Love this place! Great for everyone! Clean restrooms, nice paved walking/running/biking path. Lots of wildlife to see. You can go Kayaking and fishing. Ive caught quite a few perch here.

Beautiful park! Great place to get out with my kids and enjoy nature and have a picnic

This is a lovely place for an hour jog, complete with fishing piers and ponds. It’s quite popularity with local outdoorsy folk, but not crowded... a lovely spot of nature in the ‘burbs...

Nice walking/jogging park. Several docks and paths for fishing. Doesnt seem like youre literally right under 249...several places to eat nearby if you dint catch any fish. And NICE CLEAN RESTROOMS

I came here and walked 2-3 times a week. Not too crowded of people. I like it. Close to my house.

Very relaxing and close to home. I enjoyed kayaking and jogging here. I hope it rains soon because the water level needs to be higher.

One of the larger & more interesting parks in the area. Long walking and biking paths. Plenty of shade. Incredible numbers of birds large & small, and turtles. Recently found a turtle in the woods here - thought she had wandered far from the lake & Id help her back. Picked her up and... shed managed to dig a 6 - 8 inch deep hole with her tail which she was laying eggs in.Havent seen any gators, and Ive been looking. But after reading other reviews I WILL keep my 13lb dog leashed.

This is a great place for a long walk or a jog. We saw plenty of people fishing, riding bikes, and enjoying the picnic grounds as well. The views of the lakes were great and seeing the many birds that inhabit the area was fun. The bathroom facilities were clean. We were a little disappointed, because we came for a hike and to get away from the city. However, we could hear traffic the whole time and see it at points. I guess we shouldn’t have been surprised as it IS in the middle of the city, but, based on other reviews, we thought it would be a bit more secluded. Still happy we went and we may be back for the jogging!

I visited today and it was all worth it. We had a picnic, walked the trail for an hour, experience a bonfire. Saw people fishing. My son saw an armadillo inches of distance. It was relaxing and kept social distancing.

Nice clean little park, wide paved trail. Fishing, volleyball, fire pit and more. The bad news is the sound of cars on the freeway.

Very nice 2 mile walk around the pond.

Beautiful park with a very nice paved trail to walk or jog. Plenty of shade and also a few very nice unpaved trails closer to the lake. Easy access and plenty of parking space.

This park is so beautiful and peaceful! My go to for some quiet time alone or a good walk with the family! I always recommend it!!

Nice walking path, ptetty good trail. It is well maintained which is a plus. The only negative is the parking availability, seems very limited for the area and the popularity of it.

Its is a really good place ️ We saw some turtles and some armadillos and its a great place for fishing with many types of fish

Beautiful animals. Its been a while i havent been at this park now its cleaner and has more nice benches.

This is a nice place to walk, run, bike, sit, or rollerblade year-round. The paved path is cut through the woods and is mostly shady along a body of water where visitors can kayak, canoe, and fish. Dogs are welcome on a leash. During non-COVID-19 times, there are water bottle fill stations, benches, swings, volleyball court, and book donation/borrowing cubby. Parking is usually ample, but on some weekends and holidays, it can be scarce.

Love this park, so relaxing and the views of the water are nice. If youre lucky you might even catch a glance of an alligator on the adjacent bayou below.

A superb serene nature park nestled in city..close to vintage park..good place to go and spend your weekend .. with a book, Barbecue, or let the kids play around and have a picnic

This place is great! Fishing, walking, running, biking, kayaking or just chilling. The lake isnt too deep so its good for kayaking and just watching the wildlife right next to you. Plenty of shade for hot days, for walking and on the water as well. Weve been here several times since we got our new kayaks and we will be here a lot more often. Not sure if they stock the lake, but it would be awesome if there was a little better fishing. Its still relatively young, so well just have to give it time.Bathrooms are clean but hot, and they offer 5 gallon jugs of water along the path for you to fill up your bottle. The rangers we have interacted with have been really nice.For the goofy folks I see tossing balls for their dogs to get in the water, bear in mind there ARE alligators in the water.

Amazing park. Beautiful trail surrounded by nature for 1.7 miles. Great crowd. Perfect for photoshoots. There is canoeing option there too. There is a small area enclosed to keep the dogs. There is a volleyball court too. Also found a beautiful picnic spot inside the hidden trails. Im loving this park.

This is my honey comb hide out! Love to go here and just enjoy nature while Im actively working out most of the times. But its just a good place to relax and enjoy the beauty of Gods creation!

