Oakwood Park

Nice quiet neighborhood park nestled between two neighborhoods. It now has a paved walking path that was recently added. There isn’t any parking, you have to park on the neighborhood streets at either entrances but overall it’s great. Glad to have neighborhood parks like this around in Fairfield. It’s not well known but nice and well maintained. Also great for throwing an aerobie frisbee at!

I love walking through this park with the new paved path! This park has great amenities: basketball courts; a tennis court; volleyball net; playground; and a sand baseball diamond (Parks & Rec, you might want to deal with the weeds that have overtaken the sand). The woods are fun to explore, but beware of poisonous plants, snakes, and coyotes (I haven't seen any, but I did see the remains of a domestic dog that I think went missing a while ago). There are also deer in the woods occasionally, and possibly hunters too. There are three geocaches in the woods as well.

This is a small, hidden park with a path that reaches behind some houses in the back of two subdivisions. Not a destination worth driving to because it doesn't have all the things the bigger parks have, but it's good for a walk and for kids to play if you happen to live in walking distance.
