| One of the bigger parks in Bartlesville (70 acres), Robinwood Park is divided into three parts, bird sanctuary, picnic/playground area, and soccer fields.
The Picnic area contains many shaded picnic tables and barbeque grills, perfect for sharing a lunch, along with swings and slides for the youngsters. The second section of Robinwood Park is the large bird sanctuary. It has been in operation for many years and contains some of the largest trees in the city's eastern parks. (See more below) Bartlesville's largest soccer area is at Robinwood with plenty of parking and restroom facilities and a drinking fountain. More pictures and information on this Sports Facility can be found by clicking here. The park was established in 1956 on land donated by Washington County Sewer Improvement District #1. |

The Bird Sanctuary |
||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Robinwood Bird Sanctuary was originated by Paul Hefty in 1977, with approval from the City. From 5 acres of the existing Robinwood Park, Paul transformed forest land into a bird paradise by planting many appropriate food bearing bushes and trees, including deciduous holly, special flowering crabs and berry bushes, plus hickorys, pecans, oaks and walnuts. Over the years he has incorporated many types of protective brush for the birds. A wide variety of birds reside here both winter and summer. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
