Hollybrook Park

A Glimpse into the Past

The city acquired this green retreat from developers back in 1922, when it sprawled across 21 acres. Today, Hollybrook Park stretches through Jacksonville's northeast Lackawanna area on the west side.

This peaceful stretch of land naturally separates the Lackawanna and North Riverside neighborhoods, representing a green buffer between communities.

Nature's Corridor

What makes Hollybrook unique is how it meanders north to south, following the natural paths of Westbrook Creek and McCoys Creek. The waterways create a serene backdrop for your visit, offering tranquil creek-side views that make you forget you're still in the city.

If you're looking for a quiet escape, you'll appreciate the park's calm atmosphere. Keep your eyes peeled for local wildlife that calls this urban oasis home.

What You'll Find

Got kids? The children's playground provides an ideal spot for little ones to burn off energy while you take a breather. Sports enthusiasts can make use of the baseball fields and basketball courts for friendly competition or solo practice.

The open grassy areas scattered within the park make ideal spots for spreading out a blanket, enjoying a simple picnic, or just lounging with a good book.

Current Landscape

Hollybrook has been getting some TLC lately with maintenance and safety improvements. You might encounter some construction work during your visit - just part of the ongoing efforts to make the park even better for everyone.
