About Crescent Park

Natural Features

Two inviting ponds sit at the heart of Crescent Park, creating little ecosystems where fish swim beneath the surface while ducks and geese glide above. If you're into birdwatching, you're in for a treat - especially during migration seasons when feathered travelers make this park their temporary home.

There's something genuinely calming about watching waterfowl go about their day as you take in the peaceful atmosphere these water features create. The ponds aren't just pretty to look at; they're living, breathing habitats that change with the seasons.

Recreation Opportunities

Wrapping around the ponds is a 0.474-mile jogging and bicycle path - well-suited for when you need to clear your head or get your steps in. The trail is nicely level, making it accessible whether you're walking, jogging, or cycling. Need a breather? You'll find benches scattered along the path where you can pause and take in the scenery.

Between the two ponds sits a charming gazebo complete with picnic tables. It's a nice spot to enjoy lunch outdoors or gather with friends while overlooking the water. Ducks and geese often swim by as you eat, adding to the peaceful atmosphere.

Community Value

Crescent Park offers a little piece of nature tucked into suburban Tulsa. It's dog-friendly, but remember to bring your own cleanup bags if you're bringing your four-legged friend. The park occasionally hosts neighborhood events like the Fourth of July parade.

Homes surround this peaceful retreat, contributing to its quiet atmosphere. You can find street parking along the perimeter when you visit. Note that there aren't any restroom facilities or playground equipment here - it's really all about the natural experience.

Park Maintenance

The City of Tulsa Parks Department keeps Crescent Park looking its best all year long. Maintaining those natural water features and surrounding landscape takes dedication - their work helps maintain this natural space year-round.
