Turtle Creek is a bucolic, pastoral pocket in Dallas that is considered a part of Oak Lawn. In some ways it defies description; there are mansions on multi-acre lots here, but much of the area is dominated by commercial and business developments. There are fine hotels and great restaurants, office buildings, and upscale shopping with both pricey boutiques and quaint gift shops. It has some of the trendy appeal of both Oak Lawn and Uptown, and also some of the most spectacular natural beauty still left in Dallas.

 

Turtle Creek Parkway is a beautiful boulevard winding through the urban neighborhood, but busy Lemmon Ave. also bisects the area. The Katy Trail runs through Turtle Creek, and much of the public land is like a park even if not officially designated as parkland. Finally, several of the iconic old streets that loom large in Dallas history run through Turtle Creek, including Cedar Springs, Maple, Routh, Fairmount, Wycliff and Douglas Ave
