1 / 2Child's Play at Bachman Lake
đ Dallas, TX
Child's Play at Bachman Lake combines a shaded lakeside play area with picnic spots, fishing, walking trails with views of Southwest Airlines planes descending into Love Field, and access to nearby pools.
Spending time outdoors with the family is the best. This place offers a great atmosphere. We can have a cookout, walk, fish and go to the pools
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families who want more than a playground â the lake, trails, fishing, and pool access make it a multi-hour destination. Plan around the restroom situation and tight parking. Kids fascinated by airplanes will love the low-flying Southwest jets overhead on the trail.

âNice small play area facing lake and having a shade. The parking is scarce and park is not that clean. Mostly Hispanic crowd with nearby apartment complex. This Bachman trail has some amazing view of the descending airplanes of Southwest Airlines in love field airport. The trail nearby this children park is very refreshing.â

âA nice place to walk and have a picnic, but the restroom is awful. I don't know why they don't build decent restrooms for families to useâ

Overview
Bachman Lake's family zone packs in multiple activities: a shaded children's play area facing the lake, picnic and cookout facilities, fishing access, and the Bachman trail system. Reviewers highlight unique views of Southwest Airlines planes on final approach to Love Field â a bonus hit with aviation-curious kids. The trail system extends the visit well beyond the playground. Restrooms on site have drawn complaints for poor upkeep. Parking is scarce.
