My husband and I were looking for a pier fishing spot and this was one of the places we found on the internet. It's not too far from us so we thought to check it out. It was a beautiful, sunny day yesterday and there were people out but not overly crowded. There are plenty of ducks to feed and even turtles in the water. There's a smaller pond on the side with a fountain and a handicap pier. There's a gazebo that was roped off due to covid. We didn't check out the trails, perhaps next time. There were several picnic tables around the park and some under the shade. It was good to see people enjoying the outdoors. There's a sign with the types of fish in the lake but unfortunately, we had no luck with fishing. There was a guy fishing with a net that had weights. He got some small bass that he'll use for bait. read more

Went there for the first time this last Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed the visit! Parking was easy to find, the park was clean, the people I did see were friendly and all the equipment I noticed seemed in good condition. I loved that there were so many activities available and plan on bring my kids to it next week! read more

Great park, my dog and I had a lot of fun. Parking is abundant and there's lots of room. read more

I just discovered this park. This place will be my place to get my step in. This park has a long walk trail . You can see a little lake in the middle with ducks, a huge playground with for the kids, a lot of area with picnic table. This is definitely a family spot. read more

My mother first visited this park in San Antonio's northeast area and I wish I had visited it sooner. It's just a lovely place to spend a Sunday afternoon for a walk, or visit in the morning during the week when it's quieter. There are some signs for snakes in the area, but I've never come across any. Our family dog really enjoys chasing the ducks back to the water, which is fun to watch. (He's not a real hunter, so don't worry. He just wants to make friends with ALL the animals, even skunks.) For those who need a little exercise, the trails aren't very long... Maybe about 1.5 miles. But do a couple laps and you have a workout! For the teens, there's a little skate park to hangout, and some areas for sports. All in all, a great space to spend an afternoon. read more

Great area, easily accessible parking. Solid little fishing area, tons of walking paths, basketball courts, skate park, baseball fields, disc golf and so much more. Love wandering around the paths and checking out all the different types of birds that roam the area. Faves are all the ducks that chill near the fishing spots. Anyway there's something for everybody to do and its always clean. What more could you ask for? read more

There are two entrances. If you are looking for grills/pavilion don't enter by Papa John's. Bought some burgers at HEB after church and put them on the grill. The bottom had deteriorated so had to work around but parks/playground good for kids. read more

This park is one of the best spots to get a walk/run in. There's a huge pond that lets you enjoy the serene environment around you. The wildlife includes LOTS of ducks. It's about 1.5 miles per loop.

The park: (5 stars) the park offers multiple playgrounds, football fields, baseball fields, a basketball court, 2 separate 18-19 hole disc golf courses, a pavilion, lots of open grass space, a large pond, and a smaller duck pond. Overall it is a great space to do just about anything. Both disc golf courses: both course offer concrete tee off areas, a short tee and a long tee. Each hole offers a sign that shows your distance, par, and where to throw the disc. At the end of each hole there is a sign pointing you to the short and long tee for the following hole. Super easy to follow, well laid out, and an easily walkable course. Yellow disc golf course: (5 stars) this course offers the perfect mix of long vs. short holes. The course doesn't have trees all around making it incredibly fun for almost all skill levels. There are a few holes tucked in the trees that require more technical abilities, but not to the point where a novice couldn't complete the hole. Overall, best course I have ever played. Green disc golf course: (3 stars) the first 7 holes are pretty much an open field. There aren't many obstacles occluding visibility to the hole. One of these is also 900+ feet and make it a very long hole for those who can't throw that far. Three holes are around the lake, and would be pretty difficult shots for a beginner. I myself started on my own makeshift tee to avoid throwing over the lake. The back holes (11-18) are more wooded and much more fun to play. Some of these are through tunnels of trees and are tight and technical. The course was well laid out, but not well designed in my opinion. read more

Best park in the area. Great for hiking and dog walking. The lake is not huge but very nice. I don't fish but I've been told the fishing is good. No motor boats but I see people on their Kayaks on occasion. Plenty of sports fields for the kids. And 2 playgrounds for the little ones. It's in the older section of Live Oak and it's worth the trip. Oh, plenty of ducks and deer. Bring your deer corn early mornings. Can't miss disc golf! read more

We love biking out on the trails. My new favorite activity is to get the kayak out on the lake. Very nice hidden area to get into the shade and just relax and enjoy nature. read more

Live Oak Park - Parks Near Me - Live Oak, Texas

Friendly little park away from the busy life. Has a football field, 3 softball fields, lots of parking, nice shade trees, a playground for kids and a good sized pond, which is really a conservation reservoir. Good for picnics, walking, jogging, light hiking or just chilling. Or go ahead and get your barbecue on. Wheels pass on by the concrete forms, the trees stand tall on the islands of green basking in the warm midday sun. Feathered friends pass on by, as the trees reach up high and branches sway in the breeze as the wind cools the air by a couple of degrees. - InkDropK read more

