Burroughs Park
Burroughs
Park is situated on 320.6 acres on Hufsmith Road
between Kuykendahl and FM2978. What once was the homestead of
Roy Campbell Burroughs is now the site of one of Harris County’s
premier parks. The park features a playground suitable for able
bodied and disabled children, miles of nature trails, a
beautifully crafted pavilion, a stock lake great for fishing,
and an abundance of soccer and baseball facilities. The park is
home to a wildlife rehabilitation center and also houses a duck
pond. Burroughs Park is also home to the historic Tomball Depot
that for years greeted residents who came into town from the
east along FM2920. Future plans are to make the historic
building into a museum, preserving the area’s heritage. Very few
of these once prominent depots, that were in every little town
along the tracks, are now in existence.
BURROUGHS IS A COUNTY PARK – PLEASE CALL 281-353-4196.
