There's white, yellow and monarch butterflies dancing everywhere as well as dragonflies in the spring. I also saw tons of cute lady bugs sprinkled everywhere and beautiful birds! Not to mention the nature is just singing here and the walk can just transport you into a peaceful state of mind. It has an area where people can fish, or take out their boat, and I always love to bring my pups out here. The full loop is about 15-20 minutes depending on how quickly you walk. Oh and you have to drive down a dirt path to get here (not too bad). I love coming here to clear my mind!

Marine Creek Lake Trail is a beautiful and peaceful six mile trail that goes around the lake. There…read moreare good views of the lake throughout the walk and there are plenty of people walking the trail. I also noticed a couple of people riding their bikes throughout the walk. Marine Creek Lake is beside the TCC Northwest campus which is nice. I'm grateful to have this walking trail close by. I look forward to returning to this trail.

This review is focused more on the lake itself and not the trail since I walked down the incline to…read morethe lake onto the deck and around that area. Marine Creek Lake is a 250-acre no wake lake (more tranquil waters) which provides a welcome, peaceful respite from hectic city life. The 6-mile trail adjacent to the lake offers walking and running opportunities. At the lake, boating/kayaking/canoeing, swimming and fishing--with catfish here and there and bass on the riprap--are some of the main activities people participated in. After researching various parks in and around the Fort Worth area for a recent visit, I decided on Marine Creek Lake. Although unconventional in the park area, I also think the Marine Creek Lake area has everything I enjoy re: parks like verdure, beautiful landscapes, lots of trees, cool people, places to relax and interesting activities. Personally, one of my favorite activities was just walking along the deck and looking out at the lake waters and everything in the background. I met, rather serendipitously, two cool people who were also visiting Marine Creek Lake. One guy was there mainly to fish and let me borrow his fishing pole but all I caught was some seaweed-like aquatic plants, which he said is more than what he caught. (Haha) In the beginning of each try, I could feel something substantial and heavy underwater, but no dice. Another person was there walking his Chihuahua-Corgi mix named Finny. Parking here was easy, as I recall. The Marine Creek Lake area wasn't crowded, so the adjacent parking lot had lots of spaces available on a Saturday morning. I am kind of glad its existence seems to be a well kept secret of sorts. It is definitely a hidden gem. [5/5], Highly recommended!

This is a park close to my house which I've never came to. This is a great hike for anyone who…read morewants something difficult or beginner. It's a little bit of a windy road to get to it if you go to the back way like I did. There is some beautiful views of the lake on a couple of the terms you also might want to take a nap because my granddaughter and I almost got lost. She also tried to kill me by forcing me up this very steep hill. All in all, it's a great place and I can't wait to return. This time of year is great for watching the sunset.

This park trail was an unexpected surprise. Lots of pretty views along the trails…read more Speaking of the trails, they are definitely made for mountain bikers, but there were a couple of other couples hiking like us. The trails are rocky & hilly, so if you are hiking, do so in good shoes. I kept slipping in my regular gym shoes, but it was pretty and fun. We didn't stay very long because we came during the latter part of the day. It was our first time here and since we are unfamiliar with the trails, we didn't want to get "lost." We will definitely be back to explore this park more.

We were told about this park by one of the Haltom City workers! We didn't even know it was tucked…read moreback behind the Rec Center WITH a splash pad. He also said it has just been completed and since not many people know it's ready it isn't as crowded as White's Branch Park. There is a tennis court, baseball field, basketball court, play equipment and splash pad (open Memorial Day to Labor Day, everyday except Wednesday starting at 10am). My kiddo was so excited to play today and no one else was here, so fun. I know by writing this review it'll attract more kids but that's okay, there's plenty of room for everyone to enjoy this space :)

Probably the best all around park in Haltom City (from what I can tell)…read more Excellent playground area, several baseball fields (in pretty good condition), a tennis court, pavilion, a roller hockey court (and probably the only one for a while) a couple of make-shift football fields, and a splash park during the summer. Plus, it's located next to the Haltom City Rec Center so you have access to indoor basketball courts (though I'm not sure if you have to be a resident to use them). This park is almost perfect, till you see some areas that were either abandoned projects or vandalized equipment. But overall, the rest of the park is great.

This is one of my favorite trails to visit, especially during the Texas heat because the area is…read morevery well shaded. I always bring my dogs here, and they absolutely love it. The last few times I visited during weekends or holidays, it was pretty crowded with teenagers running around and a lot more activity. But this time it was quiet and you could hear the birds, so peaceful. Everyone around the trail was very respectful. There were people cycling, walking their dogs, hiking, and just enjoying the outdoors. I also love that there are different trail options depending on how long or challenging you want your walk to be. There's a nice mix of uphill and downhill sections, which makes it even better. Plus, the nearby dam area is perfect for taking a break and cooling down. One thing I really appreciated this visit was how clean everything looked. Previously, I had noticed quite a bit of littering, especially broken glass bottles, which can be really dangerous for dogs. Thankfully, this time around the trail looked much cleaner and better maintained.

Great spot on the east side of Lake Worth for sunset views…read more On a first visit in mid-June 2020, music was playing, several large families were gathered for birthdays/cookouts (6 feet between groups), about 15 kids and 7 young adults were swimming-many with inflatable rafts/tubes. The small parking lot was packed and a few cars were parked in the street nearby - maneuvering in and out was tight. While the views were nice, the amount of trash overflowing trash bins and strewn across grass and trails created an unsavory impression--unsure whether trash is often neglected at this park or if it is due to decreased trash pick-up due to COVID-19. Additionally, the one (and only) large port-a-John situated by the parking lot and main park trail emitted a pungent odor which could not be avoided from several feet away...I was wishing for some flowers to stick my face in after! Based on the first visit and distance from home, this isn't a park I'll eagerly return to or recommend to friends though I'd be interested in visiting post-COVID to see if it's any less crowded and better maintained.
