Awesome place once you get there. You can park or bike ride there. I parked in the ball field parking. Great walk on a nice day.
Beautiful restoration of the Stone Dam where steam locomotives stop to refill with water. Park is well designed with a bridge and walkway to safely view the dam. Great signage explaining Allens history with the railroad.
It’s not so crowded that often when I come here biking. I love to explore the abandoned train tracks and the old water station.
Quiet and peaceful. The city has really taken time to make a nice area for people to come relax in nature.
Did Sr. Pics at locations. Great sceneryNice trail to run on also. They still building also around Sam area.
Beautiful place for any evening walk.
Cool spot. We loved walking here and it was very clean. Check out the railroad tracks for taking pictures. Very cool.
If you have not been and you like trains, go check it out. I didnt know it was there.
Clean trails and beautiful scenery
Long ti ride my board here. Everyone smiles as they pass, its beautiful and an all around great time!
One of the hidden gems of Allen. The parking is behind the warehouses so its alittle hard to find but well worth it. These trails also are part of Planos 20+ miles worth of trails. Area is also wooded so the sun doesnt beat down on you while your hiking, skating, or biking.
Beautiful! My only suggestion is to keep the creek cleaner and install trash bin along the trail.
Nice sight view. Admission is free
This is a fun hidden treasure just off of a hike-and-bike trail. Its a fun and unique place to bring visitors from out of town. There is parking nearby behind a commercial building - it might be easiest to find the parking spaces by looking at the Google Maps satellite view.
Awesome place to walk around
History rejuvenated and done tastefully.
Nice place to walk
Historic Dam with nice pathways and historic signs
A few years ago I seen a mt. Lion looking cat there. I was alone, and thought it was somebody with a big dog. The cat was big and tan in color with a long tail. I looked for a big stick for some kind of protection and looked back up and the cat was gone.
Scenic and very serene place to hang out, bike or take photos. Extremely well kept.
Beautiful scenery, trails and views
Love to take walks here
My family loves this place! So many people dont even know its there! its a great place to take a nature walk, and not get all muddy.
Beautiful little park with interesting historical markers regarding the old stone railroad dam that still survives, and its associated ruins (the old pump house, and so on). Well paved trail with handicap accessible entry and parking. Some sections of path are crushed granite, but most are concrete. The path connects all the way to The Village shopping center to the north, and to Allen Station Park to the south.
Beautiful park, great for familys
STOP CUTTING ALL THE TREES DOWN GOOD LORD
I loved that they feature remnants of the train tracks and parts. We also saw a lot of fireflies!Very nice trail but the random trash looks bad.
Great bike trail. Theyve dinner a good job restoring the dam and making it a place to hang out.
Nice and quiet. Not many people to distract you
Nice and shady to walk around during the day and a good history lesson on the past of Allen. And pokemon stops
Great quiet trails
Real nice path to walk and see some Allens history!
Great photo spot!
The Dam is beautiful with the new bridge and all the upgrades! Such a pretty little oasis amongst the hustle and the bustle of Allen! The Dam is a part of a Beautiful set of walking trails throughout Allen!
I love the story of this dam and the restoration of the park is very nice. I do wish they had left more of the foliage but I understand why they removed it. The bike path is smooth and new.
Beautiful hike
Such a nice and little hidden spot,beautiful and kept up to date with many artifacts, just worried about the future of it and how people might destroy it :(
The City of Allen did an excellent job of turning the place into a park and making it easily available with a new hike and bike trail.
Are there fish in there?
A fun adventure
Great
Nostalgic. Beautiful. Makes me want to go back again and again.
Nice trail. Very well preserved Dam
Very nice scenery. Just went back after 5+ years and Im glad theyve made the space into a more accessible park.
Beautiful hidden gem to take a photoshoot.
Wonderful running trails. I wish more of them more gravel instead of being paved.
Nice quiet place for really long walks
Its a very nice place to visit!
Cool historic place
An amazing Place, check out my YouTube video review of it
The City of Allen Parks Department installed a very nice quaint park along the damage area.
Really well done but of historical info and park.
Was once an interesting historic relic, but, sadly, the city rebuilt it into a tourist attraction and much of its historic reality was paved over.
Nice little historic park.
Shaded & paved walking trail through a bit of Allens history.
Beautiful natural scenery.
Not to bad. Looks like riding trails go past it.
Old dam built in 1850 for train wateringThe bridges etc are old with wood
Pretty cool little spot in an unexpected area.
Great location for photos and reading on the history of Allen
Beautiful
Love this place.
Beautiful for pictures
