Its a big and great park. It just needs more maintenance. The water has a bad smell.

This is a good place to go walking during the day. The path is breaking loose so be careful walking at night.This is really good for bird watching.

This is a great little park. It has small walking trails. A ton of birds and a board walk. Its a great spot to take pictures. Theres a nice bridge on one side and a playground on the far other side.Most would probably spend an hour here, if you stopped to read a few signs.

This place is so nice and a great place for a photo shoot. There is a lot of trash around but other than that its beautiful.

Very poorly maintained. Could be beautiful, but wood bridges and picnic areas are rotted. Paved trails are deteriorating and have potholes where gravel is missing. Not many trash cans, and those that are here are very small. Lots of litter scattered around. Does not look to have anyone caring for this park.

It was nice, great for a run. Me and my wife used to go there when we were about 17 and 18 and now that we came back we are hitting the trails again. Memories.ps. now with our daughter ....

Lots of different wildlife to see, nice trails perfect for hiking. Again, bring mosquito spray.

I like the park just because it is nature. But, it is not what I expected. There are no bathrooms in the park. So, if you want to do a walking exercise make sure to go to the bathroom before, or do not drink water. Because otherwise you will have a bad time holding your pee. They need to put some bathrooms and clean the park. By the way I didnt saw any butterfly or birds.

Good small town marsh park. Even with the corania virus scare people remain friendly and not scared of people movements.

Loved the relaxing walk to the viewing deck. Great cactus to photograph, interesting foliage. I enjoyed all the signs describing the different flora and fauna as well as birds and butterflies in the area. My only complaint is don’t go on the weekends. There were so many photo shoots at the little bridge, it made it a little tricky to geocache.

A nice little park with a boardwalk heading towards the small beach. Enjoyed the sunset here. There isnt much to view around here but I could see this place as a nice place to meet someone or have a small date at.

We stop here each time we come to Corpus Christi. Its a nice, quiet little park with a picnic table shaded by gorgeously full mesquite trees. Theres also a decent looking playground area. I believe there are some walkway like trails but I havent explored past the table.

Nice trails. Boardwalk to OSO Bay to view birds is nice but is now overgrown and view is obstructed. I wouldnt feel comfortable walking the trails alone, seems like the homeless have a few camps set up in the brush.

My fiance and I went there to take our engagement photos. It was absolutely beautiful weather and even though it was busy with people during the golden hour, the spots we found to take our pictures were stunning and so cute! The pictures she took were beautiful and they werent even edited or touched up. Loved it!

Nice, mostly shaded walking trails, also a boardwalk that extends out over the flats along Oso bay. I wish photographers would not use confetti and glittery bits in their photo-shoots and leave them behind though. Pack it in - Pack it out, and leave it cleaner than you found it are good rules to follow at a nature preserve!

Lovely little nature park. My family enjoyed walking the trails quite a bit. We enjoyed bird watching and even saw a bunny or two. The end of the pier has so much litter, I wish they’d have a cleanup crew go out there. Photographers love the area for portrait sessions so you’ll see them out there quite a bit!

Very nice little place, great for a short peaceful walk or some wildlife photos. Walking pathway is nicely sheltered behind trees and bushes so you cant see much of the road on the other side, and leads farther away from it as you walk towards the boardwalk/beach area. Great spot for bird watching, or photography.

Beautiful place, enjoyed taking our nephew. Wish people picked up after themselves! Confetti and glitter all over near the bridge. Down side, no bathroom or wheel chair accessible entrance. People litter... Bright and shiny things fish and birds like to ingest that could kill them!.So irritated with people! Thanks to the park people who try and keep it clean. Thanks to you all!

I do like this place to go for walks or even take my kid to play in the park area. Also I decent place to go wade fishing. Only wish the City would repair the deep rutts in the parking lot. If you dont have a truck you can easily lose a muffler or bottom out in the potholes in the south end of this park

A free magical excursion surrounded by variety of birds, butterflies, dragonflies, and playful rabbits in the field along the boardwalk. The observatory view overlooking Oso Bay is amazing in early morning. The hike on the nature trail is a good workout. The city and volunteers help clean up, but we each need to do our part also to keep this gem clean & safe.

Two playgrounds and an awesome, lengthy series of trails that stretch around the bay. Unfortunately close to the road at times and the shoreline is receding over the years, but still a nice place to come.
