A very clean park with a decently sized walking path. There is a hill where you can exercise or go sledding during the winter. There are trash bins and bags for disposing of your pets excrement.

Wonderful park to walk through. Northbrook did a great job designing the park. Fishing, tennis, soccer, hiking and a hill for sledding. All age groups can find things to do here

Wood Oaks Green Park is easily the best park in Northbrook. First, it offers a large playground for children to play and run around. Second, there are 8 great tennis courts to play on. Third, a lake offers a nice place to relax and go fishing. Fourth, at winter the giant hill gets covered in snow, making it great for sledding. There are three different hights to the hill for different aged riders. Finally, there is a large trail to take walks on. Also, if there is no parking available, you can park at the school on non-school days.

Labor Day in the green space had couples playing tennis, athletes bounding up and down the sled hill, couples holding hands on the shade, and everyone else walking, jogging, or rollerblading on the nicely paved path that makes a ribbon around and through the park.Plenty of parking off Sanders Road, and a warm, family-friendly atmosphere makes the park a jewel in the Northbrook suburb. You do hear a bit of traffic from 294 as cars whizz by, but really thats only if youre on the south end of the hill flanking the highway.I am not a fisherman, but I did see a number of poles going on the retention pond--not sure of their success, but looked fun.One final note, this park is great in the winter, too. Just when youve had it with cabin fever, jump over here to fresh air and snow.

Great park. There are 8 tennis courts with wind screens and a separate court with a wall for practice. The park has a number of paved trails, which are perfect for leisure walks or even biking. There is a good size pond with fish if interested and a small shady picnic area with tables. Best part, the the park is really well taken care of and there rarely are mosquitoes during the hot summer days. Kids can enjoy a nice playground. In the middle, close to the parking are the bathrooms with running water and a small shelter with more picnic tables.

Excellent place to arrange a birthday party, family reunions and other occasions. I arranged a photo suit for my daughters birthday. The green grass (like in older Windows laptop) being maintained well and the scenery of pond is awesome. You can walk, run, crawl, play, cook, and celebrate. There is a football arena, play area which has slides, swings etc. Dont miss this place in summer.

Review №47

Amazing place for taking your kids sledding. There are 3 hills - distance from parking and left stair case increases difficulty with the closest hill to the lot and stairs being easiest and softest. I recommend going after 6 because it is not as croweded with clueless parents and clueless kids.
