Beautiful park with great open areas and scenic tree lines. The OKC Memorial is well done and a great place to reflect and remember as well. You also have the opportunity to learn a little about Washington Irving while enjoying the ourdoors.

Nice park we had my daughters very simple wedding there and it was pretty nice to walk the trails and just get a little bit of exercise or a beautiful place to take family pictures its not normally crowded and convenient to get to. I love to go here for just a relaxing day with the kiddo weve also taken family pictures here and they always turn out great would be a great place to have a picnic or family gathering. Nice picnic tables covered and uncovered throughout the park.

Itd be a decent park without the smell of sewage which comes from the treatment plant to the West. I wish Bixby would do something about the stench. I dont look forward to driving down S Memorial on the River bridge because of it.

A really nice park. Great place for the annual Bixby BBQ & Blues Festival.

Review №33

Very nice park, clean and landscaping appears to be kept up well. The 9-11 memorial is nice, but the plaques need to be redone, as its getting hard to read them.

Ca
Review №34

Went there for an event. Park was a little muddy due to the rain, but they put hay down which was a good thing. I had a lot of fun.

Ma
Review №35

From the bridge looking down all you see is a driveway into small parking lot area. You have to drive down into the park to see how really large this beautiful park actually is. Replete with canopy covered picnic tables, hiking/biking trails, and historical markers describing the rich history of this site.The park also hosts a very somber and emotionally moving 911 memorial with a mounted section of a twisted and bent steel I-beam recovered from the wreckage of the World Trade Center site.

Review №37

A peaceful serene place to relax and feed birds or squirrels, walk a trail, bike, or enjoy the Washington Irving half house and stage. The trees are well developed, the main path is lit up at night, and strategic trash cans help keep the park very clean. The only eyesore is the water treatment at the back of the park where the only thing blocking it visually is a chain link fence.

Great small town park. 9/11 memorial Jogging trail connects to larger network 2 going north and 1 south. Washington Irving history building. Butterfly exhibit. Bathrooms & water fountain. Well kept flower beds thanks to the Bixby Rotary club. Wildlife can often be seen early AM. Squirrels, rabbits and birds all day. Arborist info around the main trail too.

Review №47

Decent for family photos or walking, but with limits.This is a great place for walking or quiet visitation. The ponds seen in the satellite view are not reachable. Instead theyre fenced off with barbed wire topped fences.While its very open, theres not a variety of landscape features or design. Theres a handful of great trees for photos, but not much in the way of flowers or bushes.
