Marshal Scotty's Playland Park

Marshal Scotty's Playland Park is an amusement park in El Cajon featuring a railroad track, a 20-foot (6 meter) Ferris wheel, water slides, and roller coaster rides. The grounds spread across a large area with various rides and attractions.

The park was originally established in 1967 as Frasier's Frontier and operated continuously until its closure in 1998. It served multiple generations of families throughout its decades of operation.

The park transforms into a seasonal Halloween attraction, opening every Friday and Saturday in October with scare trails and themed entertainment. Visitors experience the eerie mood and unexpected surprises that the grounds offer during this time.

The grounds offer free parking for visitors, and ticket booths open during operational periods. Plan your visit during these hours and wear appropriate clothing for outdoor exploration.

The grounds remain mostly abandoned, with vintage amusement equipment still visible through the overgrown vegetation from nearby roads. These forgotten relics tell of the park's former life and create an unusual time-capsule experience.
