Beautiful, Peaceful near the water. Bring bread for the ducks, swans, etc. Even the turtles peak their heads up out of the water and grab a soggy piece of bread sometimes!!

Great Center and lots of space to workout and so on. There's a basketball court and an interior gym at the center though the latter requires subscription. The downside is the pond. At times it is polluted with waste and plastic people throw in there and sadly the city of irving don't have the personnel to regularly clean it. However there are ducks that love to eat whatever you give them, especially bread. But beware they may be hostile if you get too close to their younglings so unless you have food to offer them, best be careful in your approach 😂

Great park. Very family friendly. Awesome splash pad and rec center. Lots of ducks and geese, with a walking trail and covered playground area. Most of the water fountains don't work, though, so make sure you bring your own water.
