A peaceful place with a small play area sided by a nice small stream of water and a small bridge nearby... A good one to spend some peaceful time with not much disturbance. Could be used as a picnic area too as there is a ground aside for our convenience. I couldn't find a restroom (something could be looked into).

Great place to walk, rent a cayak, practice disc throwing, organize a picnic with friends or family or just relax.
I love this park. It's very child friendly. They recently upgraded the play area . It's great for multiple ages, including toddlers. There are lots of fun things for them to explore, touch, and spin aside from the swings and slides. It's also situated by a small body of water with turtles to watch and has some great walking paths surrounding the park as well, along with a covered eating area. The only downside is that there are no restrooms. But if you're looking for a local park with great families and a local community, this one is very sweet.

Nice neighborhood park. I visit several times a week to ground myself and meditate. It's very safe and the other visitors have all been very nice so far

This is a great park for all ages. There is a smaller toddler jungle gym and a big kid jungle gym. Very clean and the pond is great too!

Nice place to go for a walk or to run around the lake to get some exercise. I saw lot of people playing disk golf here.

This little neighborhood park has lots to offer! You can have a family barbecue while the kids play on the jungle gym. You can also fish the pond or watch the turtles swimming around. There's picnic tables, benches for sitting and plenty of grass for playing.

When we don't have a ton of time but want a nice walk, we head up to Towne Lake! It's not very big and it can get very busy but we just walk other trails nearby when it's busy around the lake. It's a pretty little lake and a scenic place to walk.

Love this neighborhood lake/park!! Nice walking trails (sidewalks) around the perimeter of the lake. Gorgeous views of the water & trees. This park is right across a high school and I felt safe walking in this area. There were ducks as well as a sand volleyball area for rec.

I give it a 2-star. I was born and raised in McKinney and lived in the area which used to be a landfill where Wattley Park is now located. There were not many nearby parks for the neighborhood kids or families to gather at in that area until Wattley Park was installed with not many things like what you would see at parks on the other side of town. I would say it is substandard and past due for upgrading what little equipment that's there. Add a splash pad for the little ones and a tennis court and definitely more lighting and park benches. I love the city and still come there often. This would definitely be a plus for the city of McKinney to take on this project by spending some of the millions allocated for park upgrades in the city. The community pays taxes and deserves a better park. And adding restrooms would be a nice necessary convenience.

It’s a good place to have relax time.It has play area for kids , Vollyball court and long trail.You can use the grills in this park and enjoy your get together. Fishing only allowed and no other water activities.Also, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset view here.. Nice place to take a break from your regular routine and spend sometime with nature..

Cute park! The pavilion items could be better and bolted down, the playground equipment is probably past it’s lifetime (the structure itself is actually pretty good for a neighborhood park, may need some of the newer equipment available/expansion), and it could use some more trees, but other than that it’s pretty good. One thing that’s annoying is the trash cans are the kind without lids so the trash blows all over the park and up the street. I actually like that there aren’t any restrooms. It’s a neighborhood park and the houses are really close, so it keeps (most) of the heavy traffic away that is really hazardous because the children that live nearby often walk/bike/skateboard on the road. That’s why there are larger parks with restrooms nearby designed for more traffic...

Must visit it’s a great place. People mostly come here for a photo shot but you can bring your food sit here and eat here is one bar and restaurant also on the side where you can enjoy your food and beer with this view. I will give this place 5/5

I've been going to this lake since I was a child. I love it here. The new park is great and there is another one back by the nature trail. The sidewalk is now really well lit the whole way around for evening runs. Also, my kids absolutely love it here. We like to feed the ducks and watch the turtles sunbathing along the edges of the lake.

I give this one star for the playground. No trees, no restrooms, no water fountains. It's not a park.

It was okay. They need more parking spots. And more play ground equipment.

The park is awesome! Baseball field, pond for fishing, playground for kids, barbecues and picnic areas! Pathways for walks by the pond with benches and pet friendly!
