The pavilion in Cedar Street Park

The Town of Loxley has so much to offer its citizens, but the really true diamonds are the parks and the recreation opportunities. Managed and maintained by a former country club greens keeper, his crew, and the town's landscaper, the parks are kept in such pristine condition that one feels totally at home on every visit. The recreational facilities, baseball and football fields are looked after with such care that it is the primary location for many of the area's tournaments.

There are two main town parks: The Loxley Municipal Park and the Cedar Street Park. A total of six baseball fields are available to local baseball, T-ball, and softball teams. The Loxley Bengals Football Field is actually located on Baldwin County School Board property, but is maintained by the Town of Loxley's Parks and Recreation staff.

 

 

The Loxley Municipal Park is the largest of the recreational areas. One can find the excitement of a baseball or softball game in one of its three state of the art fields or can find the time to walk around the 1/2 mile walking trail set in the shadow of hundreds of beautiful southern pines, while leaving the children in an enclosed, ultra modern, children's playground. The Loxley Civic Center is also located inside the park. If you are looking for a relaxing outdoor venue for a birthday party or family get together, the park has three covered pavilions for our guests. There is even a horseshoe pit for those who are enthusiastic about sharing that activity with family and friends. Landscaped with beautiful seasonal flowers and shrubbery, one need to go no further to experience all of the colors that nature can offer.

The Cedar Street Park is located on the corner of Cedar Street and Relham Drive. It is manicured as well as the Municipal Park, but does not have the amenities offered at the main recreational area. It does have a large gazebo pavilion with picnic tables that can be used for family outings, birthdays and just plain friendly get-togethers. There is also an older children's playground with swings, slides, and a hand turned carousel.
