The park has a number of small tables that are perfect for a picnic or for setting up a chess board. The grass would be ideal for a picnic blanket. There is no playground or restroom facility. There is some parking across the street and wrapped around the block, but it's not perfect. It is still a five star park. [Review 15443 overall, 947 of 2021, number 2990 in North Carolina.]

First off, the dog park is amazing. Huge with lots of space, separated areas for small and large dogs, agility play equipment, benches and the like. You must have a city dog license and it seems that access to the park is using an RF tag to open the gate. Nearby, an ADA compliant playground, fitness equipment and a disc golf course. And that's just half the park. On the other side, a regular playground with a splashpag, picnic shelters, a massive baseball/softball complex and walking trails and a mountain bike trail. Huge parking area. Many of the fields are lighted. And there is a public restroom near the playground. Wow! [Review 16906 overall - 3233 in North Carolina - 422 of 2022.]
