This is one of the better places in town for young children and small family groups for a picnic. It is small and quiet and there is limited playground equipment so it’s easy to keep an eye on your children while they play. Be sure to pay close attention because the playground area is not fenced and there is a creek nearby. The creek is usually shallow and fun to look at, but it will flood when it rains, sometimes up to the street. Stay away from this park if there is a big rain.
This park has 3 regular swings, 1 baby/toddler swing, a tire swing, a climbing area with slide, and a shelter with picnic tables. This is also a good park to visit for harvest time during both pecan and pear season. Tasty!
PROBLEM: no restrooms here.
SOLUTION: City of Nacogdoches Visitor’s Center is only about 3 blocks away (close enough to walk) and they have very fabulous restrooms and interesting exhibits and lots of fliers about other attractions in the area.
PROBLEM: Limited Parking (only 4 parking places)
SOLUTION: Most people don’t seem to know about this park, so these spots are usually open. Also, there is a parking lot close by in the downtown area.
Some are simple, and some are fancy, all are fun!
It is okay to pick these up. You can keep them, or trade with a friend, or re-hide them somewhere else. A lot of people are doing this in Nacogdoches.
