They have mini golfing where you can rent equipment inside the facility. They have a great playground area and outdoor fitness equipment. Inside the facility, they have a free pool and gym area.

For first timers, you will have to fill out a form and don't forget to bring a large sized towel for workouts! There's a really great large dog park next door but there's no entrance to the dog park from Mary Jo Peckham. You would have to park at the Katy Library to enter the dog park.

I've been coming here since I was in 8th grade. I'm very disappointed with what they have done…read morerecently with their prices and rules. They are too overpriced for sure. It used to be $15 now it's 20$ and you have to sign a waiver and a fee?! Before you know it they're will be a pay to park For some reason they have lifeguards now. Like what is our money going towards? I get yall need money to make a living but this is outrageous. Also y'all's website and Facebook need to be changed!

We have been testing new parks around town and stumbled across this one off of two big roads,…read morenestled behind a high school and in-between different neighborhoods. It is ungated and large, but right on a busy intersection, which is scarier with smaller kids playing everywhere. There are two seating areas, a large one with lots of tables and a smaller one with one table underneath the awnings. There are restroom facilities on location but I did not check to see if they were unlocked (as other reviewer said). There was a small putt-putt area with a flat grassland with lots of holes for playing, but no balls or clubs around. Three large areas of play were set up, each with their own playscapes and smaller amenities. Lots of twirly things for kids to sit, stand, or ride on. Lots of open spaces to run around or fly a kite, maybe?, And sidewalks for kids to ride bikes or scooters. The areas are sort of divided into age groups for recommendations on who should play where to help parents and kids control some of the chaos otherwise. It sort of works but there is still a good smattering of kids of all ages all over. There were only traditional swings with infant seats. They had the giant rope swing thing for older kids, but no regular swings. The parking lot was easy to access and had ample spaces available. They was a lot of people coming and going during spring break. We were here for almost two hours and it didn't get nearly 1/3 as crowded as Exploration Park and was just as fun! The ice cream man with the power ranger sidekick made it to this park, too, and made a killing in sales. Lol. I would recommend this park, but be careful about kids running around because they could wander into the street. The open grassy areas would be great for playing soccer or catch if there was a gate or something to stop kids from bolting after rolling toys, which is the only reason I took one star off of this otherwise beautiful, spacious and fun park.

See the resemblance? https://i.pinimg.com/originals/cb/b9/55/cbb9550a1e87e483746a31cce0254816.jpg Now as for this park. This is a pretty standard and spacious and enjoyable park, which provides a nice refuge from the old downtown area of Katy, from the Suburban hell and endless monotony of the rest of the sprawling suburb. It's just too hot here for a lot of the year, and the nice spring and fall seasons are short as they are, but during those, it can be pretty nice around here. Parks are always a good thing and this one is relatively unspoiled. Anyway, even if Katy came first, Barbie came most, I saw to that.

More than average quantities of ommats at the bottom of the slides here too, which is useful when you have a one year old who wants to do the big kid slides but can't always land on his feet. The trails leave much to be desired, probably the most underwhelming 'trails' I have been on. The place has a claustrophobic feel. Long and narrow, surrounded by a busy street on one side and a neighborhood on the other, fences either side of path as it narrows to a turnaround point. More like the trail a toddler could begin on. Feels like I'm in someone's backyard really. Not scenic at all if don't you get my drift by now. And I guess I've come to realize after visiting many trails in parks that the environmental beauty largely correlates to our enjoyment. So if I come here, it's for the playground equip mainly.

I liked how clean and well kept this park is. I didn't see a single dog poop anyway. There's a playground area and a couple of picnic tables right by the parking lot/entrance area.