We have been using this park for 11 years now and I finally get to review it here! This park offers something for everyone - a very large fishing pond/lake, disc/Frisbee golf, covered pavilions, and playgrounds. The lake has a pier and three or four land peninsulas to fish from. They even have a small retaining pond that they stock with catfish once a year and then let the little ones fish from. There are football/soccer fields and at least three baseball diamonds - might be four but I can't recall. The park has real bathrooms with running water - no outhouses at this park... The park is kept very clean and it is a park that you feel safe in. read more

This is a great park with nice walking trails. They have ponds to fish, skate park, football field, and soft ball fields

The absolute best part of the Live Oak Park is the disc golf - the course is huge, and really well laid out - but it's just a great park, period. Jogging/biking trails intertwine throughout the wooded areas of the golf course and the park itself, wrapping around and through the campus of Northeast Lakeview College. (It's more like a big pond that view is actually of, but I suppose "Lakeview" is more poetic) The pond-lake is stocked, I believe, but fishing is allowed, I *know*. There are a couple of little docks that stretch out into it, and the banks are usually lined with beautiful water lilies. Many varieties of wildlife are attracted to it - makes for some great scenery whilst picnicking after a run or round of disc golf. There are several huge covered pavillions - perfect for graduation parties and the like - next to a great playscape for the Littles, fields for soccer/football/baseball, and (squeeee!) Brick & mortar restrooms. The City of Live Oak often stages events here, like fishing derbies or outdoor Movies in the Park. It's just a great centerpiece for a great community. read more

This is a great park. Stroll around the water or go to the playground! There is a skate park for the riff raff, a great play area for littles, fishing, some disc golf, and clean rest rooms. We would also bring our well behaved (hehehe, leashed) pup to chase the ducks! Enjoy. read more

The park itself is nice, but if you are looking to fish in the lake don't expect much. You'll likely catch a sunburn, maybe a cat fish if you are lucky. I was there years ago when there were lily pads, and it actually had a habitat for fish. Turtles, frogs, tadpoles, crawdads, and other creatures were abundant, but today with the vegetation having been eradicated and it's low water level, it's little more than a large mud hole. It's sad it hasn't been developed to support fishing. There is an abundance of waterfowl at times so take some binoculars if you go. read more

Update! They did finish most of the trail around the lake! Yay! Which I do appreciate much... (so do my dogs) yet still no Live Oak Dog Park. See how I write that in caps? Like it's official and everything... because I am not giving up on the dog park idea. I will go back to the city and request it again! If we get a dog park, I will change my rating to 5 stars! But better yet, we will have a lot of happy Live Oak citizen dog owners! read more

The trail loop around the park us about 1 mile. Half of it is not shaded so be prepared. The park of clean and not crowded. There were a lot of folks fishing. The playground was clean and easily accessible. There is a lot of parking available. read more

Had the day off and we decided to enjoy a walk with our dogs and play disc golf as well. Pretty clean, great scenery, nice disc golf trail, trash cans spread out. The ONLY thing I would've liked is if it was a little more dog friendly. Dog water stations would be really nice, especially on the trail and some doggie poop bag stations would be nice too. All in all, it's a super nice park and trail. read more

Live Oak Park - Parks Near Me - Live Oak, Texas

This is one of my favorite parks in the area. It is always so quiet and there is so much to do. My brother and I meet here, because it is a good half way point for the kids and we will play a few rounds of disc golf. This park is really well known for disc golf because it is set up very nicely and well maintained. The playgrounds are great. The kids always have a good time on the slides and run around alike with friendly dogs that come to visit with their owners. On the nicest days in San Antonio, this is the place I would like to be at the most. It feels really safe here and although there are no trails for runners (that I know of so far), it is a family friendly place. read more

Love the park but as far as speaking to Live Oak office, they are rude and heartless! I been calling them for weeks leaving voicemails and no one ever returned my calls and the birthday party is in 4 days with invitations already RSVP'd. all I wanted to be sure is if we could have a game truck that would take up just about 2 parking spots, that's it! and for only 2 hours but when a rude woman and finally today she continued to make smart remarks and that it would be up to Max to say if we could have it and I asked if he could just take into consideration this one time since it was close in time and they still just said No, but honestly her attitude was the worst! they could've even charged me and I would've been fine with it but instead she tried to belittle me and make her remarks , shame on you live oak! you ruined a kids birthday party this weekend because you couldn't get back to me in a timely manner, hope you don't do it again! read more

