Burroughs Park is located in Northwest Harris County to the east of Tomball on Hufsmith between Kuykendahl and FM 2978. The park is a sprawling 320-acre park. It is maintained by Harric County Precinct 4. The park is open from 7:00 in the morning until it gets dark. This of course means the park hours are longer in the summer months.
The sports fields are the first thing that will greet you in the park. On Saturday and Sunday you can expect them to be busy with baseball and soccer tournaments. Information on cancellations or changes in the game schedules are directed to the individual associations. This is not something Precinct 4 takes care of any questions on that you need to contact the particular sports association directly.
There is a seven-acre fishing lake at the back of the park. This is fishing at its best as you get to keep what you catch; the only exception is large mouth bass. There is a limit on how many trout you can catch; you may catch 3 trout. The trout you keep must be at least 12″ in length. You can expect to find the park full of fishermen especially on the weekends. No swimming or wading is allowed the lake is for fishermen and ducks only.
The park has numerous picnic tables and barbecue grills. They are available on a first come, first serve basis. If you want to check the comings and goings of the park out you can visit the observation deck. The park also boast a Pavilion that will seat 250 people. The Harris county engineers that designed this received an award from the Texas Forest Association for Excellence in Wood Design. To reserve the pavilion you need to call the Precinct 4 Parks Reservations department at 281-353-4196. You will need to call between the hours of 7:30 to 4:30 Monday through Friday to 
make your reservation.
Nature trails abound in the park. There are over 8 miles of nature trails so this is a perfect place to walk your dog. You might want to check out the map before you take off so you have an idea how far you want to walk.
