The urban wetland park is a common source of urban water environmental protection and citizen activities. The key research question is how to achieve a balance between protecting the urban water environment and meeting the needs of the users. Based on the landscape performance series, this study quantified the social performances of Yichang Canal Park. The results were used to analyze the reasons for the evaluation by urban wetland park users, the behavioral preferences of park users, and the user satisfaction and behavioral patterns during seasonal changes in the urban wetland park. The study also proposes some design suggestions. The research showed that the water environment management objectives of the urban wetland park are consistent with the users' needs of park service. However, there are still conflicts between the park's environmental and social performances, such as the balance between wetland area and activity space, the trade-off between reducing river pollutants and maintaining the quality of park waterscapes, and the unsightly wetland landscape in winter leading to dissatisfaction among users.
