Lee Park

What You'll Find Here

Tucked away in Irving, Texas, Lee Park is a treasured gathering spot where locals come to play, relax, and connect. The park offers something for just about everyone, whether you're looking to cool off, break a sweat, or simply enjoy some fresh air.

Beat the Texas Heat

When summer temperatures soar, the park's seasonal swimming pool becomes the place to be. The thoughtfully designed pool area features a beach-style entry making it accessible for everyone, lap lanes for those morning workouts, and a dedicated children's play area where the little ones can splash safely.

There's also a water slide that can bring out the kid in all of us.

Indoor Adventures

The recreation center is available for those days when outdoors just isn't an option. Inside, you'll find two gymnasiums that regularly host pickup basketball games and community events.

The fitness center provides all the equipment you need for a solid workout, while the racquetball courts offer a more fast-paced alternative for those looking to mix up their exercise routine.

Open Air Enjoyment

The park's outdoor spaces invite you to slow down and unwind. Scattered picnic tables make for perfect lunch spots, while the playground buzzes with the energy of climbing, sliding children. There's plenty of open space for impromptu frisbee games or just spreading out a blanket to relax.

The basketball court draws local players looking for a friendly game, but you might want to watch your footing as the floor can be a bit slippery at times. A generous pavilion provides welcome shade and represents a gathering space for everything from birthday parties to community meetings.

Natural Surroundings

Early risers are rewarded with stunning sunrise views, especially from the picnic area on the eastern side. Wildlife enthusiasts might spot crows and elegant herons that have made the park their home. These quiet moments of nature connection offer a peaceful contrast to the more active areas of the park.

Looking Ahead

Lee Park continues to develop over time. Recent changes include a groundbreaking ceremony in June 2024 for pool improvements, part of Irving's work to update recreational spaces in the city.
