We absolutely love Mary Jo Peckham Park. It's one of my favorite parks in the whole Houston area! I'm hesitant to even review it because it's such a hidden gem in Katy proper. It's a Harris County park we've been enjoying for many years. Some of the park's wonderful highlights are a very large, catch and release lake with a fishing pier, a koi fish pond, a walking trail, wonderful children's play area, a magnificent, large, covered, picnic area, tables and grills throughout, and one of our favorites- two miniature golf courses. Putters and balls can be checked out from the rec center when it's open, but eventually we decided to buy our own so we can enjoy a little putt-putt golf whenever we would like, not just when the center is open. In addition, the center does have a pool and workout room, plus different classes for the community, but this may be reserved for Harris County residents. We have hosted and attended picnic events large and small for family and friend events, but we enjoy going just ourselves, too. There are LOTS of ducks there, and seasonally it is common to see broods of ducklings, too, if you like that kind of thing. I love it! We and many others used to feed the ducks, but I think the park discourages that now. Still, some people do, and the ducks do not shy away from free handouts. They may bombard you if they think free food is involved so beware! This park is a definite go-to if you are ever in the Katy area and want to enjoy the outdoors. It's surrounded by several other smaller parks, but don't let that fool you. Keep going down the drive past the gates to get to this hidden treasure! Don't worry. My pictures hardly do it justice!

No Ducks! How can this country club of ducks be so xeno-segregist. Do the native ducks have a series of standard or bar for new comer ducks to seek entry? Why are dogs given a separate park while us bi-peds are allowed to share with ducks of upper class? Is it actually a mid-level dog park that has a "ducks, fish and bi-peds" reserve to appease the activist? We all know Dogs are at the top of the hierarchy, I just never thought that Ducks would have such a place that they are even specified over the highest order of avian class, The Emperor Penguin! The world we live in! I'm just glad I'm human and allowed to attend this establishment without too many restrictions and even supplied with the basic and adequate amenities. Will be back as soon as my Master Fluffy the Pomeranian demands of it.

Very nice and clean park. They just recently updated the kids playground. WiFi is available for the public. You can jog around the park with your dogs. A mini golf course is also available for free. You can borrow golf clubs and balls from the facility at the entrance for free. In front of that is a koi pond for your viewing pleasure. There are two nicely covered seating areas as well. There is a large covered seating area with lots of tables and benches. A working water faucet and BBQ grill are provided. There is a nicer more secluded wooden covered seating area right before the koi pond. Restrooms are available. You can fish there for fun as well, as they restock the water with fish. Ducks and squirrels aplenty for the animal lovers.

This one of our favorite parks to enjoy a great family time, with awesome play park games in prime condition, a mini golf, and the very beautiful lake to have some fishing time or just have a little walk, or be surrounded by nature giving some food to ducks and squirrels. It is very clean and all installations are outstandingly well cared. They have a gym and a pool and you can borrow golf club at the front desk or just buy a soda there, its restrooms are also in great condition and the parking lot is very nice and comfortable. An excellent place to have beautiful memories for the years to come, I recommend this Park a 💯%
