I wanted my dogs to have some clean water. Be wary of dog parts when somebody brings several big dogs off leash, some ma'am had eight dogs. None of them harnessed are on a leash. They were aggressive and it was scary having little dogs there.

We hiked through the entire North Prong Trail which totaled about 7 miles and it was truly gorgeous. There were some difficult moments at points, but nothing I couldn't do. The weather was nice, there was plenty of parking to head into the trails, and I had a great time. The Canyons are absolutely stunning and mesmerizing know this is hidden away in Texas.

MacKenzie Park in the northeast area of Lubbock, TX, has a ton of recreational opportunities:…read more Baseball Fields, Canyon Run Dog Park, Crossroads in Time Sculpture Garden (dedication Oct 2004), Disc Golf Course, Equestrian Trail, Joyland Amusement Park, Meadowbrook Golf Course, Moonlight Musicals Amphitheatre, Mustangs-Sculpture by Steve Teeters, Prairie Dog Town, Santa Land, and softball fields. This area is also home to MacKenzie Park Lake. Watching the water birds on the partially frozen water was both soothing and amusing on Christmas Day (2022). There were multiple benches, picnic areas, a playground, reserved picnic pavilions, restrooms, and a seasonal snack concession area. Entry was free at least during the winter. There was close access to Interstate 27. On the days my daughters & I visited, it was hard to tell if RVs & truck drivers would find this to be an easy pit stop to access as there were road closures due to a sewer renovation project.

This topography with the boundary of large shade trees and a large open area makes this the perfect spot to play with the pup. You can rarely drive by without seeing a lab or two playing with each other or chasing down a frisbee. Plentiful parking and its central location makes this my choice when letting the dogs run and be crazy

For my own uses it's acceptable. There's a fairly well worn two track in the dirt that goes around almost the entire circumference of the large central lake. This makes for good pseudo trail running. It seems popular for fishing, but I can't imagine it's hospitable to life. Birds occasionally gather here, but I see them more often at other lake parks like Patterson and Dunbar. There's no real water circulation here. It's basically a playa lake turned holding pond for rain runoff. Probably the most popular feature is the very modern and clean four-field youth baseball complex. Once you work your way over the pitted asphalt at the entrance, there's plenty of parking by the fields. A very basic park here otherwise with only a few uses but the best "trails" on this side of town.
