Great place to walk with children. Quiet,pretty, long trails. Bring bug spray.
Very nice and quiet like i like.. All you hear is birds chirping and squirrels climbing the trees. Beautiful creek and beautiful little ponds and lots of areas to sit and relax and meditate if you wish. I saw birds, an owl that flew right pass me and my children, and a rabbit as we were leaving. Im sure there are much more animals but we didnt stay too long.
Its a beautiful park but the parking is terrible. Because the park is located in a neighborhood and all the visitors park along the side. The two way street effectively becomes a one way street. Youre likely to have a hard time getting out. Be prepared if you decide to go.
Nice little nature park with a lot of walking trails. Calm and quiet. For parking, set the location to Houston Audubon Society if you are visiting here. You cant see the entrance very clearly but when you see the wooden board of Houston Audubon Society that is the place where you have to enter.Most of the areas around the park is clean and well-maintained. Average vehicle park may be for 10-12 vehicles. There is a restroom.
Saw some wrens, kinglets, and other small birds. They know where their true sanctuary is. Amazing this was once a 147 acre homestead.
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL scenery!!! So peaceful and relaxing.
A beautiful small little park in the middle of Memorial
Lovely retreat in the middle of the city. Its small but you can breathe a little fresh air and enjoy the wind in the trees
A fantastic hidden gem hidden near Memorial and Beltway 8. I was surprised with the woodsie shade and numerous trails. The design was nice and easy to view the birds in the trees. I was impressed with the lazy creek that flows through the Audubon park. A few mini bridges that cross the creek were well built and nice to look over and take pics of birds or simply hang out and listen to the many bird songs. Thankful its 10min from my house.
Secluded sanctuary... just be prepared for the mosquitos
If you are interested in birds in Houston, one of the best birding cities in the US, Houston Audubon is where you want to start.
It is a great organization that provides great resources and educational options using nature for Houstonians. It is a great place for a hike in the concrete jungle we call Houston. Keep in mind there is limited parking, you should bring a water bottle, and wear bug spray.
Beautiful enclave in the busy city
Great place for a hike. Serene and scenic. Find a spot. Namaste.
Nice trails, great tree canopy.
This is a really great place to take your family for an outdoor experience.
Great spot to see some nature in Houston. Walking trails similar to those on the south side of Memorial Park.
Its a great running trails in the heart of the neighborhood. The only drawback is that the used plastic bags are everywhere near the creek and hanging on the trees.
This is a beautiful sanctuary with a lot of potential. However I have been every day of the week and the majority of the wildlife ive seen has been human. Many many people come here to walk their dogs and hike their screaming children around and stroller-gossip. Very few respect the sanctuary nature of the place. Even the topmost google review has a photo of a child throwing her toy in to the aquatic habitat. Funny note that your pet must be cleared for sanctuary approved behavior but your child does not. Might as well be a bird feeder in a public park.
Me, a stranger walked in a groovy home of birds, squirrels, rabbits, reptiles, fishes and insects, and fortunately they showed no rejection on me.I soften my footsteps for trying not to disturb their fun or rest.Sometime, I pretended I was a tree, remained silent to watch their recreation and relaxation.If you are a nature lover, dont miss this marvelous spot!
A little treasure hiding in a neighborhood. Nice and shady, lots of wildlife, and its free!
A really peaceful place for nature walks.
Enjoyed going there and the nice little walk in the bird sanctuary
I love this place for a nice hour hike
This place is beautiful, i love coming here to do sketching and just relax.
One of my fave place to visit as when you feel down and out gives you peace n joy seeing the wilds in their beauty forms esp rare birds and insects
Nice place for a walk.
Calm
Excellent
