Police did a great job directing traffic and long lines of cars. Large parking lots available and restrooms. Everything was very organized, and even though the crowd was large, it moved very smoothly. We parked in a neighborhood and had no problems getting out onto the main street. Fireworks were very nice and the open space was perfect for viewing the fireworks with no trees or buildings in the way.

There are toilets and even a shelter if you wanted to host a party. My kids really enjoyed their time there and they are 7 and 3.

There are two areas: one for small breeds (under 30 pounds) and one for large breeds (over 30 pounds). Each area has benches and water stations. Please note, any dog with a history of aggressive behavior is prohibited in the park. I wish this could be implemented more strictly but the majority of the dogs we saw at the park were friendly.

First time I came here a girl brought her eight week old puppy into the large dog side when there were some big damn dogs up in here. We tried to politely explain that maybe not the best idea because she hasn't had her shots and she could be hurt. She got super angry and stormed out. Said the puppy had her shots (um, no) and then glared at everyone from the small dog side. Second time some dudes dog comes and pees on my leg, no big deal except that's a training opportunity. He said I "shouldn't have worn such nice stuff to a dog park." I was wearing dirty jeans and three year old boots. I don't care if dogs jump on me, jump on my boots, get me filthy with black mud. That I can just remove. If your dog pisses on my damn shoes that's a different story and while it happens, it's an opportunity for you to say "NO!" And explain to your dog that we don't pee on people. Instead he literally laughed. So yeah, nice enough dog park with clueless people who don't pick up their dog shit. The good outweighs the bad but don't be surprised when people act a fool.

I've been to midtown park at North Hills for a few events. Specifically for a few tribute bands on…read moreFriday nights and the North Carolina wine festival which is held on the last Saturday in October. The park is not big but has a fairly large grassy area for lawn chairs, and kids to play (if it is a kid-friendly event). There is also a small concrete area in which to sit, and a stage where the bands play. In the events I have been to there has always been food and drink vendors, and of course, NH has plenty of restaurants to stop after an event if you choose to do so.

I have now been to Midtown Park 3.5 times…read more 3 times for free outdoor yoga - produced by Lululemon. Sundays at 11am. BE THERE. Namaste. .5 times for North Hills Beach Music. I was under the impression that Beach Music was moving to this area. False! It's still at North Hills where it has always been. There is a lot of additional parking by Midtown Park though! The park is located behind Chuy's. There is a lot of green grass and a stage on the other end (hence why I was under the impression that Beach Music was moving there). The stage has a brook of water fountains surrounding it. There is currently construction going on at the apartment complex located right by the park so it can be a bit noisy. I get a wee bit distracted during yoga sometimes. Midtown Park is currently hosting a "Wellness Wednesdays" every Wednesday at 6pm through June 11th. They feature a free workout from different gyms in the area! May 28th - Cardio Kick Circuit -Empower Personalized Fitness June 4th - Iron Tribe WOD High Intensity Training - Iron Tribe June 11th - Tabata - Heat Studios Yoga on Sundays and Wellness Wednesdays are good opportunities to check out the new park and to get a free, outdoor workout in! I love free. Afterwards, there are a bunch of great restaurants nearby to check out. And yelp about :) So far, I have enjoyed Midtown Park. I can't wait to see what other events they will host there! I will definitely be on the lookout on North Hill's Event page.

It had been quite a while since I took my kiddo here and I kind of forgot how nice this little…read moreplayground is! There are two sand areas: one smaller presumably for littler kiddos, and a larger one with some dig machines and a playhouse. There are also baby swings as well as big kid swings (separate sides if the play area), and a smaller play structure beside a larger one. Around the play area are some shaded benches and tables which are nice too. I always liked the little wooded area surrounding the playground where there is usually a structure in progress made out of sticks in various stages. This last time there was one completed and another in the beginning stages: I like how it encourages kids to create their own play places. Just a short walk away are the boathouse and lake. It's nice to refresh the kids if needed with a quick departure from the playground and then you can return to play some more if desired. It's also nice to have that option if the playground is especially crowded for whatever reason. There is shade around the outer edges, but the play area is mostly in the sunshine so sunblock is a good idea. It's also nice that the playground is kind of tucked away from the road for safety...especially since kids may be in the wooded area exploring and playing in nature. Overall, a great little playground. I need to remember it and add it into our rotation again!
