River Oaks Park

The park playground is completely fenced in with multiple slides and swings as well as an open area with grass. The park is pretty shaded with tree coverage and there are neat features like a pumpkin coach and a xylophone. There are also four tennis courts, sand volleyball and a small basketball court.

The park itself is fairly large but the fenced in playground area is smallish (but a nice enough size). It has plenty of benches. A really nice park overall with creative playground features.

First time here and we loved it! There is a ton to do and the deck with the picnic tables are super convenient with shade for sunny days... They really thought of everything. Definitely going to be coming often my son enjoyed it very much. 🤗

Cute little "pumpkin park", meant for kids but it's a perfect place to take pics if you're into pumpkins and everything fall😉

Lovely tree lined park right in between an urban part of town, which allows for an escape from the hustle and bustle. The onsite restrooms are good to have especially when visiting with children. They have 4 tennis courts, beach volleyball, basketball and jogging trails, along with a wonderful fully fenced in playground for kids to play without parents having to worry much.

Lots of shade over all the playground! Picnic tables are also covered! Parking on the street is easy and shaded as well. Park was pretty clean for the most part. A few pieces of food or wrappers from kid snacks but overall very nicely kept! Lots of squirrels too. Love this park

"Pumpkin Park", within the River Oaks Park, is great for kids around 2 to 5. It has a fence all the way around and two different gathering areas, in addition to general seating spread out through the park.

Decent parking. Plenty of open space. There’s a sand volleyball court, tennis courts, and wishing trees. It’s well groomed, so you get the best of trees and sky visibility.

It's a great park for family and specially for kids.
It has close and safe play ground for kids.

Wonderful park. Well fenced with a variety of play areas. Swings, slides, climbing, xylophone and the famous Cinderella pumpkin wagon.

There is shaded seating near the playground along with picnic tables for parties or just lunch.

Well maintained park. The park is beautifully designed. You will enjoy your time in the park. This park has things for all ages. Nice raised sitting area to eat a picnic. The wishing tree is a good initiative along with the free book library. The park also had a volleyball and basketball space. My daughter enjoyed her time at this park and we wish to visit it again soon. Recommended if you are around in the River oaks area.

River Oaks park is a beautiful park in the heart of Houston. It’s a great spot for a picnic on a nice day.

Nicely shaded area! loved it very much. We were trying to enjoy the morning before it got too hot. Ended up leaving the house a bit late so decided to go here for my first time. I couldn't get over how shaded and much cooler it was I'm sure compare the other parks around the area with less trees. Will definitely come back again.

Our daughter played on the playground. A nice place, not too hot on the slides, lots of seating for parents (can take a picnic lunch if you'd like). Has a smaller and bigger kid jungle gym, ground is covered in bark bits so watch out for splinters or pieces in your child's hair.

My toddler loves that park ! Only observation is people if you going there to enjoy with or without your kiddos. Please keep it clean ! That’s reflect yourself.

Adorable little park with seating for parents and it's all safely closed in in a quiet little neighborhood. Play structures suitable for multiple ages and lots of shade. Plus the wishing trees are SO cute.

Nice relaxing park in the middle of the city. There are several tennis courts available, plus two basketball hoops.

Awesome and safe park . Love it !

This has been one of our favorite parks since my daughter was an infant. Today we get to enjoy it with her now five and our son who is three! We started back in 2012 before the rebuild which has made it even greater! The pumpkin carriage is so wonderful...a place where the little princess and Prince can enjoy their make believe! Very family friendly and surrounded by beautiful homes and great restaurants.
