Roanoke Park

A Neighborhood Retreat

Situated in western Omaha, Roanoke Park has been representing the community's backyard since the 1960s and 70s. This green space provides a nice break from city life without having to leave Omaha.

Managed by Omaha's Parks and Recreation Department, this public space has become a popular gathering spot for the community.

What You'll Find Here

Roanoke Park strikes that perfect balance between wide-open spaces and dedicated recreational areas. The sprawling green lawns are well-suited for impromptu frisbee games or laid-back Sunday picnics, while more structured facilities are available for specific activities.

Mature trees cast welcoming shadows across the grounds - a blessing during those scorching Nebraska summer days. Meandering paths invite you to take a leisurely stroll, well-suited for walking off stress or catching up with a friend.

Cool Off in the Pool

When summer temperatures climb, the Roanoke Swimming Pool is a popular spot to cool down. Open during the warmer months, this city-managed facility offers a refreshing dip for swimmers of all ages.

Safety is a priority here, with proper supervision during all operating hours, so you can relax while the kids splash around.

Get Your Game On

Sports enthusiasts will feel right at home with several well-kept facilities. The tennis courts remain in excellent condition, but it's worth noting you might need to park a short walk away due to limited parking directly adjacent to the courts.

The newer pickleball courts have quickly become a community favorite, drawing players of all skill levels. Baseball fans can enjoy the baseball diamond, which regularly hosts little league practices and games, filling the park with the familiar sounds of America's pastime.

Families with young explorers will appreciate the playground area where kids can climb, swing, and slide to their hearts' content. It's a natural spot for little ones to burn energy and make new friends in a safe outdoor setting.

Community Space

Roanoke Park functions as more than just a recreational space. It's a place where neighbors gather for both casual meetups and organized community events, helping to foster connections throughout the neighborhood.
