I personally like Lake Grapevine. Been a while since I've been there but wasn't ever really crowded.
Not sure if there's a charge.Comment

I would love to go there but His uncle drowned there 2 years back... And he wont step foot there...Comment

Is Burgers lake still open in West FW?Comment

I would avoid JP at all costs, it is a mad house out there and extremely dangerous with all the nutjobs out there, if trends keep up, it may be as deadly this summer as Lewisville.
But maybe Eagle Mountain as an option?Comment

I would be a nervous wreck with a bunch of 8 yr olds around any water much less a lake. I would find one with limited public boat access.Comment

Well we are thinking about the cedar hill state park in the ropped off swimming area...Comment

It might be a trek, but Benbrook has some free areas on the back side. Used to go there as a kid and had a blast! Covered tables, no charge to get in and use the area.
Look south of the marina off at Holiday Park.
And went to Grapevine a couple of weeks ago... water is far from the banks... it's down 10+ ft....Comment
