## About

Covering more than 164 gently rolling acres in Brentwood, Crockett Park is Williamson County's premier multi-use recreational park. In late November, the park's certified State Arboretum trail showcases dozens of native and ornamental tree species illuminated in vibrant gold and scarlet. Families can stroll along miles of paved, interconnected greenway paths that meander past historic Cool Springs House—a restored 1830s farmhouse—and across scenic footbridges spanning bubbling streams. Children flock to the community playground featuring inclusive play equipment, obstacle courses, and shade structures. Families can also bring their flying discs to enjoy the park's free 18-hole disc golf course winding through rolling meadows and wooded fringes, or spread a picnic blanket beneath the historic trees for a crisp autumn afternoon together during Thanksgiving week.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Miles of broad, paved asphalt and concrete trails wind smoothly through the park, providing seamless access for strollers, wagons, and trikes.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Heated public restrooms with diaper changing stations are located at the community playground pavilion and the indoor Eddy Arnold Amphitheater complex.
• Age Suitability: Welcoming to all ages; playground caters to toddlers and elementary kids, while paved trails and disc golf welcome teens and parents.
• Sensory Tips: Open, expansive green space with calm natural acoustics; peaceful shaded resting benches are spaced along the arboretum trail.
