Pretty neat little place. Good to take dogs and kids to get out of the house.
Dear my fellow Texans,
I am writing as a worried and concerned mother. This is a warning.... hooligans frequent this park.. your children are in danger. I was bird watching and a scruffy young chap snatched up my binoculars and threw them over the fence, causing the pigeons a shock.. he proceeded to laugh at me and call me an Old Hag. I am NOT old........ Oh heavens, how they torment me. If anyone knows a lad by the name of Reggie, tell him I am appalled and will be taking further action.......... 😡 Spread the word on the Texas facebook community, both citizens and bird watchers alike shall seek vengeance.

This is a really nice park. They are doing construction on the baseball field, but the rest of the park is great. Nice paved trails, mostly shaded, outdoor basketball court, nice playground, many picnic tables scattered along the trail with paving up to and under the tables so a wheel chair could go there. There was a nice group of picnic tables under a nice room for bad weather and nice restrooms at the parking lot. The trails connect the park to many other areas along the Big Fossil Creek river.
... One of the things I have always admired about the various parks departments in the Metroplex is the creative use of what was once considered junk land, creeks, rivers and floodplains, turning them into some of the best parks 🏞️ to be had...
... Weaving together hiking and biking trails from one end of Tarrant county to the other, transporting ourselves, with the simple act of walking through our urban wilderness, uncluttering my mindset and breathing in a fresh perspective on life, ready again to take on the world...
... Anywho that's how it works for me...

Surprising amount of biodiversity for a park that's tucked away in a city. There's some recreation areas for basketball, picnic, and a play area for children.
I saw a couple of small off the pavement trails and while they're less than 100 feet, it was enough to "almost" make you forget that you're in the middle of civilization.
I saw teenagers and parents with their kids here. Good beginner level park but great if you're into local insects and birds.

Nice walking trails, little play area for kids but overall good size for the secluded location. Not anywhere I would expect to see a park. But very neat.
This place was awesome!! Just a peaceful walk while enjoying nature! Got an opportunity to meet Marcus, he's the guy that helps keep up the park! Very knowledgeable and nice guy! He explained the park layout and was able to direct me to where I could find more nature! I will be back to visit! Thank you Marcus!
