Overview
Arbor Oaks Park is found in the heart of the Bryant/Arbor Oaks/Stoneybrook neighborhood, located in southeast Ann Arbor. View the Ann Arbor Parks and Natural Areas map for location context. The 3.24 acre park includes a basketball court, playground, benches, pathways, open fields and picnic tables. There is a short paved loop to roll, walk or run on. The park has five path entrances connecting to different parts of the neighborhood. One of the paths leads to Bryant Elementary School. A few minutes walk east on West Eden will find you at the Bryant Community Center which is operated by Community Action Network. The community center provides children and teens with after-school and summer programming, homework assistance and tutoring.
There is a series of rain gardens in Arbor Oaks Park to help handle storm water in southeast Ann Arbor. These rain gardens receive seasonal prescribed burns to help reduce native plants and encourage native plants to thrive. Landfill receptacles are available on the perimeter of the park.
