This is a Corps of Engineers park so it is very minimally maintained. The restrooms facilities are rustic and out of date. The camping and picnic areas are simplistic and well worn. It is a quiet but sparsely cared for area.

If you are not a strong swimmer, please wear a life jacket while in the lake. The park was nice and clean. Not very many people out on a Thursday afternoon. Will be back.

The city has done an amazing job on the up keep. Such a beautiful place to spend time with friends and family. The fishing is also a plus ️

Nice part of Lake Benbrook. Plenty of places to launch a kayak and places to fish on the banks. Has a beach area for swimming and lots of picnic locations. Also the roads make for great cycling and, if there early in the morning or late in the evening, there are deer to see. While there were a few people fishing or boating, the park was not crowded. This park closes at 9 pm. Make sure you have a fishing license in this park if you choose to fish.

Park is a lot better since you can not camp there. Best time to go is at dawn or dusk. Nice watching the deer come out to eat. Its really a 5 star park, I just dont want a bunch of people stomping all over my preferred fishing grounds.

Park has several places to fish and lots of nice views of the lake. Lots of the infrastructure has seen its better days, but still not a bad place to visit.

Nice views of the lake. Places to swim or wade. Fire pits to make Smores. This day there was a steady breeze coming off the lake...very comfortable.

No sandy beaches, only rocks. Bring sturdy water shoes or tennis shoes. Free to enter until October.

Went with my 13 year old son and our dog. Lady at the gate was very sweet and let us know that the swimming areas were closed due to flooding. We had a great time driving and walking around taking pictures and skipping rocks. Everything was wonderful until I saw a man in a truck drive up to my car, and got out and was writing my plate number down. We walked over to him and asked if there was a problem. He was very rude and hateful. He told me my car was blocking the barricades. It was not. I parked my car off to the side of them. He said his wife clearly stated that we were not to go to the swimming area and I was in violation. I explained to him that we were just walking and taking pictures. He then said that my dog was not on a leash. Party correct. She was not on a leash while we were by the water. As soon as I saw someone drive up I put her on the leash. She’s very obedient when we are out however I know there is a leash law. That I was in violation of but it was only when no one was around. My bad. He was so rude about us being there. He was scaring my son.There were so many people in other areas that were drinking, being loud and obnoxious but he chose to pick on the mother and son. How big of him. I hope his day got better. He was obviously struggling with issues.

Ive been to this location many times. The Park is open and there is no entry fee for the time due to the covid-19 outbreak. But no one is cleaning the park there are no trash can anywhere onlu the trash can lids are left. There are only go to parties with no way to wash your or sanitizer do this is during an outbreak! Please do something about this problem is unsanitary! Why not we open the regular restaurants, at least they have sinks for washing your hands. And thank you for waiving the entrance fee covid-19 outbreak.

Mustang park was a nice breath of fresh air. It cost 5$ per car to get in. I would definitely reccomend a trip here especially if you own a boat or jet ski. 1 con however is as far I can tell they dont have any sandy beaches,there rocky beaches. but all and all a great place to go for family fun in the sun.

Nice penisula to look for shorebirds. Picnic tables/ campsites right near the lake shore. Shower houses conveniently located. Several places to let in the lake and then park your truck and trailer. Also, you can fish from thr shoreline. Great lake breeze in the summer. Go for the day or several!

For primitive camping, you cannot beat the scenery and experience of being that close to Benbrook Lake. The park is situated right in the middle of the Lake, so you almost get a 360 view of it. Fishing, boating, camping, it’s all available and worth it. My family of 7 had a great time camping two nights there, and we will be back.

Me and my boyfriend camped here for our one year anniversary. It was fairly quiet but VERY hot. The few trees around provided shade and we grilled on our fire pit. My Bf used to camp here regularly on his own and has loved it for years.

It was nice. Somewhat clean. I walked around and filled up 2 grocery bags full of trash. Beer bottles busted up as well as cans and water bottles. So I just cleaned it up and threw the trash away. Restrooms were clean. But today was too windy to fish.

Seems like a great place for boating or riding a seadoo*, but the swimming beach isnt that great. Its right next to the RC plane field and thats pretty kool but makes it not a place to just relax either. Well keep looking!
