Oakwood Park

Play & Picnic Spaces

Found in East Central Durham, North Carolina, Oakwood Park is a cozy 1.2-acre green retreat along Holloway Street. This pocket-sized neighborhood haven offers a welcome breath of fresh air for locals looking to enjoy some outdoor time.

At the heart of the park sits a playground designed for children ages 2-12 where little ones can climb, slide, and make new friends. The equipment is kept in good shape and offers enough variety to keep the kiddos entertained.

Take a Break

Need a spot for lunch or just want to sit and watch the world go by? You'll come across picnic tables dotted around the grounds - well-suited for everything from impromptu snacks to family gatherings.

Just a heads-up: there are no public restrooms here, which might be something to consider if you're planning an extended visit with little ones.

During summer months, you might want to toss some bug spray in your bag, as mosquitoes can make unwelcome appearances.

When to Visit

The park welcomes visitors daily from 6AM to 10PM, giving you plenty of time to enjoy this little green area whether you're an early bird or prefer evening strolls.
