Huston Ridge Park is a 2.4-acre neighborhood retreat that balances modern recreation with deep local roots. Located just off Coachlight Drive, the park offers a peaceful space for play and community gatherings.

A Legacy of Service: This park is named in honor of the Huston family, including James B. Huston—the first settler in Dallas County. The Huston home was a vital hub for early pioneers, serving as a stagecoach station, tavern, and post office. Most notably, the family provided a brave sanctuary as a stop on the Underground Railroad.