Nice Park, I didn't get to really experience all the park had to offer. There was a trail and sorts but I was there to help my son's basketball team with a BBQ fundraiser. So I was there to work and pass out plates. It was a huge park with swings, child playground and basketball courts, perfect for a day out for BBQin, fishing in the lake or just some family fun in the sun! read more

Alisa and Jamie hit it right on the nose. This is a great, large, wide-open park, with plenty of things (and space) for adults and kids to play. (Although, to somewhat correct Alisa, I think there is a running trail. I don't know how far it goes though, so it might just be a short-ish path to a small pier alongside the lake. But I did see joggers on it when I was there last.) I particularly liked that there were numerous ducks, swans, and cranes in the lake. The disc golf course is excellent, and takes you all over the large park. There're at least three playgrounds for kids -- one relatively simple for younger kids, and two modern, 'complex' playgrounds (complete with rubber bits covering the ground for safety) for 5-12 year olds. There're also numerous grill sites and, for some reason, several electrical outlets, which I guess could come in handy for something. Parking seems relatively limited, so I'm not sure how easy it would be to squeeze in here on a busy day. But whenever/wherever you were parked, this place has more than enough space for everyone! read more

Nicely maintained park with all one could expect, playgrounds, shaded picnic areas, grills, and a great pond with well maintained walking trails. read more

I'd like to start off by saying this review is completely about the disc golf course. The course has some serious potential, but it needs more work. One thing I did enjoy about this course was it's 28 unique holes. However, they aren't laid out very well. The holes themselves are very enjoyable, and range in three difficulty levels, the first 9 being relatively easy, the middle 10 of a medium difficulty, and the last 9 becoming rather difficult for the most part. However, finding the goal for some holes can prove challenging, and finding the next hole proved extremely challenging a few times. Perhaps a map at the start of the course, showing the layout of the 28 holes? Second, the course needs to be better maintained. Multiple signs showing the layout of the hole had been removed, and the majority of the signs used to show the hole number from a distance were broken and withered from age. All that aside, the course is a good one to check out if you are a player looking for a challenge. Just make sure you either go with someone who knows the course, or go with a few hours to kill. read more

There is so much to do at this park. 2 different play grounds (one for younger kids and one for older kids), skate park and of course a lake to feed ducks or just relax and enjoy the scenery. The park is very well maintained and is a great place to bring the family. read more

This is a great park. Several playgrounds spread out amoung pavillions and a lake for fishing. They even have 18 rounds of frisbee golf. Lots of room to let your dogs run and have a good time. Definately a great find after recently moving to the area. The park is just off of 35 and Topperwein/Judson... such a great find... read more

Great open park where you can get a good hike with a view. Clean with everything you can think of, baseball fields, basketball, football field, fishing, trails, etc read more

Been coming to this park for a while now and I really enjoy it. I love that there are benches and tables where you can sit to take in the scenery. The trail is used for walking, biking, running, and dog walking. It's paved almost entirely. I enjoy walking up the bridge that has a spot where you can take in the view of the lake. It's quite beautiful. Been fishing here and never caught anything and wonder if there are any fish in there hmmm. There is an assortment of bird life which people feed so they will walk up to you expecting you to feed them so if you have a phobia of birds attacking you you might wanna find a place with no birds cause they are everywhere except early in the morning. The popo frequent the park as well. There are two entrances to the park. One side has a basketball court, a large field used for soccer and football and a playground area. The other side has the lake and the freshly manicured baseball fields. There are two bathrooms that always have toilet paper thanks to the park custodian who diligently makes sure the bathrooms smell nice. People leave their trash which I know is irksome to the nice custodian so if you go take your trash with you or throw it in one of the many trash receptacles that the nice man also takes out. I never see him with anyone so if you know a willing person let them know he might need the help. I don't frequent as much as I used to due to anxiety cause this world needs healing :( but I do go to look at the lake it really is beautiful. Check it out you won't be disappointed! read more

This is a beautiful park! There is so much to do here and something for everyone. They have a football field, baseball/softball fields, basketball, playgrounds, fishing in the lake or pond, trails, picnic tables and so much more! For all the dog families out there it is dog friendly but they must stay on their leash. There isn't a dog park for them but they are more than welcome at the park. Please bring your own poop bags as they are not provided at the park. Fishing in the lake or pond is allowed but no swimming for anyone, including your furbabies. He swans and ducks are so cool as well as the turtles! Plenty of parking would be great for small get togethers or picnics. More than one playground so there's lots of room for kids at all ages to play. Reason for 4 stars is because there's no swimming. It's such an open lake and pond it would be awesome if doggies were allowed to swim! read more

This is a beautiful park. There's a lot of greenery here. There is adequate parking, nice playgrounds, and a cool pond to check out. The trail is also nice and long. However, I really wish that they would complete the trail! It would really help those of us joggers with strollers. read more
