Great park. No swimming here but boats and water sports allowed. Also I did not find toilets only port a potties. Lots of trails and places to explore on foot or bikes. Dogs allowed on leashes. It was busy but there was enough space everyone had thier own spots. Parking was easy. One road in and one road out. Couple boat docks. Plenty of picnic spots tables and BBQ spots. Worth going back. Accessible parking spots. there are not any toilets that I was aware of. Maybe someone else knows. Lol. Free to enter, park and launch.

Ive lived in DFW for almost 10 years at this point and i had never been to White Rock somehow. It was very pretty, loads of fall colors. Great paved paths, tons of trees, plenty of room to stay away from people (pandemic). I definitely recommend walking here.

Great lake park for walking and biking and picnic and water canoeing and paddling. Got a dog park too. The entire lake border can be walked. Mostly scenic and busy in the west and north and south of the lake. East side good for picnic.

My kids love coming out here to see the ducks and geese. Be careful with the trunks and rocks sticking up from the ground though. Especially with little ones.

Great by place to visit for watching sunset by the lake. Definitely beautiful site in Dallas, for those who think Dallas has nothing to offer in terms of water parks and lakes. We did a little grilling using the grill station and picnic tables provided. It was a beautiful relaxing evening for us.Weekend was very much crowded so I suggest you picking a better time. There are kayaks available for rent. And a dog park on the side.

Absolutely my favorite place to walk in the DFW metroplex. The lake is enormous and the different areas to see are very nice.I only dont like how much trash is here. Bless those people who work so hard to pick it up. The bicyclers sometimes really aggressive and I dont think theyre racing.

I like White Rock lake Park mostly as I use White Rock lake as a route for cycling and exercise. While riding around the lake you see a lot of small groups and couples sitting out and relaxing by the lake, and sometimes there are small parties using the outdoor grills and having a nice cookout. I selfishly enjoy the smell of the cookout as I ride by haha. There are some covered pavilions and also stations for water activity like kayaking if thats something youre looking for although Ive never done it.

This park is located at Dallas. Visited this place on 11Aug2020 7:00 PM with family and friends family.Very big lake with natural beauty.Greenery around this place where people jacking and riding bikes. Due to COVID-19 we never walked much and wear face masks.I am happy with pleasant environment.Kids enjoyed the environment.Crowd is less and good place for walking and workouts.Water is clear and ecosystem is good

Theres so much to do and so many places to do it.Id give it 4 stars for being crowded occasionally, but thats just a testament to how good of a park this is. Wonderful example of quality civil engineering.

I was with my wife and we decided to go for walk at White Rock its not the first time. It was a beautiful day and we practically had the park for ourselves. Looks like on Tuesday not many people come in the morning to walk, run, ride a bike or take their dog out for a walk. We were their for about 3.5 hrs. We had a small picnic and enjoyed being away from the house for a while. Its great to this. I recommend it.

Great walking, running, biking, skating....anything trail around beautiful Whiye Rock Lake. You can rent kayaks, paddle boats so much to do and see. lots of turtles, birds and wildlife all in the middle of Dallas. LOVE white rock. Its about 10 miles around and lots to see and keep you entertained along the way!!

Great place for biking, jogging or to have a picnic, its trail is wide and comfortable for users and it extends about 9.5 miles around the lake and most of the landscape view is very relaxing if you love outdoors and nature

Love the trails! Great for biking, walking or walking mans best friend. Lots of friendly wildlife (ducks, turtles, birds, lizards, squirrels) Even some prehistoric feeling nature trails through wooded area by damn.

White Rock Lake Park is a jewel of nature set in the middle of Dallas. There are numerous biking, hiking and walking trails around the lake. The primary trail that circles to Lake is approximately 9 miles long. There are covered Pavilions and picnic tables along with several playground areas surrounding the Lake. On a daily basis you can see Ducks, geese, pigeons, herons, and Pelicans. There are enough forested areas left that on occasion you can see other wildlife, such as coyotes, armadillos, possums, raccoons and Hawks. Its a great place to go for a leisurely walk, a vigorous bicycle ride or just the occasion to get closer to Nature.

Very. Very nice the best place to bring family of all ages the longest prettiest paved & striped walking/ bike routes confluenced with paths for cars. Benches. Plenty shade grills for cooking you can fish Awesome

One of the best lake in dallas! We went there after reading too many good reviews and found this place very good. This lake is a complete package; great trail for biking and hiking. Lots of good spots for fishing bass and catfish, picnic areas and benches. If you want something really close to water just take you chairs and you can sit under the trees. Grills are there , also love the little play area for kiddos.

Incredibly maintained and well attended without being over populated. Very beautiful place offering a venue for many different activities.

