There are evening cruise options which is seasonal. Restaurants deliver food by the boardwalk as well, which is something new. The harbor can get crowded and parking always gets tricky. The location is well maintained by the city and is a perfect location for photo opportunities. The boardwalk is mostly open except when weather conditions are severe. Definitely worth a visit!

You have to get lucky to find an open spot. They've got to do something about this! Can't wait to check out the summer concert series with picnics on the lake with our kiddos.

This review is based on the Pumpkin Patch at the CenterPark Garden in October 2025…read more According to the Community Partners of Dallas' website, they are "honored to again be the nonprofit beneficiary for a magical new project at NorthPark Center, the Pumpkin Patch!" "This gift to the local community will be interactive and encourage guests to capture photos, learn about the important work of Community Partners of Dallas, inspire charitable giving and make precious memories this Fall." The pumpkin patch featured multiple photo ops including the harvest house, candy corn tree, cornucopia, land of mums, gnome village, prince owl, fairytale library, harvest cart and the wishing well. There were lots of people milling about, waiting for their turn to take photos. However, it wasn't super crowded and there was still enough room to breathe and enjoy the scenery. This was a great family-friendly activity and fun way to make memories. There was no admission fee, making this a great alternative to the Dallas Arboretum. The mall itself was huge and offers and a variety of retail shops, restaurants and entertainment options. I uploaded more than 20 photos, so I hope they all post with this review.

I believe I hadn't been to a US mall for 19 years. We had nothing to do on June 25, 2026. And we…read morefound this place through Red Notes(Chinese social media). In term of art enthusiast and interior design, this mall looked surreal. We drove from southern Dallas, arrived there around 10:40AM. We shopped at Victoria's Secrets, Lids, and Sarku Japan.

Overall, not a bad experience just kind of sad to drive this far out of town and be disappointed. Save your gas, you can find all of these stores at most Metroplexes around you.

It's been years since I hav been to Downtown Garland, and tonight as I walked around their square I…read morewas completely charmed with their presence. Beautiful old buildings are still the main staple surrounding the square. And I do love old buildings! The vintage bricks. Their big sweeping windows - perfect for grand store displays. And if I'm real lucky they will have original signage on the buildings. That's the part that makes me the happiest. And today I was in luck as I walked along Garlands square - the most beautiful old sign glowed in the night like a beacon drawing me in - it is the Plaza Theater. I stood there in awe. Yes, it was a grand thing to see! And they have many shows there. I just missed Sleepy Hollow. I wish I knew about it, that would have been a treat to see in this theater. Looking at upcoming events I am already making plans to attend some of them. I truly cannot wait! With it being October, pumpkins and straw filled the benches with fall sweetness. And children were playing in the middle courtyard. There's something beautiful about children playing and laughing. so, now I must end this review with a quiet but meaningful statement - Downtown Garland has captured that small home town feel many of us look for. So, don't miss out on this rare treat if you are in the neighborhood.

Over the last few years the downtown area has been revitalized from a sleepy little blip on the map into a mecca of things to do when in Garland. Today. You can shop, dine, and be entertained all within walking distance of each other. There is even a kids play area right in the heart of it all.
