Located less than 15 minutes away from Downtown Fort Worth, River Oaks is a quiet, laidback suburb. River Oaks rests on the eastern part of Lake Worth and is convenient to multiple natural areas. There are several golf clubs, country clubs, conservations, and parks around the community. Marion Sansom Park is a local favorite for its scenic waterfall and lake vistas with gorgeous trails. The small suburb is also known for being home to YMCA Camp Charter, a popular summer camp that hosts seasonal events throughout the year.

Although River Oaks is bordered by lush greenery, this mainly residential area is completely surrounded by the city of Fort Worth, allowing residents to have access to a variety of amenities, especially shopping centers. Locals frequent places such as Ridgemar Mall which offers two stories of national brands, an aquarium, a movie theater, and more. River Oaks attracts families, nature lovers, and young professionals looking to escape the bustling big city while still wanting to enjoy the advantages of urban living.
