Oakbrook Community Park is located just west of I-205 in the Oakbrook neighborhood. The park features a nature play log scramble, open lawn area, tennis courts, pickleball courts, restroom and an inclusive play area with a wetlands theme. Oakbrook Park is also a Naturespaces site, restoring native ecosystems on publicly owned land.

Pickleball court hours are 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. Courts are open play and cannot be reserved. Visit our Pickleball webpage to learn more about playing at City of Vancouver locations.

Environmental and Sustainability Improvements at Oakbrook Park

In addition to a new playground and pickleball courts, the first phase of improvements at Oakbrook Park supports a healthy, resilient landscape that benefits people, wildlife and local waterways for years to come. Here’s what Naturespaces is doing at Oakbrook Park by the numbers.

Expanding Urban Tree Canopy

• 48 new trees planted to expand Vancouver’s urban tree canopy, providing shade, cleaner air, and habitat for birds and pollinators.
• Trees help cool the neighborhood, capture carbon, and reduce stormwater runoff.

Native & Ornamental Plantings for Habitat and Resilience

• 1,263 native shrubs and groundcovers support pollinators and wildlife while requiring less water and maintenance.
• 539 ornamental shrubs and groundcovers add visual variety and seasonal color.
• Together, these create a layered, biodiverse landscape that’s both beautiful and ecologically functional.

Invasive Tree Removal and Replacement

• Two invasive Norway maple trees were removed to protect native habitat.
• These trees were replaced with three native vine maple trees.

New Naturespaces Planting Area

• Installation of a new Naturespaces area creates opportunities for community connection with nature.
• Features 900 pollinator-friendly plants and educational signage about native ecosystems and sustainability practices.
• Nine large “nurse” logs and other organic material added to support soil health and boost soil and landscape biodiversity.

Stormwater Management and Water Quality

• 2,484 feet of stormwater infiltration trenching and two bioretention facilities totaling over 600 square feet manage runoff naturally.
• Captures and filters rainwater on-site, allowing it to soak back into the ground instead of entering storm drains.
• Helps reduce flooding, improve water quality, and recharge groundwater.

Lasting Environmental Benefits

• Improvements create a healthier, more sustainable park that supports local wildlife and reduces environmental impact.
• Oakbrook Park is an example of how parks can blend active recreation with natural restoration, creating spaces that are both fun and environmentally responsible.