Great shady place for a walk. Nice big paved trail with tress in abundance

Beautiful park. Great trail. Can kayak or canoe there. Lots of park events happen there such as yoga.

Cool, wonderful surprise park! Lake, fishing, jogging trails, family friendly. Leashed petsQuite beautiful, what a find!

Great escape from city, without actually escaping the city! Great for walks, bike rides and skating.

Good place to spend the day with either a picnic or just fishing. The paved walking path goes completely around the lake. Only 4 stars could improve cutting some low hanging tree branches around the fishing sites.

Always clean and well taken care of. Lots of deputy constables patrolling as well so you don’t have to worry about vehicle burglaries. The only thing I’d like to see is more playgrounds for kids. They have one but another over towards where the fire department used to be would be nice.

Beautifully maintained park and trails so close to home make this one of my favorite places to visit any time of the year. Clean bathrooms with plenty of hand soap!!

Excellent place for a nice morning stroll. The 1.7 mile paved trail is easy to navigate, and has great scenery.

Great preserve with cool access to trails in and around the lake. The lakes looking a bit dry and ready for the Houston spring heavy rains.

Nice walking trail of 1.7 miles. Good pedestrian bridge view of Cypress Creek. Visitors drive in and out a little too fast...whats the hurry?

Really like this pocket park. Well done. Well cared for. Great place to relax.

Really nice place for hikes and walks. Very spacious. The scenery is beautiful! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a place to go for a run/walk. Or to simply distress. The park entrance is in front of the Chuy’s restaurant.

Enjoy this park everytime I come out here. Very relaxing & great to see others are enjoying this park too

Really a nice jewel hidden in the middle of a busy city... just the right amount of outdoor quiet and meditation also alot of space for activities

Such a great place for a walk, or jog. Or just to enjoy the scenery(: closes at 9 PM, which is very nice since its been so hot lately.

Beautiful park to walk or run on the trails, and great place to have picnics too!

Wide paved path that was level enough for me to walk with multiple sclerosis. Very safe. Good parking. Clean restrooms.

Very small but natural (for Houston) habitat preserve, a small lake with interesting shape to paddle or fish, several fishing piers, lots of shade along the lake edge, shaded paved trails to walk, jog, bike, plenty of doggy bag stations for poop pickup, bathroom facility,

Big park with paved running/biking and jogging trail around the Marshall Lake. Very beautiful. There are few fishing piers and you can also go canoeing. Along the trail you will find garbage bins and drinking-water areas (Better bring a water bottle to fill the water from the station).The park is well-maintained and clean. There is a restroom near the main parking lot.Have few dedicated parking areas. One near to the entrance and the other one near the lake and the main parking lot at the middle.

I love this place. Its always nice to go for a run and see all the cute dogs being walked. It has many things a family can do together.

Beautiful and serene with nice trail just under 2 miles great for walking with the family. The Preserve also has fishing, biking, and canoeing, and is pet-friendly.

Turtles have over run the lakes. Cant really fish here anymore. Its also FULL of people and packed all the time. Good for hiking i suppose.

Good running trails. Best for bikes and rollerblades. Only because the main trail is asphalt and not gravel. Very nice views and winding turns.

Overall a good place to run, walk with family and dogs. I think that the lake water level should have been planned to be higher and more water fountain/faucets installed along the track.

Nice open water with easy kayak put in

Fishing..was good..now they dont clean out hydrilla and they have drained it to low..

We love coming here and walking around the paths after dinner to burn off some calories. There are some lakes that you can see from the path, as well as go fishing if you want. There are lots of activities going on and can get a list of them from the bulletin boards. Lots of family activities. There is even a large family sized swing, infant swings, and a pavilion for picnics and gatherings. We mostly just like to come and walk around. Its basically right next to the Vintage area and feels like you are in the wilderness.... Without having to drive far at all. Relaxing place.

More for me to explore my family loved doing my baby girls birthday at this locations.

Beautiful preserve with a paved trail all around the lake.

Great park well taken care of. A little oasis in Houston. Fun fishing for Bass and Spotted Gar

Nice paved walking, biking, jogging trail around the water. Looks like a great place to fish. Black bass is catch and release only and youre able to keep 3 channel catfish over 12, didnt see any other restrictions. If youre in a wheelchair and want to get out on a trail and see some nature next to a body of water this is the place to do it. Lots of pick nick tables and 2 grills and a fire pit. Nice clean restrooms and trash cans. Volleyball net in the sand and a launch ramp for kayakers. Beautiful day for a hike.

