Mathew Lake is a modest reservoir located on the eastern edge of the Dallas area. It is primarily a water retention feature, helping manage rainfall and runoff in a region that alternates between drought and heavy downpours.
The lake is surrounded by trees and natural vegetation, providing quiet habitats for frogs, birds, and insects. There are no major recreational features, but it supports the city’s larger stormwater and ecological management goals.
