    One of the most crappy dog parks I've ever seen and been to. No water for drinking/playing, no grass to run in, small... I can go on. It's just no nice...

    I went to this park this morning for the 38th Annual K-9 Fun Run & Walk. It was to raise money for the Houston Humane Society. I can't think a better cause. So many dogs are in need of home, medicine attention & love. I was invited by one of my yelp friends. I was in heaven-- so many dogs! I wanted to pet them all. (And I tried too) The turn out was wonderful. The weather could not have been more perfect for this event. Sunny, nice breeze. The park has a nice track to walk around and the park looked well maintained. All and all --- great company, great park, great charity, and love all the dogs!!!! I hope they raised a ton of money for all these animals in need.

    Dog park is kept in good condition. Visitors do a good job at following the rules which helps keep everything looking nice.

    This park must have once been an awesome place for your dogs..... well it isn't anymore!!! Poop everywhere No agility No grass It's disgusting and sad. The park alone doesn't even look kept up! I would save the time and go to bill archer!

    White Oak Bayou lots of green space a frisbee golf course, skateboard ramps, a pool and bike trails. It is well maintained. More parking and less of a crowd than, Buffalo Bayou, Memorial Park, and Herman Park. I come here frequently as I live within walking distance. I walk an 80# Pitbull and never have any problems. All these activities coexist easily there are restaurants close by.

    The people seemed friendly, but I got bit by someone's pit after they had leashed him and I was trying to guide my dog away from them. No apology. No check in. They just left after what happened. I was bleeding lol.... Its a small injury and rather than press charges and someone lose their dog I'll deal with it, but they handled that horribly and had it been my dog biting them I feel like things would've been different.

    Small dog park.

    First dog park I've ever been to so it's hard to compare to anything else but my experience was a good one. Awesome that they had a section for the small dogs and since I was there for 2 hours I met some very nice people.

    My dogs enjoying the shade at the dog park!

    Review for TCJ Dog Park (a part of the greenway) TC Jester is actually my favorite park. I was going to Danny Jackson and when I tried TCJ I noticed that my dogs liked it a lot more. First, there's a lot more shade due to mature trees in the area. Also, the ground cover is mulch which provides stimulation. The area has more squirrels and birds which my dogs love to chase. There are shaded areas with benches. The people at the park are mostly from the local neighborhood which does give the group of regulars a different flavor than the folks at Danny Jackson. I think TCJ tends to have a more mature crowd in general

    Really not much to it. The walking trails are pretty! But the actual dog park part just wasn't what I expected.

    The Houston Cistern at Buffalo Bayou Park is not only an amazing piece of Houston history but also…read morea wonderful structure to tour. In a city that is known for tearing down and paving over so much of our history, it is wonderful that this was saved and has been made into a place that visitors can visit and experience. I went with some friends from Kingwood on a Photo Walk of the area, we were lucky that the light and sound experience was still going on, each column in the cistern has LED lighting that changes to the tune of some aethereal music playing silently, the acoustics of the cistern make it sound so beautiful and mesmerizing. When you purchase your ticket online you choose one of the available times, upon entry they give you 30 minutes, the time passed quickly. Be ready if you are taking pictures or better yet, a video. Smart phones work great but you might consider turning off auto focus and just focusing manually if you know how because when it gets dark for a moment and then the lights come on most cameras auto focus has to search for focus so it goes in and out of focus. When you leave, there is a skateboard park up above and worth some time for taking pictures of the acrobatic skating going on.

The event was called Diner en Blanc an all white exclusive event, with pictures, food, live bands, fashion shows and more. Their catering was ok but for 100 pp for food is a hard no for me. The group we were with was ok had higher hopes but that's the ultra friendly side of me talking It was at buffalo bayou park but because of the rain lots of people (Angela) clothes were filthy There was nothing missed, our people showed up and showed out. The live band was very good, music for all age groups. Now our people forget what copy paper white looks like, they clearly said no off white, beige, cream, egg shell but they had all shades of whitish

Here and there, I spotted a delicate cherry blossom and a few early blooms, though I wish I had visited at the peak of flower season. The garden itself is exquisitely designed and every corner seems crafted for peace, and I truly enjoyed the calm atmosphere. It felt like a small escape from the city hustle. That said, I did notice the cleanliness was a bit of an issue; the garden could definitely use some extra care to keep it pristine. Another small drawback was the restroom situation. There are only two available, and both were quite busy, so I ended up waiting a while and eventually decided it wasn't worth it. Still, the park draws a lovely crowd with people come to stroll, reflect, and soak in the beauty. If I'm in Houston again at a better time, I'll absolutely return to see the garden in full bloom. It has so much potential, and with a little more attention to detail, it could be a true hidden gem.
