Locals can enjoy temperate spring days at Brighton Ridge Park, a neighborhood park sharing the name of its most prominent suburb. In addition to traditional offerings such as picnic shelters and a playground, licensed residents can also go fishing at the nearby pond to the north of the park area.

Once under threat of being redeveloped, locals banded together to keep the area’s natural beauty intact. The area offers cross-country skiing, picnicking, a model plane and drone flying space and an off-leash dog park. Just southwest of the preserve, the Springbrook Golf Course has an 18-hole layout and received comprehensive renovations in 2022, with an accompanying clubhouse and café for members. To the east of the neighborhood, Westglen Park provides additional green space and a basketball court.
