The playground…read moreis designed to challenge kids of all ages and it's a three-tiered playground for different aged children to enjoy, the one in the farthest back being more toddler/baby friendly in my opinion. There are so many things to climb, lots of sensory details, and this is just overall, a very interactive and unique playground to visit. Fun for moms and dads to join in on the fun too, with the challenging obstacle activities. Not a whole bunch of shaded areas on playground, and you can smell the dumpsters really strongly in the heat, as they are right at entrance of playground. They also have a covered basketball area, which is really nice!!!!! The splash pad is simple yet so fun for the kids!!!! And free!!!!!! Highly recommend! It's a beautifully maintained park! Concession stand and clean bathrooms as well:)

The basketball area is not fenced and the area around it appears to be likely to gather standing water. The picnic shelters have grills and are available to be reserved. It's nice that some are located immediately next to the playground. The restrooms are open with a warning sign that they are only cleaned once per day.

The very large playground includes a shaded bench for the grownups while the little ones are on one of the two climbing frames or the large swing set. Picnic tables and the pavilion can be reserved. There is a good dog park in the shade that is completely fenced in with regulations posted. It's interesting how much sponsorship they have going here. I think that's great. The companies get their name on a sign and the people of Troutman get a great park. [Review 13836 overall, 1158 of 2020, number 2527 in North Carolina.]

My husband…read moreand I attended the opening show of their free summer concert series, and we were in awe of how well-maintained this park is, and how organized our entire experience was. We arrived around 5:30 PM to claim our seats on the lawn, and thankfully we were able to find a parking spot right near the pedestrian bridge across the street. The city posted a very detailed map of parking options on their Instagram page ... and the amazing thing is, not only is all of that parking free, but there is a free shuttle that will take folks back and forth to their spots if they are unable to walk that far (or even if they just don't want to!) The openers started at 7 PM, and then the main act started around 8:15 PM. This gave the crowd plenty of time to get situated in their spots, grab some snacks, hit the restrooms, or even ride the carousel! This was a family-friendly outdoor concert, and they did a great job of having food/drink/activities for both kids and adults to enjoy. A glass of wine or a can of beer was just $5 each ... which felt like a steal since I'm used to spending more than double that for the same pour at other concert venues. The show itself was awesome ... we saw The Fray and they were everything we wanted them to be and more. The sound and lighting were both great. The layout of the park allowed many folks to stay in their folding chairs for the majority of the show, and still be able to see what was going on on-stage. Five stars all around for Village Park and the city of Kannapolis ... more cities should take note of what a great job they are doing here to engage their community!

It's like a big castle clubhouse with so many things to climb, swing on, use their imagination, etc. I haven't seen a better design for a public park. The little kids playground, adjacent to the larger one, is just as wonderful. Plenty of seating and picnic tables for parents and shade in some areas, along with covered shelters. It's even handicap accessible. It's next to a little league field and has a walking path around the whole field if you enjoy walking. The only reason I give them 4 stars is because of the bathroom. They don't have a dedicated bathroom for the park, you have to walk a LONG way to the bathroom that's under the snack bar near the baseball fields. Trying to convince a toddler to leave the playground to walk that far is such a battle. If it wasn't for that I'd probably go more regularly. Winston salem needs playgrounds like this!! See for yourself and you'll agree I'm sure.
