    eh not a horrible park but the guys here kinda suck except Gus and Jesse :/ the bowls are pretty…read morevicious tho so if you've never dropped in i don't recommend trying it for the first time here lmao, the park is also kinda stretched out so the first thing you'll see is the street section, there's a pump track that leads into a kicker ramp and a few manual pads and ledges, then if you go into the back there are two bowls, one is like a mini bowl that leads into a bigger one and then there's like an isolated bowl with pool coping too but overall it's not a bad park, go at like 8 am cuz there's no one there but i guarantee that most beginners will get absolutely slammed by everything. if you want a slightly more forgiving park i recommend williamson park in bryan, it's just behind legends event center

    Designed for all skill levels, this competition-quality skate park on Rock Prairie Road in College…read moreStation, TX consists of a large pro-style flow bowl, a pool bowl with tile and pool coping, and a long linear street course with hundreds of feet of unique terrain and scalable elements. Other features include water fountains, benches and a shaded patio area for spectators. Under sunny skies and amid a festival-like atmosphere, the City of College Station on Saturday, Sept. 3, 2011 officially opened and named its newest attraction: The G. Hysmith Skate Park. The park's namesake is Garrett Hysmith, an energetic College Station boy who, by the time he died in 2005 at age 13, had bravely fought brain cancer for four years. He loved music and Boy Scouts, but was most passionate about skateboarding. Two years after his death, his closest friends embarked on what they would dub Operation Garrett: Convincing the College Station City Council to include a skate park as part of a bond package that would go before voters. In 2008, 65 percent of those voters embraced the idea at the ballot box. Operation Garrett would, indeed, create a proper place for skateboarders -- a $920,000 facility -- to safely practice and perfect their sport.

    This park is massive we didn't even get a chance to explore all they offered…read more We parked near Flying Horses Carousal which is located next to the large Finke pavilion that has a huge fan in the center while already providing a great place for shade to escape the humid summer temp. There were several park structures near the pavilion, from swings, slides, spider web jungle gyms. There were two buildings near that I believe you could rent out for parties. Bathrooms are a stones throw and were air conditioned and clean. We could see the skate park from where we were along with additional play areas, across the street you can see the splash pad. There is "story walk" trail you can take that leads to or from the Library situated at the top of the hill. Definitely take a stop at the carousal if it's open it's only a dollar a person to ride, and really quite a splendor to oh and ah over. Tons of shade, great place for a picnic, and to get some energy out. Can't wait to visit again with my family.

    This park is really nice! It's got several playgrounds with slides, monkey bars, rock climbing, and…read morerope climbing. Various sections have a cover to block the sun. There's a restroom and venue building for parties. There's a huge canopy like structure for parties as well. There's a large fountain nearby that I didn't get to explore. My son came here after his field trip to the Blue Bell factory, which he also loved. We will certainly be back with the whole family soon!

We have set up hammocks in the area to further connect with nature. Recently, I embarked on a hike, enjoying a leisurely walk while observing wildlife, including a bunny. Following the hike, I relaxed and appreciated the water. During one visit, I encountered a diver who collected various items. Also have a place to rinse off and change. Camping sites and boating are available to rent. The park's safety is assured through routine checks by the rangers, which I find reassuring. Although alligators were spotted, they maintained a distance.

Since it was a holiday, it was booked way in advance and I would highly recommend everyone to do that. It's a bit of a drive from Houston, but once inside, I felt it was worth it. I had no idea it was even out here. There are fees to enter as well as fees for areas you want to rent for yourself. Huntsville State Park is located in the Sam Houston National Forest and is filled with beautiful trees, hiking trails and lakes. On the lake, you can fish, canoe and even swim. There is a designated spot for swimming which we saw but did not partake in. There is no lifeguard, so swim at your own risk and beware of the alligators. There are plenty of trails that can keep you busy for days. If you're into camping, there have plenty of campsites, including some screened shelter. The screened shelter plot we rented was spacious and had amenities like picnic tables, grill, water hookup, amp hookup, and restrooms and shower facilities nearby. It was a great setup for our large group. We had plenty of space to play, set up some little pools for the kiddos and eat without anybody being right on top of us. After coming here, I realized I need to take advantage of all the state parks in our amazing state and escape the hustle and bustle of the city every once in awhile. I would visit this place again for sure.
