It was an ok visit until we found the playground at the school. That made things better. It is under construction- the gravel kind of takes away from the scenery. Great for a jog or picnic.

Beautiful park in the middle of the neighborhood. Love to sit and watch the ducks. Sometimes I throw bread and watch them fight to the death over my scraps and I laugh a deep laugh for I am the Bird Lord.

Gorgeous! Have you seen it since its renovation? I watched the water begin to refill, then went to see the finished view. The water is sparkling. The red cypress needles already hint at Autumn.

In my solitude, I decided to visit this park on a cloudy windy day. Sounds like a horror story, doesnt it? Lol; anywho it was cool. I took a very very very long walk. The trail stretches quite the distance. There is work out equipment onsite near the lake so enjoy!. The equipment was fairly clean during my visit; hopefully it remains that way. There are numerous ducks on site; and its quite peaceful in a nice quiet neighborhood.

Just fyi...the pond has been drained and looks like they are doing some excavating and improvements.. I dont believe you can walk around this pond anymore either. Just visit City Lake Park in the mean time until its finished.

Very nice walking path around a neighborhood lake. A 25 fountain, small fishing pier, various waterfowl, and bald cypress all contribute to this pleasant north Mesquite park. The Hertage Trail bike/walking path runs through the park as well.

Although the water was a little green from the algae and we could always use more rain because we live in Texas the water level was a little down but the park in all is a very clean and nice park.
