Avent Park

We ordered food using curbside pickup and decided to sit in the park to enjoy our lunch. Park is clean and a nice place to spend time. Little cool today but spring is on the way!

Beautiful park. Very peaceful and safe. Has a track in which you can also bring your dog on a leash.

All out good place for family, my kids had a blast

Located on Park Drive, it includes four recently renovated lighted tennis courts, a picnic pavilion, walking trail, baseball field, playground and quiet areas. Avent Park has everything you could expect in a well-appointed city park. Secluded and in one of the more BACK to Nature areas of the City of Oxford MS this is a MUST DO for a day out with the babies; FuR or otherwise!!! There are lots of different things for kids to do and play on. 2 separate play areas. One for small kids up thru 3, and another for 4 and over. Avent Park has walking trails, a small butterfly Garden, and a Pavilion for picnicking. Next to the Park are a couple of Tennis Courts. Although not as large as Lamar Park, it is, still, a pleasant place to visit. Avent Park offers a perfect place for a family or an individual to spend a morning, afternoon or early evening. Two playgrounds, a pavilion, four tennis courts and a nature trail offer a lot of variation for those who live in the Oxford and Lafayette County area or those who are visiting from another part of the state, country or world!!! I won the most unusual pet prize in the City of Oxford Mississippi pet contest in 1961 with my two water beetles in a jar full of creek water, and my story about my PETS appeared in the Oxford eagle shortly after the conclusion of the contest!!! I was a very proud little boy and will always cherish Avent Park Oxford Mississippi for that and MANY other fond memories!

My daughter had so much fun.
