About the Business
Jake's Place Park is a beloved tourist attraction located at 100 Naylor Road in Oak Point, Texas, United States.

Reviews
"Really nice play ground. Good equipment with 2. Different play structures to accommodate different ages."
"We've taken kids there for several years. There is good playground equipment including the usual slides and swings. The only negative is that it could use a good cleaning more often and more soft fill needs to be added under the swings and slides. The pavilion next to the playground is a good place for parties and gatherings."
"This is our favorite local park. Sometimes we wonder why there isn’t more people at the park when we’re there, but also not complaining. This park is super shaded. Multiple playgrounds for our daughter to play on. Momma takes a walk around the track with the stroller while the daughter and I play. Great big, covered pavilion, with bird control so there’s no poop on the tables. The park and the police station share a parking lot, so you really can’t feel any safer than this park. Country setting, with neighboring farm animals. Highly recommend this park."
"One of the best parks in the area. Ample shade provided by trees, pavillion, and covering for playground equipment, which is much better designed than most, allowing kids free reign to explore and play with minimal chance of injury. Large fields in the back for older kids to play ball. Very safe since it shares a parking lot with the Oak Point Department of Public Safety."
"Excellent place to take the family for a day outside! With the new addition of a paved sidewalk all the way around the park, mom can walk/jog while kids play. Win win! The park has different areas for varying levels of kids, big shade trees for hot days, a big pavilion with plenty of seating, wide open fields for sports, a bathroom right next door, and the friendliest horses that enjoy visitors. We have spent many hours here and I know many more hours will be spent in the future!! This is also a marked location for a safe internet purchase exchange with cameras! Keep in mind for the future."
