Quiet, park-like Garland, Texas, suburb
Oaks is a quiet, park-like enclave in Garland, Texas, known for its towering trees and green spaces. A river and a greenbelt cut through the community, connecting residents to other parks, hiking trails and areas of town. Oaks also sits less than 3 miles from Lake Ray Hubbard, a central spot for boating and fishing. The suburb’s appeal goes beyond outdoor recreation. “The area has great schools, and it’s in a great location,” says Eric Torres, a Realtor for TDT Realtors who has served the area for 18 years. “You’re close to Dallas, so you really get the best of everything.” Dallas is 15 miles away, and Downtown Garland sits 7 miles north, offering a variety of shopping, dining and entertainment.
The Oaks neighborhood is a well established area with mature trees.

Greenbelts, parks, hiking trails and more
Oaks Branch Park and its connecting, 15-acre greenbelt are the heart of the neighborhood. The park has a shaded playground and trails. Residents can access the Duck Creek Greenbelt Trail from the northern portion of Oak Branch Park. This 7.2-mile trail is the longest continuous trail in northeast Dallas County. It winds through the Duck Park Greenbelt – which connects Ablon, Gatewood and Cody parks – and takes hikers and cyclists between the Richardson and Garland suburbs. The southern trailhead links up with the Mesquite Heritage Trail. Oaks Branch Park Greenbelt also connects to Ablon Park, which offers a pond with a fishing pier, trail, soccer and baseball fields. Mesquite Golf Club is 2 miles east and features an 18-hole course. While it’s public, the club offers tiered memberships, including unlimited cart fees, use of the driving range and other amenities. The shores of Lake Ray Hubbard are less than 3 miles from Oaks. The 22,000-acre lake is a popular spot for fishing, sailing and wakeboarding. There are also several waterfront parks.
The Duck Creek Greenbelt has a great path that Oaks locals for daily walks.