Great place to exercise(run/ride bikes/kayak). It is also a fun spot to fish for pan fry fish with kids or just enjoy the ponds and nature. Definitely recommend it

Always love coming to this park. So gorgeous and peaceful and plenty of benches, clean rest rooms and water for the public around track. So lucky to live down the street from this gem!

My son and lost a rod and reel combo .Lews Carbon Fire .A catfish took off with it.We were fishing from the first pier.It was his favorite combo.He is a lefty and it is hard to find left handed bait casters.Reward if found.

Nice and quiet. Perfect for a short day rd trip to the outdoors.

Serenity personified. The park staff is so friendly. My grandson attended a week long exploration camp, they went on a trip, fished, kayaked, and learned about nature, he loved it. They have camping sessions that are so wonderful. Individuals or families can kayak, fish and learn about nature. Hands down my fav park in Houston.

Nice. The trees offer a lot of shade, walking paths were clean. The current situation has people nervous about other people, so some weird vibes from other visitors...

Great park to walk your dogs and go on a jog. Really nice scenery and a pond to fish

Great place to fish, run, walk through trails. Love coming here!

I had no idea this was here! We discovered it from a flyer at Mercer Arboretum and decided to check out their storytime by the lake. Ashley did a great job organizing the day, with themed activities to go along with the story. She even brought a live turtle for the kids to touch, as well as an empty turtle shell, some stuffed turtles and play-doh to craft their own turtles.After storytime, my boys and I went on a small adventure to explore the lake and surrounding area. It looked like rescue boats were doing maneuvers so the lake was a little crowded (I felt bad for the people trying to fish) but it was a BEAUTIFUL preserve.The bathrooms are much better than I expected, with several stalls, excellent lighting, and plenty of paper towels and toilet paper. They even have showers on site in case you get filthy playing around the lake.

I absolutely love this place!!!You can ride your bikes, take a walk, and see so many doggies!! You can go across the bridge, see the river, and even get closer to it if you want. All the people are very friendly and there is always somebody going around, making sure everything is in order, while also refilling the water constantly around the park. If you need to use the restroom there is one at the main parking lot and if you are too far from that, my secret is when you get in between the roads and the pond go under the roads which will lead you safely across the road to a hotel where you can just walk in and use the restroom. To be honest the only thing I dont like is that they close on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Years because I cant go! I absolutely love this place and recommend it to anyone who is thinking about going.

Gloomy day at Kikerillo. Beautiful park and great paved walking trails.

Great place to get a quick paddle in on the weekend!

Beautiful property with great facilities and trails for walking and jogging.

The park is hidden right in the highway 249/Louetta area. Picnic tables, volleyball area, walking trails, lake, and fishing pies available. A nice getaway for an individual or family trying to enjoy the outdoors without having to travel too far from home.

I love the scenery and the walking trail is 1.7 miles. Theres a lake you can drop your pole in if you wanna fish.

Serene. Beautiful. Quiet.

So glad for this park. Excellent addition to our community. Running, cycling and kayaking is finally here without having to travel to Woodlands or Spring. Yay!!!

Nice park to get outside and walk and/or exercise.

Very nice walking trails. Beautiful.

This is a beautiful little park tucked away just off the Hwy and almost walking distance to the Vintage shopping and dining experience. There is a beautiful pond that winds and twists throughout the park and is great for fishing and kayak/canoeing. There are both paved and natural hiking paths and plenty of parking all along the road in the park.

Beautiful park. Lovely views.Take your kids, the cat the dog...take your gradma!!

Beautiful scenery, great trails to walk, small lake for fishing or kayaking, clean restrooms. Its my favorite park in the city.

