But well it is what it is. I like that you have the availability to rent an area in case you want to host a party such a great idea. I do recommend bringing your own roll of toilet paper roll, because obviously they run out since a lot of people go. There is also a playground next to the splash pad :)

There was not a ton of area for parents to sit in my opinion. The slides on the playground were all too hot to slide on. Wish there could've been some shade.

Best thing about the park is its away from the noisy busy roads, in fact you have to take a little side street to get to it, so it has a peaceful feel and you can recharge your eardrums and mind from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

This is an area that makes for moments of peace and calm outside of the typical suburb chaos of the town.

Wow, I had been to this park many times back in the day, but I had NO idea they had hiking trails,…read morecaves to explore, and even a disc golf course. The caves - not really caves, they're more like crevices to explore. They aren't more than 15 feet deep and the sun lights them up fairly well, so don't be 'escared (yes, I said 'escared). Getting to them can be tough if there is water in the normally dry creek bed. You'll have to traverse a VERY steep uphill trail to get to them. The cool thing about the trails here, is that you get a little bit of everything. Some paved trails, some smooth dirt trails with lots of berms and hills that are great fun for mountain bikers (but won't tear your expensive rig up). Look for these hills near hole 9 on the disc golf course (it's hidden in the woods). Take Side Trail A (creative name, right?) to get a good view of the creek when there's water in it, and take the Blue Angel Loop if you want to walk or ride on loose river rock. Signage isn't too bad, but I do recommend printing a map before you go. https://www.universalcitytexas.com/DocumentCenter/View/2544/UniversalCity_TrailMap_11x17?bidId= The strangest thing is, this park measures the trails in feet instead of miles - what, what??? I've never seen trails measured in feet. If you hit all of the trails, you can get 6 to 7 miles in. You can park at Red Horse Park, Veterans Park, or at UC Municipal Park - they're all connected to the trails. I'm amazed at the diversity of the trail system in this park. And oh yeah, they have a covered basketball pavilion, baseball diamonds, LOTS of space to run around in and even fly kites. No power lines around, so your kite won't get hung up on a line.

The trail map shows two very short trails (.04 and .05 miles), but we managed to get in 4 miles by veering off the dirt trail onto unmarked trails. The main paved trail is shaded about 50% of the way and the dirt/rock trail is not shaded at all (unless you veer off into the woods like we did). There's a small creek that runs along the dirt trail so we saw lots of people fishing. (The water is gross so it's not suitable for swimming.) Lots of parking and some historical buildings to see. Overall a great find--we'll be back.
