Holman D. Rhoton Park

Recreational Facilities

Spanning 4.2 acres in a cozy residential pocket of Carrollton, Holman D. Rhoton Park is a pleasant neighborhood green space in Carrollton. It's nestled among homes, making it an easy escape for nearby residents and families seeking some outdoor time. One thing we really appreciate? The park is well-lit at night, so your evening strolls or pickup games don't have to end when the sun goes down.

Walking Trails

The walking paths meander through the property - they're well-kept and good for days when you want to stretch your legs or clear your head. Mature trees dot the landscape, offering welcome shade during Texas summers and creating a peaceful natural setting.

The quiet atmosphere makes this a nice spot to decompress while enjoying some gentle exercise and scenery.

Playground Area

Kids will love the playground with its modern equipment that caters to different age groups. It's especially ideal for the little ones - toddlers and preschoolers ages 1 to 5 will find plenty to keep them entertained. The play areas are consistently clean and well-maintained, giving parents one less thing to worry about.

Sports Facilities

For those interested in sports activities, The park features tennis courts, basketball courts (with a unique matting surface over concrete that's easier on the knees), and pickleball courts to satisfy various sporting interests.

Night owls will appreciate that these facilities are lighted, so you can keep playing even after sunset. There's also a fenced soccer court with built-in goals - no need to bring your own equipment.

Pickleball enthusiasts should note that the area includes two courts with a bench outside the enclosure. While players often gather here for friendly matches, seating is limited, so you might want to bring a portable chair if you plan to stay awhile.

Amenities

You'll find a water filling station in the park - though if you're heading for a pickleball match, consider bringing your own water bottle since the fountains aren't particularly close to those courts. Book lovers will appreciate the free little library where you can leave a book and take a book.

Note that there are no public restrooms here, so plan your visit accordingly.

Picnic Areas

Gathering with friends or family? The large pavilion equipped with picnic tables and grills makes for a wonderful spot to enjoy an outdoor meal or host a small get-together.

Community Value

Holman D. Rhoton Park offers both active recreation and peaceful relaxation for visitors. While generally well-maintained, you might occasionally notice areas that need a little TLC - but that's part of any well-loved community space.
