Nice park. Tranquil. A hidden gem as far as Parks go. About 20 acres of Park & trails. Love feeding the fish & turtles. My 13 yr old nephew calls it Turtle Park... Im sure many others do as well. Enjoy.
Beautiful gem nestled in the city. Great for walking/riding/picnics. Dont feed bread to all the wonderful turtles you can find at the over-look on the pond. Give them turtle food/meal worms you can find in any pet section. The turtles will love you. Red-eared sliders are abundant and, you may spy an alligator if you watch closely. Beautiful flowers and greenery are in abundance. Quiet and well-kept; youll love it!
Lovely place to come walk. There are several trails, my favorite is walking through the mini swamps and the wooded areas. Its very shaded (unless you go through the butterfly area / wild flowers), so its very doable for Texas weather. I also noticed I didnt get bitten by mosquitos so that is a huge plus. Everything is paved which is what I love so its not too wild. There are lots of nature and a swamp, so I would watch little people closely so they dont fall.The only downside is as other say. There is no public restroom.
Beautiful little park! All the trails are paved. They have a great little butterfly garden and a gorgeous pond with a bunch of cypress trees. There is also a really pretty pergola that would be great for pictures!
A small hidden gem found in houston finally. A lot of bugs but I wasnt bothered by them. My son really loved walking thru there and looking for turtles. Definitely recommend getting turtle food as the turtles will swim up to you and are pretty much begging for the food.
Amazing place to walk around. The bald cypresses are truly a sight to see.Saw more turtles than birds this trip. Although I did see a single blue heron when I arrived right before dawn.The only drawback is that people let their dogs run free as they are walking the pathways. They treat the area as an open dog park.
It is a very small park so if you are hoping to walk or run multiple miles you may want to find a different spot but the park is pretty and there is a nice spacious open area at the beginning of the park which is great for doing yoga, a picnic, body weight exercises, and so on.
Beautiful walking trail with a big lake, tall trees, and turtles popping their head up. I enjoyed the scenery with the beautiful flower garden, but I did see some trash like (water bottles, coke cans) on floor and I don’t know why when there’s clearly trash cans all around the park. People pick up your trash!!!!! Other than that, nice park with sitting area.
Nice park, very shady and cool on a hot day.
One of The pond is covered for little leaves turning the watter in a magic green color. Beside tgere are another pond with crystal water. The park has the most luxury materials bridges in the houston area.
Wonderful walking trails. Very naturesque and well maintained. So beautiful I didnt want to leave without doing multiple laps.Highly recommend.Its not huge but it is very satisfying.
I love the scenery, the flowers are beautiful and the trees are majestic,andPeaceful.so get you walk on
Very beautiful place to walk. I love this place. Beautiful scenes of the nature.
Its a very beautiful place. The walking trails are kept up with & the scenery is gorgeous.
Just beautiful. This park has paved walking paths...so no pebbles in your shoes! It also has bridges, swamps filled with wild life, a flower meadow, and a small butterfly garden!
Great place for a walk human or dog long and great trails with a big lake in the middle of it all
Small, but fine park with beautiful walk, great scenery and interesting wildlife.
Many irresponsible dog owners go to this park. Please be aware. Also there are NO public restrooms.
Quiet...i relax there with my son, dog and a walk to listen to the wind and the trees
Great park! Good walking trails couple of ponds. My daughter loves to go there. Be careful of wildlife though. Lots of cottonmouths hanging out in trees. Keep eye out for them and just know theyre there and you can still enjoy park.
So incredibly beautiful!
My litle son love this place,
My partner and I are so happy that this is part of the neighborhood. We try to come here as often as we can to get use of it. The improvements they have made are looking so nice. We are super excited to see whats in store for it.
Not a bad little walking park. It has quite the diverse eco system for such a small place.
This is such a gem! Beautiful trails with enough shade and beautiful picturesque scenic views of nature.
Concrete trails, lot of vegetation. Nice for walking.
Súper dope park to run, walk, take pictures
Cute, and I was able to jog.
It’s a great place to get out and walk as a family. :)
Very tranquil and visually satisfyingly place to go and relax!
Great park to work out! The scenary is beautiful!
A great park for walking with kids or dogs or alone, we really enjoy it!
