People who come to Lynn Creek in Grand Prairie, Texas often enjoy outdoor fun such as swimming at the beach, scheduling a barbeque picnic, play at the “SS Prairie Dog Mega-Playground (open 2007),” or participating in team sports. This park offers activities for both adult and children. If the children would rather not swim, they can play on the massive playground nearby. Likewise, if couples would rather relax on the sandy beach than spend time in the water, that is their prerogative. It is all about making this camping and outdoors trip what each traveler needs and wants. For example, Lynn Creek Park also includes a boat ramp area for those who participate in various water sports.

Some of these boating facilities are located at the nearby Joe Pool Lake area. Boats can also be docked at certain spots along the coastal areas of Cedar Hill State Park and Lloyd Park. One of the pavilions used for barbeque picnics and other outside parties provide enough space for up to a couple of dozen people. One pavilion offers room for six picnic tables total while the other allows for up to eight picnic tables. The “SS Prairie Dog Mega-Playground” and nearby area includes the following facilities: multiple steep-sloped children’s slides, picnic areas, bathhouses, and shade structures. Team sports played at Lynn Creek Park include volleyball, which takes place on a sandy court; and soccer, baseball, and basketball, which takes place in the grassy areas. Children, families, and large groups will never be unoccupied on this trip.
