Confirmed from Angleton Bates Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Park with a basketball court and softball fields.
What runners say about Angleton Bates Park
“Park was well maintained and bathrooms were exceptionally clean”
“Some beautiful trees provide a good amount of shade for the 1/8 mile walking path.”
Cute park with a few ball fields, a pavillion, soccer field, and a disc golf course. Some beautiful trees provide a good amount of shade for the 1/8 mile walking path. The restrooms were clean. Best outdoor basketball courts I’ve seen anywhere, but a bit dirty.
Great Park,i remember going thru the bike trails in the woods across from park as a kid. Haunted woods was always a blast too during october back in the early 80's .Don't no if they still have the 4th of July fireworks there anymore or not .i had many memorable times at that park as a kid.
Pretty large area to play in. Couple of decent size play grounds. Volleyball and basketball. A little walking trail. There is a checkerboard/chessboard built in to a table just need to bring your pieces. Plenty of restrooms. Plenty of different birds to watch also.
