MacNaughton Park: A Simple Summer Win in Missouri City
Some days, you just need a spot that works — no tickets, no timelines, just space for your kids to burn off energy and for you to breathe for a minute. That’s exactly what we found at MacNaughton Park in Missouri City, TX.
Why We Loved It:
MacNaughton Park isn’t flashy and that’s what makes it great. It’s one of those solid, easy, low-effort wins when your littles are bouncing off the walls and you just need to get outside.
The playground is simple but fun, with plenty of space for climbing, sliding, and running wild. There are swings they never want to leave, an open field perfect for racing or rolling, and paved walking trails if you want to get your steps in while they explore.
What to Know:
There is some shade but only around the bench seating area.
The playground, swing area, walking trails, and open field are mostly in full sun, so plan accordingly in the hotter months.
It’s usually pretty quiet. We went on a weekend afternoon and had most of the space to ourselves.
Bring water, sunscreen, and maybe a towel — this is a “let them sweat it out” kind of park.
Who It’s Perfect For:
Moms who need their kids to run off that summer energy
Families looking for free, outdoor fun
Anyone wanting a simple, fun outing without breaking the bank
