Little Forest Hills Neighborhood - East dallas

About Little Forest Hills

Located on the east side of White Rock Lake, Little Forest Hills encompasses a vibrant community of over 900 homes. This neighborhood is celebrated for its distinctive eclectic homes and a strong, artist-driven spirit that pervades its streets and residences. Little Forest Hills embodies a creative enclave within East Dallas, where individuality and artistic expression are the norms rather than the exceptions.

The proximity to White Rock Lake presents residents with unparalleled access to outdoor activities and natural beauty. The lake’s surrounding amenities include picturesque picnic areas, extensive jogging and bike paths, the Bath House Cultural Arts Center, and the lush landscapes of the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden. These local treasures offer a retreat into nature and culture, just steps from the neighborhood.

Located merely fifteen minutes from the heart of downtown Dallas, Little Forest Hills also enjoys the convenience of being close to three major shopping centers: Casa Linda, Lakewood, and Arboretum Village. These hubs provide a diverse array of shopping, dining, and entertainment options, catering to the wide-ranging tastes and needs of the community members.

Little Forest Hills stands as a testament to Dallas’s dynamic and diverse urban fabric, offering a unique blend of artistic flair, community engagement, and natural beauty. This neighborhood not only provides a home but a haven for those who value creativity, community, and convenience.
