This complex is beautiful…read more There is so much to do from volleyball, soccer, baseball/softball, biking, hiking, you name it you can do it here. I guess that's the beauty of being OTL and having so much land to develop. It is very clean and family friendly. Lots of parking space and the lots are very well lit for even evening usage. The 8+ baseball fields were very well maintained and have their own lighting. Grass manages to stay green even in this Houston heat.

The sidewalk led from the main parking lot into the bigger lot with the water tower. They have restrooms on site that were open and subpar clean. Of course, there's a dog park and a children playground. A fairly big park including a baseball field area. Pretty basic and standard park. Nothing more to do or enjoy. Very simple.

This is a great park. It really is. This isn't just one park; this park is combined with two parks:…read moreDixie Farm Road Park and Blackhawk Hike and Bike. Yes, you will need to walk a couple of miles to get there, but of course you will eventually get there. The path isn't that narrow; it doesn't hurt to walk in the grass when someone with a bike is travelling through. The scenery is alright; there isn't much. You have the bayou that runs between. If you are walking left towards Dixie Farm Park then you will run into Weber Elementary on the opposite side there are KB homes that all look the same. If you walk towards the right then you will find the backyards of some Sagemont houses; also you'll notice the path elevation change and you find yourself walking under a bridge. This park has been in the neighborhood for a good while; it was surely there when I was a kid. I love the fact that I live so near the park that I don't even have to drive here. I can just start walking from my house; burn a lot of calories and lose some more weight! That's the best! Anywho, they have playgrounds for the adults and kids; hint if you wanna play on it and you are an adult just go when the parents or kids aren't around. If you go try to play with their kids; they will definitely judge you! So, just go when no kids and their annoying parents aren't there. There are lots of parking! Though, no dog parks here; just walk your baby instead.

This park is combined in 3 different parks: Dixie Farm, Clear Brook, and Bishop park. The trails…read morerun from one park to another. It starts near Hall Rd and ends at Dixie Farm park. It has trails in park and in between, jungle gym, work out stations, benches, and a gazebo. This park is also a dumping spot for unwanted dogs and puppies. Just last night someone dropped off 10 or so dogs: mother and her puppies. It is near Blackhawk and Scarsdale. M.U.D water and Weber school is around it. It has no lakes, just a bayou and if it floods a little overflow and that's about it. No real wildlife. All land in different areas I guess needs a different name, but it is all the same. Hours are 10p to 5a.

They were kind of disappointed with the size of the playground. Pales in comparison with Challenger 7 Memorial Park. Just one medium/large play structure with two slides and some monkey bars. Maybe one step up from what you would find in a typical neighborhood park. But has a lot of soccer fields and covered basketball courts. And it appears to have a retention pond for fishing. However it's not properly enclosed and the sides are rather steep, so keep an eye on the little ones!

Wilson Memorial Park, I frequent often, mostly because this is where my son's soccer team has been…read morepracticing since the beginning of time. Close to home, and it's quick to get to. The kids can let out the energy fast. My least favorite park of them all. Wilson Memorial has a public pool. I have never brought my children here, please let me know what you think of it. A pond surrounds the pool area. Home to the local ducks, which are fun to watch, and will chase you if they smell a morsel of food on you. Home to just as many turtles too, and they won't chase you no matter what you smell like. Sadly, also home to the litter left behind by the less considerate of our local parks and environment. The covered basketball area seems to be quite popular. We usually hang across the way, at the playground, on days that soccer isn't involved. I bring a blanket and lay out where the least amount of trash can be seen by the pond. Otherwise you will find us on the nice big soccer field with the rest of the team. They have been practicing here for years. The baseball field and soccer field are near each other. Parking is limited in this area. Arrive early, but if you miss parking here, there is ample parking between the playground and basketball area. Wilson Memorial Park could really use a track. Most importantly, the park grounds could really use some tender loving care. Sometimes even the ducks need TLC. I've seen some sickly ones because of the litter. I've made my complaints directly to park personnel. In all of the years we been coming here, we've never used the porta potties. If I or the kids gotta go, we gotta leave. They may have clean restrooms near the pool building, I just haven't bothered. Please keep our parks clean and green!

Well, keep driving around the pond and to the back.....oh yeah, that's more like it! There's a running/walking trail, tons of picnic tables with grills, a covered pavilion, a disc golf course (Frisbee golf? I'm not sure what it's called, but I always see people playing!), a playground, a fishing pier, a volleyball court and a baseball field and plenty of trash cans with dog pooper-scooper stations so you have no excuse to not pick up after your pet! They do allow dogs off the leash here but please be a responsible pet owner and clean up after your pet! It's usually not real busy mostly because not too many people know it's here except for the people in the neighborhood. Wait. I may have just messed that up, huh? lol It's within walking distance of my work so I like to come here at lunch and walk around the trail. It's very well maintained and partly cement and partly small rock. It can get muddy after a rain of course, but that's everywhere. And they did build a wood bridge over a spot that was always flooding, which is nice. If you're in the area and want a nice, well-maintained park to have a picnic, or just walk around and take in the sights (the trail runs along part of Taylor Lake which is part of Galveston Bay), this a great place for that!
