Amazing park to take photos at. The part with the man made falls stands out as a very natural background. My family has come here with two different photographers who both independently determined that it would be a great place to take pictures at. Having seen the photos afterwards I would have to agree that it's one of Richardson's better kept secret photo locations!

Questions & Answers

How do you get to waterfall? Couldn't find it.

J Lyn | Oct 28, 2018
Christa Zachary | Oct 28, 2018

It is by the parking lot. If you see the elevated rock break and creek on each side, that is the waterfall. Not exactly 7 Falls in Colorado or a Rainforest, but a nice little spot when the water is flowing right. Creek might not be high enough in 102 degrees Farenheit with little rain and hardly a winter.

There are three designated parking lots on the streets and pretty much you can park anywhere on the side of the road just make sure you don't block the way on ongoing traffic.

Is this a safe place for the family?

It is a nice little park by a stream. I guess if you stay out of the water and don't drown, it is in a pretty nice neighborhood. Looks very natural for a place so close in to town. Good picture places along the stream

Can you cliff jump off the waterfall there?

Zachary Tidwell | Oct 28, 2018
Christa Zachary | Oct 28, 2018

Cliff jump? It's not a cliff, but a short rock wall. Wouldn't recommend getting in the stagnant filthy water with snapping turtles and crocodile turtles.

Flowers will start to bloom in Spring.

Can you get in the water for pics?

Tiffany Mcnees | Aug 28, 2022
Tanner Dougall | Aug 28, 2022

You’re welcome to get into the stale, stagnant water. It’s getting back into the car or house afterwords that I’d be more worried about. 😅

Can you swim

Irma | Jul 29, 2022
Gilbert Hu | Jul 29, 2022

Me? I can swim, but won't swim there because it's very small and shallow, and many small fishes swim around at great speed, and maybe moss and slippery stones, and gross-looking underwater.
