We went to check out the playgrounds on this particular day, and there is two separate playgrounds which have their own parking lot. You will need to drive to each one, they are not close enough to walk. The first one was near a shelter and bathroom and had more to do. Though the second one I preferred because it was in the shade but there was no bathroom. This was the only frustrating part because I feel like you have to cut your time short or pack everyone up just to go pee. I hope they consider a solution for this because it's enough of a drawback for me not to consider going again. I have also played volleyball here and I can attest that they are great courts!

There's plenty of tree coverage too, making this a great playground to come to on those hot summer days to keep from getting sunburned. There's also a splash pad and adjacent pool. The pad was open this past summer but the pool was closed. Nice place to take the kiddos!

I wish the tennis courts allowed for pickleball, especially because they have lights and we don't really have any lighted options in Winston (except out in Old Town). That said, there is a bit of a homeless problem in the area that seems more manifest at night. Just a heads-up.

There's a track as well but I'm not sure if this is part of the park or the school. You can walk on the trails that go parallel to Peters Creek. They have several bridges you can use to cross back and forth. The trails do go under the Glade Street bridge on the south side (park boundary ends here). The bridge is a little sketchy with all the liter and graffiti. Never had any issues though. Overall, Hanes Park is a nice park to enjoy the day. Dog friendly too.

You can't swim in the deep end due to divers which is a bummer. Only during the adult swim time. I understand it's for safety but the other section crowds fast due to this. I would come back on a weekday at opening to avoid super crowds. I came on a Monday for 3 hours and that was enough for me (due to crowding) Snack bar is cash only.

They are doing construction so we had to park on one of the adjacent parking lots, not the Carousel parking lot.

Whether you're looking to bike, walk, paddle boat, or take your kids to the playground, there is something for everyone. You can also reserve spaces for events like birthday parties. The paved trail makes the park super easy to navigate and the park even hosts events from time to time. The grounds are well kept and there are public restrooms in close proximity to the playground. I highly recommend Country Park to anyone who is trying to get their steps in or even just lounge by the pond reading a book.

The trails are paved and run from just passed Robinhood road to Country Club Road. Several benches along the path as well. Small creek runs alongside the entire path. Lots of shade. It is dog friendly with several spots to dump your poop bags. There is also a dog park for both large and small dogs. It is fairly large. There are picnic tables under the gazebo connected to the restrooms. There is a children's play area and the path also runs alongside a property that has beautiful horses. The path is connected to several local communities....lucky them! Definitely a park that you can come exercise or come do some reading, relaxing or even "Work from home"! Check it out you will not be disappointed!

One note: there's a lady with a neck fan who dominates the small-dog portion of the dog park. And she is there ever. Single. Day. She acts like she runs the place and she has a mean little dog who terrorizes most pups who try to enter. She will lazily call, "oh, he jut wants to play!" As her horrible dog tries to menace your pets, then rolls her eyes and eventually strolls over when the horrid thing gets actively violent. I think she likes having the park to herself, and she gets there super early, so everyone else just sort of avoids her spot. The good news is that she's usually gone by 10 or 11 AM, but she's a menace.

It offers a ton of parking, a pool, gazebos and kayaks for rent, and activities for kids. City Lake hosts community events from time to time, and it can get quite crowded on those days, but go during an off-hour and its fairly serene. For walkers, there's a view of the lake and some interesting wildlife (Muscovy ducks, anyone?). The trails also connect to the Piedmont Environmental Center, which is worth remembering should PEC parking ever fill up. Whether you want to swim, fish, paddle, or stroll, City Lake Park has what you need to be able to enjoy the outdoors.
