Currently under a massive construction overhaul but gorgeous veiw of Lake Arlington. Worth the walk through the construction zone to get to the park. Bathrooms are not currently open but it's still worth the trip. This place is perfect for star gazing at night and watching sunsets. Good fishing spots and always a few ducks. Watch out for the squirrels though. They are not afraid of people and will come right up to you looking for food.
Wonderful park, currently under construction though (February, 2021).
Best park to view the sunset in Arlington 🌞
A beautiful spacious park that overlooks lake Arlington. The playground is great for the kids and the paved walking trail is quaint but nice. It is a good place to walk out on the fishing dock and either drop a line in the water or enjoy the scenery.
Absolutely love this place. It has a very huge lake and people can fish there. It's got shaded parking in some spots for those who to just hang out in the car or are disabled. People can fish. The folks out there are friendly and pretty much stay to themselves. The sunsets there are one of the most amazing I've seen. There are a lot of people who come out just to see the sunset. You have a clear view of the sunset over the lake. It's got a boat ramp but you have to pay to play on the water but everything else in the park is free. It's not a place to spend the night or RV because they shut down around 10:00 p.m.
Bowman is a great park. It has a boat ramp, a pier for fishing, plenty of benches, a basketball hoop, a playground, and a pagoda for parties. Plenty of room for the little ones to run wild, and fairly wide open to help parents keep their eyes on them. Surprisingly clean restrooms as well.
The city could do a better job at picking up trash at the waterfront. I understand that's not as easy as it sounds, because as soon as you pick up trash, the lake washes more up. Still though, some of the trash has been there awhile.
Watch out for the squirrels. They're surprisingly brave, and very curious. They WILL steal food if you turn your back.
