The park was established in 1996, bridging the connection to Patapsco Valley State Park. On September 29, 2004, Pfeiffers Corner Schoolhouse was dedicated on Rockburn Brach Park Road.

The fields of the park are used for local sports teams such as the Elkridge Youth Organization and the youth football league, the Elkridge Hurricanes.
