Stay Safe
The following tips are provided to help you enjoy The Woodlands parks. Please abide by these guidelines and the park rules to respect and protect every resident's right to enjoy the amenities.
Parking
Many of our parks are designed for neighborhood use, where residents are encouraged to walk or bike to the parks by way of neighborhood pathways. These parks generally do not allot spaces for vehicle parking. If you drive to a park, please choose one with ample parking space.
Do not park on the grass at neighborhood parks. Parking on the grassy areas may kill the grass and is a potential fire hazard. If no spaces are available to park your vehicle, we encourage you to use another park where parking spaces are readily available. There are more than 100 parks to choose from!