Miles of beautiful running/biking paths along the lake. Great for viewing sunsets over downtown.

Its beautiful here! Great trails for running ! Always tons of people out!Im not even from here,but Id live here just for the trails and lake!

One of the best places in Dallas for biking, walking, fishing, kayaking, or just simply listening to music while doing all these. Will definitely visit again!

My favorite place to connect spiritually and destress. Beautiful Lake!

Nice peaceful park for a walk. Families picnic ing, outdoor art exhibit by bath house. Wonderful day.

Its a beautiful lake with trail. One can also do water activities such as kayaking, canoeing, etc. We often come here to do kayaking in the evening.

Just nice, quiet, peaceful. Walking my dog, listening to a little music. Good morning

I must say I really appreciate the staff from helping me with reservations to rentals for my grandsons and nephews. We enjoyed our time while they learned to use team work under a beautiful breeze of Dallas weather!!!#WEWILLBEBACK

Just stopped to enjoy my late lunch. I think its very popular place.

Although you can find trash alongside the water in some parts of the park, thats not the parks fault, so Im still giving it 5 stars because I find it peaceful to walk while pushing my toddler and baby in the stroller and sipping on coffee... and looking at the water... listening to the birds, finding turtles...

One of my favorite places in Dallas. Free place to visit and enjoy.

Lovely Lake and hike! Very lively and nice colors during Fall. The Best hike in Dallas area. Very pretty!

Its large park, with a very dirty lake thats popular for fishing, spot for dogs to go for a swim (although for safety reasons Id really avoid that), There is a dog park and a other features. In all its not a bad park. Normally somewhat kept up by the city and lots of volunteers.

Beautiful!!! Great for kayak and stand up paddle boarding. I saw so much wildlife too. I saw a water snake, turtle, birds, and dragonflies. Its a Dallas must do.

Sit down and enjoy the water the sailboats and look at the beautiful surroundings. And it relaxes me.

Beautiful day at the park. Warm sun and a cool breeze. We actually found a parking at two of the lots

I loved this mostly natural place, it is great to spend time with the family, alone, or near friends.

Pelican Bay is a memory lane for me I love it and the memories i share with the one i love

Really loved these trails! It was well maintained and wide enough to share with cyclists, runners, and roller bladers. There was a good amount of shade on the trail, however if you are going during the summer I would still lather on some sunblock.

Beautiful walking and biking paths. Everyone seems friendly and wonderful scenery of the lake. Also, shaded spots along paths.

Gorgeous place. I wish the City of Dallas would give this area some more love... as in money! It could be so much more than the faded glory it is today. We need thoughtfully designed trails with dedicated bike and pedestrian lanes. White Rock should be an incredible urban resource but it’s slowly decaying. Plenty of room for everyone here but watch out for aggressive bicyclists. Shabby chic nice!

Other than the cops always patrolling, great lake to take a walk with your family

Peaceful, calm, cool breeze from the lake. There are trees, plant life all around and docks to stop and enjoy.

Love the All British Car Day they have here every year. The park is well kept. Ive been paddling on the lake and enjoyed that as well. My only concern is the cyclist dont like to slow down for pedestrians so be on the lookout.

Good place to chill, never crowded. Best view of the lake and of downtown.....at night.

Very nice experience, cool place for biking and walking. Great place to spend time with family and friends.

Spend plenty of time here biking through the trails. Theres a good amount of space to be able to ride relatively quickly and maintain a safe distance from people.

Beautiful! Now if I could only find where I can rent kayaks at White Rock Lake. Anyone know the address? Got list on the trail but then discovered a doggy park by the lake. Bonus!

Love watching the sails,I also fish here, the views are lovely the lake is calming, it is a great place to unwind after a stressful day.

I love white rock but even though there are jogging/walking trails, people still walk and jog on the road thats meant for cars and make it hard to get around the lake. You can be behind a Whole family of walkers for 5 minutes till they finally notice you or just feel like scooting over. It would also be nice if each picnic table or grassy area was assigned a nice size social distancing area, signs and everything, people would respect it more if it was something the park enforced.

We went for an 8am kayak adventure on the lake. A storm came while we were on the water and it made for an interesting experience. I loved every minute if it.Someone proposed on a mini steamboat while we were out there, it was so sweet. :)

Good place to see nature and walk!

Thw lake is always beautiful several spots to get away..police make their routine runs ao I always feel safe. I havnt noticed anyone NOT social distancing ao far.

Quiet, beautiful place to just talk a walk and talk. Sit by the lake and listen.

Its a man-made lake and I wouldnt swim it. People dont realize the water in this lake comes from runoff from Dallas streets. But its got good jogging and biking trails around the lake, and its well maintained. Its nice to have a big body of water in the middle of a concrete jungle.

