McDaniel Farm Park is not an ordinary Georgia park. This park is filled with charm, bridges,…read morecreeks, forests, meadows, picnic areas, and historical farm buildings. This park is by far my favorite in Gwinnett County because of the mixed use paved versus non-paved pathways, well-maintained, and overall cozy vibes. Like an outdoor museum. Even the restrooms are the best that I've seen in local parks. The location is very conveniently located with a Duluth entrance and Suwanee entrance. Plenty of parking. Even a public garden. Busiest times are after 11am on weekdays and after 10am on weekends. The best entrance is on the Duluth side off of Old Norcross Road. Great for taking a morning walk and then visiting the local cafes afterwards.

Such a spacious and cute park. Bonus: There are various critters like deer, dragon flies,…read morebutterflies, critters like a large brown millipede looking thing (see my photo). The park itself had ample parking spaces. And the facilities there were clean and well maintained. There were various trails that's away from the main paved path. These side trails were nicely shaded and eventually leads back on the main path. The historic farm structures like the main house, farmhouse, side house and its outhouse are still erect. That's the charm of this place with the well groomed flower garden that someone upkeeps. The old and new altogether. As you wander the park, you forget you're in the heart of Duluth where shopping and restaurants galore await you. Because while you're talking around (and trying not to sweat to death during the summer), you'll hear the summer insects buzzing. It literally reminded me of my childhood during the summers hearing the loud insects buzz away.

There are many splendid descriptions here of this entire establishment. This review covers the…read moreindoor aquatic center. WG Aquatic is best of the ATL aquatic center options we've experienced through the past decade. Two pool areas, including competition swim/dive areas, allow for team competitions and practices. Space abounds for personal workouts and lessons as well. While you're here for water sport, take a deep breath (above water) and notice the fresh air! WG Aquatic has figured out we mostly prefer oxygen to chlorine, and their fresh air system (not the official name) works. Spacious shower/changing rooms and roomy pool decks allow you some elbow room, and the upper-deck stands give spectators a great vantage point to see their favorite swimmer shave a second off that PR. The secondary pool area is a little warmer and gives space for personal workouts while the main lanes are hosting team practices. And regardless you'll have year-round swim options here. If we didn't live in the hinterlands across the city, we'd enjoy frequenting for water adventures.

There are two components to this facility, as the name suggests - the park and the aquatic center…read more As for the park side of things, I wouldn't say this is one of the county's more scenic parks. There are several playing fields for team sports. There is also a quarter mile track that encompasses one of the fields. Our most recent visit was in January, a cooler winter day. One field had a couple of guys playing soccer. Another field had a guy setting up for what looked like drills of some sort. My family and I enjoyed a stroll around the track to just get outside and move a bit. One side of the track borders the parking lot; the other borders an industrial facility of some sort. Again, not particularly scenic, but if you need a track for exercise, it certainly gets the job done! The aquatic facility is pretty impressive. We have not used it, but I have received a tour of the facility. My tour did not include the changing rooms and showers. The indoor pools looked sizeable and were not too crowded on the day of my visit. But for me, the most impressive area was the outdoor swimming area. Lots of slides and fountains and fun. Looks like a great place for a day of leisure and play. We will definitely be back to enjoy one day in the summer!

My daughters friend had her birthday party in one of the rooms and it was a great space. She had a room that was attached to the kitchen. The space was clean. There was plenty of parking.

My family rented half of the room for $65/hour. There is a refundable damage deposit of $100. The rental included complimentary use of tables and chairs as well as the kitchen. The kitchen was a decent size and had a refrigerator, microwave, and ice machine. Their staff was friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. They set up and took down the tables and chairs before and after the party. They also arranged it as requested. We were allowed to tape decorations on the walls. Set-up, decorating, break-down, and clean-up had to take place during the rental period. It would have been nice if we were allotted 30 minutes before and after rental time to do that. No biggie. We just planned accordingly. The facility is clean. The (women's) bathroom included three stalls and was well kept. There have seating at the lobby, just outside of the Community Room. There were plenty of room for our 60+ guests to move around comfortably. Large parking lot as well. The only complaint I have and this isn't necessarily the park's fault, but some of our guests had difficulty finding the place and were taken to a different location by their GPS. They all made it to the party regardless. There is a big sign at the entrance on PIB. We had a great time and would recommend the space to anybody looking to rent an open and spacious room for an event.

They have a nice field in the center of the park for playing sports with your kids, sometimes you will see people playing soccer or Frisbee. Throughout the year they do have festivals and different events here at the park and I must say it is nice that they have the Agavero Cantina Parkside (Mexican restaurant) that has been now for two years. They just updated their patio. Overall this is a nice park. They do not have any tennis courts as they were taken out to increase parking spots, but they do have a nice multipurpose trail for those who like to bike. In total, the trail is about 10K if you do an entire loop on both sides. Overall, if you live nearby, this is a great park. If you do not live near this area, then there are much larger parks with more to offer in Gwinnett County. [Review #603] (29th Review of 2019)

This park is essentially in the heart of part of the Northwoods neighborhood (the storm siren is…read moreright there in the park, as is a Northwoods notice board). My attraction to it today, though, was Pokémon GO (the nearby community garden has a gym with a Mawile raid that happened today [no one showed; glower-face], and so I passed my time in this park waiting). The park is kind of a bent rectangled pipe in shape, in between Raymond Dr on its north, Autumn Dr on its west, with Allen Dr as its eastern border, and McClave Dr on the south side. It's a relatively small park, at just over 6 acres, but it's big enough (slash quaint enough) for a character neighborhood with over a dozen houses that has some renown and a name for itself. It's large enough, though, to have two pokéstops, and also has a (very sturdy, though it doesn't look like it) plank bridge midway up the park that bisects the north and south sides. Despite it being in the heart of a neighborhood, it is very, very quiet. It's got that suburban wooded neighborhood park feel, like the ones you see in movies where people walk through to talk. There's plenty of romp-about space for children, but it also features a playground set, a few swing sets, and a few lazy swings for the adults (or kids who want to be). To round out its amenities, there are a few stone picnic tables with trash receptacles (for those summer days where one just wants to eat out in the open, or for those times where having a quiet, intimate conversation may be best outside), one, what I characterize as a, multipurpose ground pipe (the one kids try to walk across trapeze-style, or fit people use for angled push-ups and/or stretching), a few standalone benches, and a station for disposing of one's dog's "special leftovers". I like this park, and if I had a partner, a house in the neighborhood, and/or (a) kid(s) I'm sure it would be even more enjoyable potentially. I, however, am an eternally single guy who rents apartments and likes to go walking, so this does well enough as scenery. Caveats: * I'd say that this park is best for kids who've established they have full control over their motor functions and have relatively sound judgment, and even then parents should always be on their guard. * A drainage creek runs along the entire interior of the park, and the park slopes inward. There are zero barriers to prevent possible few-foot-drop falls, especially along the bisecting plank bridge.
