Exall Park — Attraction in Dallas

Exall is a fun park in a good location. It is very easy to get to, but far enough off 75 that you don't have traffic noise. My kickball league plays there every Sunday, and it's my favorite field of all the ones we're presently using. There is only one field, so we cannot have multiple games running concurrently, but that's alright.

This is a family park. Behind the baseball diamond (backstop-side, not outfield-side) is a playground playscape like you'd see at elementary schools. There are always several families with their kids playing together there.

There is street parking only, but there is plenty of it and we've never run out of room.

Bathrooms are a bit of a problem. The park has only a single port-a-potty, and it is not necessarily...

It is a nice park to walk around (it is exactly 1/2 mile around if you follow the sidewalk); my wife and I regularly walk here in the late afternoon. You'll see some runners, people playing sports (soccer, basketball, frisbee, etc...). Not the prettiest park in the world but it is getting better; they recently built a retaining wall on the north-east side so it doesn't get flooded out when the rain comes. This is a nice and safe feature.

The only apparent downsides are that it is a tad noisy (part of being near downtown), sometimes you'll smell weed being smoked, and an occasional homeless person may be sleeping on a bench or near the building. Other than that, it is a solid park for refreshment...

I rate this park well as I consider it safe. I walk through it every day, twice a day, on my way to/from work. Even when it's dark (not too late, of course), there are a tonne of people jogging or walking dogs so I've never felt unsafe. Plus, SQUIRRELS!!! No matter how often we see them, it's still always special. I just love this park cos there's always squirrels doing their thing and dogs playing and being happy. Just what you need to lift your spirits on the way to work :)

There's also a playground that seems popular and a baseball area and lots of space to play a game with the family or friends. Also lots of parking around the place. It's well looked after, there's often...