Visited this park for the first time it was so pretty and relaxing I had a great stroll with my granddaughters. You can enjoy the green foliage and breezes
Beautiful little park with two ponds. It does not have public restrooms and no park but it is a nice place to picnic and sit and relax with all the benches and picnic tables.
Great place to relax.
Beautiful place with wildlife.
Very nice walking paths. Beautiful flower gardens
I have started my workout routine here! It’s beautiful, well kept.
I love this park.
Nice and great for pics
Lovely park, well kept. Please follow leash laws and everyone enjoy!
Nice park with a great walking trail and lots of trees.
Pretty, great scenery but a little too small
It’s quiet. At the large pond, there’s an old cypress tree and lots of turtles and fish which swim up to you for food. Lots of mosquitos too, so bring bug spray or come in the middle of the day.
Very clean, plenty resting g points
Love this park and its wild flower garden!!
My favorite park in the area. Very nice for walking even during hot summer days, because theres a lot of trees for shade. Will miss this park so much when I move! :(
Really peaceful quiet park
Love walking the trails with my dog. Peaceful and quiet.
They keep improving with more walking paths and it along the creek
One of the most bueatiful places. Been to in a long time definitely would love go bk and enjoy another wonderful walk viewing and watching nature at its best so many things to see so many things to do enjoyed every minute of it especially with a friend that was meant to b there with me to enjoy such a sight and still didnt get to see all
Peaceful and relaxing place for a stroll. Come on and enjoy the walk hand in hand with your significant other....
Nice park. Quiet, pavilion, walking paths, and pond.
Great place to meet, greet, and walk dogs.
Its close by what more can I say and its connected to a school property.
Nice walking park
Great place for a walk and to meet your neighbors
Very narrow small parking, this is the only one minus
Its a nice walk great ceanery, clean, nice trails, on a hot day though... None of that matters lol, and definitely do go during mosquitoe season.. But park itself great
I love this trail. Ive lives in the neighborhood for 20 years. This trail is my moment of tranquility and reflection. Im so thankful it was built. A very much needed and addition to Ponderosa.
Beautiful, peaceful walking park. Gem of a place.
Beautiful nature park, plenty of walking trails and ponds filled with turtles!
Such a nice accessible place. No bathrooms though, so go before. Peaceful place to relax and take a walk. My dog jumped in the creek which freaked me out, but I saw tennis balls in there, so Im assuming peoples dogs play fetch in there. He swam around and loved it. I just wish it was bigger and had bathrooms :)
O love walking in Ponderosa park, its peaceful and beautiful. Theres also a great butterfly area. If you like nature you will love this park! Great picturesque areas also!
Beautiful little park.
This is a great place to get your walking exercise.
Nice to go running I love this park
This duch a nice walk park. The butterfly garden is beautiful.
Excellent trails of varying lengths to accommodate all levels of stamina.
Peaceful walking park with concrete paths. Large grassy area for picnics and family activities. Do note there are no restrooms.
Great relaxing walking park !
The natural is wonderful, they take care of trees and the trail for jogging o walking are safe and the view is really relax.
Little bit spooky
I love riding my bike early before the walkers are there. Fun to feed the turtles too!
Very peaceful and quiet with secluded and wild concrete walking paths. The swamp overlook from the raised deck is like a step back to primeval times. No play equipment for children but two fishing ponds and a large grassy play area.
Well maintained paths for walking, dog walking, jogging and biking through beautiful wooded and swamp areas. Some plant species are identified throughout park. Also an area for kids to play ball with easy access from nice neighborhoods.
The park looks nicer since they recently planted some new trees to replace the ones that died in the flooding caused by Harvey. It would be better if there was a water fountain there though and I wish the large loop trail was a bit longer.
Good to exercise
If youre a Nature lover this is THE PLACE to go to! Plus it has beautiful plant life & clean sceneries all around!
A peaceful nature walk!
Very beautiful and peaceful

Beautiful, quiet park!
Super peaceful.
My car got broken into...they busted my window and took my backpack...same person is there everyday...I would like to know who to contact to see if there is footage of the crime on the camera they have posted by the trash can...
Great place for a walk or a picnic by a pond and cypress swamp. Torn up pretty badly by Harvey, but still pleasant to walk in.
Walking my dog 2 days ago I saw a rattlesnake. Furthest track on top of the circle cement that has brick on the bottom.
Love this