A natural gem in Houston. Has more of a a state park feel than an urban park. No playground or ball fields/ courts. Not many picnic tables and hardly any bbq sites. Once again not really set up as an urban park. Paved walking jogging trail goes around lake and unpaved sections in smaller sections too. Enclosed restrooms and additiona showers for the scout camping facilities. The paved trails have tons or park benches for stopping to rest or just sit. The lake doesnt seem to be any deeper than 4 or 5 feet at the deepest. Many sections are well under 3 feet. A kayak launch is the highlight. There are fishing piers and tons of bank access for fishing. The lake does not have a natural fresh water supply so it is dependent on rain for keeping the water levels up and the water from becoming to stagnant. During periods of low rainfall the lake will drop and larger sections become too shallow for kayaks. Most out there on kayaks, are there to fish but plenty of recreational paddlers come to paddle about the large lake. The anglers are more than plentiful. If youre there to get some paddling time in, you do have to dodge their lines and they can also overtake the launch site. Pretty much every time Im there there are anglers fishing from the launch since its convenient and uncrowded. The launch is mostly gravel but the very end is sharp edged chunky concrete debris fill, so shoes are required when launching especially when the lake levels are low.

Really beautiful park. Great for a stroll or for exercise. Seen a lot of people fishing here as well.

Very clean park, which is taken care of. There are water stations along the trails that get often refilled by park rangers.The cleanliness of the bathrooms surprised me a lot! There s soap, toilet paper, running water!I noticed that there showers too but they were locked.Park offers group activities for kids and community.Besides the trails, where you can ride a bike, run or walk, there lovely rest areas along the way over the water, there are swings, there is massive camp fire and covered and uncovered picnic area ( all these are located next to the main parking lot)Park is pet friendly but pets are advised to be kept on the leash.Vegetation is dense and thru out the ear u can find seasonal bloomings too.

Beautiful lakes! I just discovered this park but I really want to walk the trails!

Its just big enough to get out and go for a short walk its got a couple small bodies of water and a decent amount of wildlife between the birds and the turtles and the fish.

Very loud from the highway nearby, not relaxing at all. The pavement surface is nice. No playground for kids. Everything is beautiful to the eye though.

Nice experience, definitely has some good views and trail is perfect distance

Very well kept, restrooms are clean, family friendly place

It was the first of December 2020 and it was the first morning frost of the season. I snapped this much later, around 4 pm. He said “ordinarily I would have jumped in the water by now but screw dat! I’d rather just take my chances and hope you don’t step on me.”

Really nice park! Great walking/bicycle trail! Picnic tables and benches around the water. Enjoyed a nice picnic before the walk. Looking forward to the next trip!

Love the walk, never crowded and peaceful. The distance is great as well.

Beautiful park, perfect to bring the kids fishing. We enjoyed the walk around the lake.

I luv this park. I go to this park almost everyday for running.

Such a peaceful and tranquil park in a busy area. There is a 1.7 mile track that surrounds the rain fed lake. The trees, wildlife and water make this one of my favorite places to escape. There is a playground and multiple docks where you can fish. Also canoes and kayaks are allowed. There are also a few pokestops and geocache sites!

Beautiful place to spend time outdoors.Nice lake and trails.

Such a beautiful place to enjoy nature and breath some fresh air!

Such a nice place to run, canoe, fish and enjoy the outdoor space. A lot of people come to fish and walk their dogs but its never to the point that it feels over crowded. They have restrooms at the beginning of the trail and there are water stations throughout the trail plus two entrances (Cypresswood and Chasewood). A single lap is a little over 2 miles but its such a nice view throughout you dont even feel it.

Great place to walk and do activities with kids. 1.7 Mile paved track for walking, biking, roller blading, scooters etc etcCanoe ramp to canoe around the pond and there is even fishing allowed (with some restrictions)

Beautiful! Great place to walk. Plenty of shade in hot weather!

Beware of the mountain bikers who will run over you and your children on the path.Beware of the speeders coming in and out of the park. 15mph people.Enjoyable park. No playground equipment but they recently added two baby swings and a porch swing. Lots of fisherman. Nice hiking trail. Entrance located on Chasewood at 249. I included a photo of an alligator in Cypress Creek. He is often located just west of the walking bridge where the water is always running. Parks department is aware of him. Please do not feed or bother him.

Nice place to run, bike or kayak. And there are some monster bass in the lake.

Im new to the area and fell in love with this park. Nice sitting areas, clean restrooms, volleyball net, catch and release lake and its quiet, despite the fact its close to a freeway. If you want to go walking/jogging it has a nice scenic trail about 1.7 miles long.

Really beautiful park but on 3 different occasions the bicycle riders go very very fast and have nearly hit me, on another occasion almost hit my grandmother and on another occasion almost hit my mom!! Bicycle riders really need to slow down! People are walking.

Great place to kayak and relax, lots of flowers and wildlife to take pics of!

3 out of 5 stars, wouldnt change a thing.
