Kenwood Park

Park Overview

Located on Dora Street in San Antonio, Kenwood Park spreads across 6.2 acres of green space, offering a welcome breath of fresh air for locals and visitors alike. The park has unique hours: Monday through Wednesday you can visit from 7AM to 7PM, Thursday and Friday it's closed, Saturday it's open from 6AM to 11PM, and Sunday from 7AM to 7PM.

Recreational Facilities

For those looking to get active, Kenwood offers several options. The baseball field is the neighborhood "sandlot" where future all-stars practice their swings and catches. Basketball enthusiasts will appreciate the two courts, including one that's recently been spruced up with a new surface and equipment.

The basketball hoops sit slightly below regulation height (10 feet) and you won't find any three-point lines here - giving these courts that perfect casual, pickup-game vibe. Need more space? The park's large open field offers plenty of room for everything from frisbee to football or just lounging on a blanket.

Children's Area

The little ones haven't been forgotten at Kenwood. Two playground units designed specifically with small children in mind provide a safe space for kids to climb, slide, and make new friends.

The park's picnic tables and grills provide space for anything from a simple sandwich to a barbecue with family and friends.

Amenities and Features

For those seeking a more laid-back experience, take a stroll along the walking trail that winds through the park - fantastic for a morning constitutional or an evening walk to clear your head.

Scattered within the park, you'll come across benches and bleachers where you can rest your feet, read a book, or cheer on the local talent during baseball games.

Community Resources

At the heart of Kenwood sits a community center with helpful staff. Located near residential areas, it's frequently used by locals.

Note that while restrooms are listed among the park's amenities, availability can be hit or miss according to some visitors. You might want to plan accordingly if you're thinking about spending several hours enjoying all that Kenwood has to offer.
