Russell Creek Park

The park itself is quite huge. Lots of speed bumps to get to where you want to go though.Playground differentiates itself as it has some stuff you really can't find typically elsewhere in Plano playgrounds. Give it a visit for sure.

I found this park while visiting my parents. It is a really nice park for the kids to play with covered play. They are getting a 3 because of the bathroom. My sister took my niece to use the bathroom and what she found was beyond disgusting. She found poop on the floor and all over the wall with no way to contact anyone to address the issue. For a city park I would expect them to have employees roaming at least every hour in county vehicles but it seems this is only done in Harris County.All in all the playground was great for the kids but do not use the restroom.

Phenomenal park and the fact it's covered is even more reasons I love this park! There are so many things for my daughter to do! The lake is beautiful. It has ducks, turtles, and fish. There are gorgeous trails to walk on and places to sit, and a volleyball court. I love coming to this park and would recommend this place for anyone who has kids.

This is the BEST park in the area! Russell Creek has it all- it's HUGE with sports fields but more importantly has a beautiful fishing pond with a small pier, large pavilion (first come first served during the pandemic- no reservations), hike/bike path, picnic tables, restrooms, volleyball, basketball, playground and benches. The park is beautiful and easy to visit with kids. I've seen many friends and family having socially distanced parties and get togethers. I love visiting Russell Creek park because of the positive energy. Everyone is happy here. We all need that now.

Park getting better and better. Posted new photos of playground, volleyball sand court and basketball court in southwest corner. Access road from McDermott is being completely rebuilt.

Stopped by this park because it was close to where I was and the kids needed to play. The drive in to the playground goes through a large parking lot for sports fields with many speed bumps. No big deal, safety first. But the playground has rocks, small rocks that ever kid was picking up, throwing, putting on the playground equipment and my 1 year old kept putting in his mouth. Honestly, the park itself is probably nice with the sports fields and walking trail but if you are just looking for a playground for small kids, skip this one.

Perfect place to enjoy the outdoors! I love coming out to Russell Creek and walking around the pond on a nice day. There is a playground with swings for kids (and adventurous adults) as well as a sand volleyball court and basketball court. There are some bathrooms but bring your own toilet paper and hand sanitizer! The outdoor pavilion is available for rent with some built in BBQ grills. You have to bring your own charcoal and fire starting materials. Most evenings, you can find adults and children walking around the pond on their phones playing Pokémon Go since there's quite a few Pokestops and gyms in the area. Parking can be limited so try parking at Skaggs Elementary or the soccer fields and walk over to the park.

Nice park. Needs more shade and less mulch. Would also be nice to add a fence so the area is gated and more secure for kids who lack understanding of boundaries.

One of the best parks in Plano! Great place to play, walk, run, bike, and just enjoy a nice lunch, like we did during our visit.Nice lake/pond area with a pavilion, as well as fishing, to go along with a great path to walk around the lake.Parking is easy in the many lots, and there are public restrooms.If you're into soccer, cricket, baseball and other sports, there is probably a league that plays here.

Love my morning runs at this trail. Its peaceful and quiet. My kids also enjoy coming here to play and to feed the ducks. On weekends, its very busy due to soccer. Parking is plenty.