A great run around White Rock Lake. Great views helped the 9.5 miles go by quickly

Beautiful scenery and lost of space to ride bikes or walk. Picnic areas with bbqs.

Excellent nature and great for an outdoor experience. Love to bike there

The history of the old buildings in the spillway is beautiful

Biking, walking, taking in the scenery. Bring a picnic lunch and your camera.

A nice mellow place to enjoy a lake and do a bit of walking. note: there are roads surrounding the lake that are under construction and you will have to take detours.

Wish there were more public restrooms. Great place to ride bicycles.

Highly recommended For a cyclist this is the best and longest paved trail for the family , if you want an all day adventure. Its a sumwhat safe side of town with many stores off the trail to provide a refreshment brake and its also on many bus stops. Their are also many parking areas.

My time spent in Texas - was many a nights spent biking around this lake in solitude. If you want serenity away from the inner city - spend some time here.

A beautiful, peaceful spot convenient for all the local area residents. Great running/biking trails.

We really enjoyed our picnic by the Bath Cultural Center at White Rock Lake. It was very pleasant. Great place. The only thing we didnt like was the lack of restrooms nearby and that the trash cans were too full. Everything else was great.

Its beautiful and big lake! We visited in weekend and it was fully packed, social distancing its big difficult

If you like the sound of traffic and walking on fish guts you could go here.

Great place for cycling and walking along the lake..

Great place to exercise, and clear your mind .very clean and it seems safe here. I go to white rock for the cycling lots of trails branch of the lake , its great.

GREAT PLACE YOU NEEDD TO GOOO RIGHT KNOW PLEASE!!!!!

Great place place to go to after a long day or for just a little needed quiet time!!

I love to stair and let the water take me

Its a beautiful place to spend some quality time with your family..have some picnic..and have lots of fun

Chilled out as walking on paved trail.betther watch out for bicycle rider with fast speed.

Beautiful place to go. Has a wonderful lake and large variety of ducks ,geese and turtles. People do fishing aswell

This is mine and my husbands go to place for anytime we want to walk and just enjoy nature

The lake is a beautiful and there is various spots where you can admire it. The park also has a very long trial that reaches all the way to Deep Ellum. A lot of people run, dogwalk, cycle on this trial. There are even scenic routes you can take where you are surrounded by nature.Nobody wears masks

Good lake side park for spent your 3 hours at sun set time from east Wifery drive. We enjoyed lots..

Love the lake, breeze, paths around the lake. The vibe of people is all about fitness and exercise and being healthy. Love everything EXCEPT the huge amounts of floating trash I found at the waters edge. Hopefully it was just temporary and not a recurring daily problem.

What a great time on the water. Make sure everyone can swim though we capsized the boat and no one heard the whistle. We had to swim back to shore. But other than that we had a blast.

Great dog park! Separate parts for small and big dogs, plus a cute place by the lake so doggies can swim and enjoy!

Lots of fun! The dogs love the water and lots of friends to play with.

Beautiful and great place to run, walk or ride a bike.

Beautiful park for exercising on the paved trail or enjoying a picnic on the grass.

Awesome place to relax and hang out, just wish there were more trees and less people.

Peaceful place to sit, read, and relax; or jog or walk.

Love coming here on my days off to relax with a long walk and people watch

The most visited lake, and perfect to do workouts!!

Love to go there and either chill and think, watch the waves and waterfowl interact with the babies. Its always a good time when I go there.

The best place to take the edge off of the day.

There are no real bathrooms but there are two portable ones. Several picnic tables and a well maintained area.

Enjoyed my 30 minute jogging session

Great place with excellent hike/bike trails in scenic Vista’s across the white rock lake. lots of playgrounds for small kids. Good spots for fishing.

Park and walkway were clean. Lots of construction. Lake was awesome.

Beautiful little area.

I very like here ! So beautiful! Very nice!

Great loop ride, gets a little crowded sometimes but thats to be expected. Greatest annoyance is riders that expect everyone to be an expert and get shouty when people dont move out of the way fast enough for them pass without using their brakes. Cmon people lets all just get along.

Always nice, pleasant, and refreshing. Excellent for a walk, exercise, etc. Wpuld recommend.

Rented a kayak, smooth transaction, trouble-free fun. Had to reserve and pay online due to covid, but it worked out well.

How do you say anything negative about a park? Its nice to have an oasis of nature in Dallas.

One of my favorite places to hang out while I was in Dallas. There is about anything out door to do here. I grabbed a lawn chair from wal-Mart and spent the afternoon whittle making walking sticks.

I love white rock lake!
