Turtle Creek Park has been a natural oasis for Dallas residents and visitors, providing a sense of place and peace, beginning in 1892 as a private park until 1909 when it became a public park after being purchased by the City of Dallas. Nestled between Lemmon Avenue, Hall and Bowen Streets along Turtle Creek Boulevard, these twenty acres of natural beauty in the heart of the city offer a serene retreat for walks, picnics, special events and simply contemplating nature. We invite you to experience this Dallas treasure!
Turtle Creek Park is located where the Turtle Creek Corridor, Uptown and Oak Lawn neighborhoods come together, at the intersection of Turtle Creek Boulevard and Lemmon Avenue.
Open daily 5 am to 11 pm, per City of Dallas parks ordinance.
Dogs must remain on leash.
Here are just a few things that set Turtle Creek Park apart from the other 400+ city parks in Dallas.
