Johnson Park, Texas, United States
4.5 (3 reviews) Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #25 in Abilene Parks • Playgrounds
Beautiful Lake View
A nice family park with picnic tables, small rock beach in some places, a small floating dock, swimming area by dock, small playground for young children, and restrooms. No alcohol allowed. Peaceful and quiet. We observed a beautiful sunset when we were there. Beware: this area is still primitive on the edges. We killed a small snake with a rock. No need to be afraid, but wear closed shoes and be aware of your surroundings. Note: We have been to this park twice. The first time it was spotless. After Memorial Day weekend, there was tons of trash on the rocky beach, but the picnic areas were spotless. Please throw your trash in the provided trash cans, so everyone can enjoy this park. Thanks!

Nice park with great access to Lake Fort Phantom Hill
My husband and I went to Johnson Park on a Sunday afternoon. The park is located next to the dam. The park was not crowded but all of the picnic tables were taken. It had lots of waterfront along Lake Fort Phantom Hill. Parking was limited and many vehicles were parked in the grass. There was a volley court, restrooms and nice swimming area. The park is free.

Watch Sunrise over the water
Stopped here to photograph a violent thunderstorm at 6:00am before daylight and wondered why I haven;t been here before. A beautiful place to watch the sun come up with a cup of coffee.
