This small lake and trail has a wonderful view, peaceful setting and is right in the middle of Dallas and close to the Park Cities, Northwest Dallas and Bluffview neighborhoods. Great for dog lovers, picnics and relaxation. Located on the cusp of a very diverse but somewhat lower class area with mainly Spanish speaking residents, families and businesses, but strangely also down the street from upper middle class areas with wealthy households. You will see beggars, wanderers, and less desirables loitering around, so do be careful. I cant recommend women coming alone or anyone being there in the evening. The Bachman area is just not safe enough for that. Lot of crime, drugs and shady people living in low rent apartments nearby. Lake and greens could be maintained better. Water is a fairly filthy, and there is a bit of trash and litter in places. No facilities like a restroom or anything either. Easy access by DART bus and good amount of parking available. While its not nearly as safe or clean as White Rock Lake, this is a decent park to try out or visit if you live nearby. But I cant recommend going out of your way to come here though.

Its always nice to find places like this in the city. Park has big nice like, which is full of birds and occasionally peoples rowing kayaks. It has nice, lengthy walking trail around the like, I really enjoyed jogging there. We were jogging at Sunday afternoon, it wasnt very busy, just other people enjoying jogging or walking. There are few areas with picnic tables, and 2 children playgrounds. Most people are bothered with the fact that this park is neighbour of Dallas Love field airport. I wasnt . It was fun to watch air-planes landing, and I think it would be interesting for little ones too. Even if you dont like sound of air-plane engines, and find it hard to relax, this park is really good place for jogging. And pictures are awesome in the evening.

This is not a park anymore, but a meeting site for crack heads, prostitutes, weed smokers and drunk people driving their trucks with loud music. There is a guy walking around selling bootleg movies!! how ghetto. The water is contaminated with trash and beer bottles. Cant even get into the park due to people that come in to show off their trucks and low riders, they are so many that makes it impossible to enter or exit the park. Unfortunately, this is the closest park from where I live, thank God Im moving from this area full of hoodlums. The only time is peaceful is early in the morning on a cold day. If you are trying to have a good family time and enjoy the view while eating some ice cream... Run, dont walk, RUN away from here.

OK park. A little short on amenities, and I did not see a bathroom nor a sink (and thus I hoped, running water). Only portable (chemical) toilets, and they were DISGUSTING. So happy I pee standing up! Rinsed my hands in the drinking fountain. I was on the north side, in the park proper, at the open-air shelter (with a few picnic tables). Was here for a 5K run. Good place for a run, or a walk, or a picnic, just short on amenities... However, there are plenty of commercial options available on Northwest Highway. It was also fun watching the planes on approach for a landing. Rowing club, on the south west side, was also a happening place.
