Oxford Park

A Green Oasis in the Neighborhood

Tucked away in Dearborn's residential landscape, Oxford Park offers that perfect little escape when you need some fresh air without venturing too far from home. This well-kept community space has become something of a neighborhood living room where locals gather, kids play, and everyone can simply breathe a little easier.

With its generous green spaces and welcoming vibe, it's the kind of place where you can spread out a blanket, crack open a book, or just watch the clouds drift by overhead.

Something for Everyone

If you're eight or eighty, Oxford Park offers activities for all ages. The ADA-accessible playground is a particular highlight, featuring swings and play structures designed so children of all abilities can join in the fun. It's heartwarming to see the inclusive design in action as kids of different ages and abilities play together.

Got a competitive streak? The park's two half-sized basketball courts regularly host impromptu games among neighbors. You'll often find a mix of skill levels here, from teenagers showing off their moves to adults reliving their glory days.

Baseball enthusiasts haven't been forgotten either. The grassy baseball diamond complete with two baseball nets provides a fantastic setting for casual games or some batting practice. And when Michigan's winter works its magic, the park sometimes transforms part of its grounds into an ice rink - a seasonal treat for skaters.

Take a Break

When you need to refuel or just sit and chat, head over to the picnic area where tables and benches await. It's an ideal spot to unpack a lunch, celebrate a birthday, or simply enjoy a coffee while watching the world go by.

For those looking to get their steps in, a cement walking path meanders through the grounds, offering a smooth surface for walking, jogging, or pushing strollers. The path gives you a nice tour of the park while keeping you off the grass if that's your preference.

Dog parents will be pleased to know that Oxford Park is dog-friendly, with plenty of open space for your four-legged friends to explore (while leashed, of course). The park has become something of a casual meeting spot for local pet owners.

Note that there are no public restrooms available, which is worth keeping in mind if you're planning to spend several hours here, especially with little ones in tow.
