I've also done long runs out here training for trail ultras over the last decade and have enjoyed that. If you are a trail runner/hiker/or just want to up your game and get fit COME HERE! The nature views are colorful and it is tucked behind a neighborhood that makes you feel as if you are not in DFW anymore. If you enjoy boating they also have a dock area as well as a pavilion to bring your picnic baskets or cooler etc. They have a main entrance where they check you in but it is a free park to the public. There's also a cute marina café and other things to explore. Come enjoy and get your nature on now that the weather is cooling off.

After the gate is closed if you need to be let out, you have to call the police. But there's so much to do here! Not just the swimming area! There's a hiking trail, playground and walking trails. Beautiful views and plenty of space to social distance yourself. The trails are available for no fee as far as I could tell, but the swimming area near WhoaZone is $5. They do not take cash, only debit/credit card. The swimming area has a playground and picnic areas. I think there's a spot to cast your kayaks off over there too, but I stayed near the beach and didn't explore anything else. I saw vehicles with kayaks going over on the other side. If you have water shoes, I'd say bring them and a beach umbrella as there's no shade. The sand isn't too uncomfortable to lie in, there's just cigarette butts here and there. But I definitely recommend visiting for the day or even camping if you're into it!

Someone recommended this to me as a "sandy beach". It is a beach, and there is some sand, but the…read moreshore is probably a 50/50 mix of packed dirt and sharp pebbles. OUCH! The rock bottom extends out a couple of yards into the water, where it turns to clay. For swimmers, the rockiness is less of an issue - get past the rocks and swim/float your heart out, but the rocks along the shore make it significantly less enjoyable for babies. Running along the shore and splashing in the shallow water is painful without water shoes. For a true SANDY BEACH, check out Twin Points Park at Eagle Mountain Lake or Little Elm on Lake Lewisville instead. Twin Points is nicer, if you're deciding between the two. Pros: it's a pretty spot, with nice views. Plenty of parking - $5 per car. CREDIT/DEBIT ONLY. There is a dock for jumping off (which we didn't notice until we were leaving, sadly!). Not very crowded on a Saturday in August. Pretty clean, other than the bathrooms. Alcohol permitted (or if not permitted, certainly not regulated). Days swimming at the lake are SO MUCH FUN! Aside from the rocky shore, the only big negative was how gross the bathrooms were. We were there pretty early, so clearly they aren't cleaned daily. Also, the whoa zone is SO EXPENSIVE!!!! It looks fun but I cannot wrap my head around the fact that people pay that much to be there. It's $22 a person for ONE HOUR! Mon-Thurs they also offer a $50 all day pass. For our family of 7, I consider that cost prohibitive. Overall, it was a fun day at the lake, but Meadowmere Park is just not the best DFW has to offer.

We have been out for Christmas as well as during the summer and it was two different shows, which is great for a free show. Evening shows have music, I've been told the daytime doesn't. Also there are plenty of restaurants around in the area for you to enjoy a drink/food while waiting for the show. The show runs about 20 minutes. You can go online and see what the times are for the show as they do change.

It's an absolute must-visit for history buffs, families, and rail enthusiasts alike!

There was a mask dispenser, which we felt was quite thoughtful. Signage tells you which station you are approaching.

I had been looking forward to a day of fun and relaxing sightseeing and the tour guide being so pushy and interjecting himself into every conversation was beyond irritating. Not worth the money.

Fort Worth Central Station-- Fort Worth, TX…read more The Historic Wall was dedicated on Feb. 24, 2002, to commemorate the important and vibrant African-American commercial and historic warehouse district that existed at the site of the Fort Worth Central Station between 1865 and 1940. Trinity Metro developed this display to perpetuate the economic and cultural contributions of this era. Panel A | 1865-1876: The first panel of the Historic Wall celebrates the infancy of Fort Worth. African Americans were among the cowboys driving cattle to the city, as well as owning saloons and other service businesses. The first recorded African-American businessman was John Pratt, a blacksmith, in 1865. Panel B | 1876-1900: In 1876, the train arrived in Fort Worth brining settlers of Chinese, Irish and Africa-American descent to live in the city. Other transportation options sprung up including the first horse-drawn trolley. Panel C | 1900-1920: By 1907, there were more than 50 African-American-owned businesses flourishing in the area including doctors, hotels, barbershops, dentists, tailors, millineries, butchers, grocers and beauty shops. Panel D | 1920-1930: This era marked the beginning of modernization in Fort Worth. Deliveries were made by motor cars, as there were no more horses and mules in town. The city and the African-American business district began to diversify. Panel E | 1930-1940: The jazz age came to Fort Worth in a big way with performances at the Ritz Theater and Jim Hotel and the Masonic Mosque. T. Bone Walker (just learned about him at a Blues Festival ), Mahalia Jackson, Pops Carter, local drummer Sonny Strain and many others were seen at local clubs wearing zoot suits and saddle shoes. #FortWorthCentralStation #HistoryLesson #FunFacts #TheMoreYouknow #BlackHistory
