Amazing to think we've been here for almost 3 years now and still haven't been to all the parks even in the very near vicinity! This park is located about a quarter mile down and across the street from Joanie Moser, and it's got a rather large, clean playground area, paved walking path, and a steep slope perfect for sledding! There were kids sledding down even with no sign of snow to come! Impressive, and I can't wait for the next nice day to come back!

Found this hidden gem very close to Winston-Salem downtown and loved every but of it!…read more We headed there on a chilly Sunday morning (would have been nicer ifnit was a bit warmer though) and were very impressed with what this place had to offer. They had ample amount of parking space, from there it was a short walk to the kids play area, the giant man made cliff at the edge of the quarry and what seemed to be vast hiking trails. The kids park was supposed to be closed for renovations, but people were enjoying it nonetheless with the sign thrown to the side. The cliff was really nice too, you get a glimpse of the downtown skyline, the clean water filled in the quarry alongwith the giant flower (curious to know the purpose of that)! We walked around a bit and it was great place to fly a drone as well if you have it. Its a great place spend your weekend morning or evening and hangout.

After driving 9 hours on our way to the NC shore, we decided to stop for the night. We checked in…read moreto our hotel and decided we must stretch our legs and do some walking. A quick search indicated that this greenway was nearby. What a great find! The paved path is approximately 1/2 -3/4 mile around a beautiful lake and includes several beautiful wooden bridges for taking photos, fishing and viewing the lake. The entire area is well-maintained and is wheelchair friendly. There is a large pier at one end of the lake for fishing and many fishing spots around the perimeter of the lake. The paved path is not directly by the lake, rather up the bank from the water's edge. There are several benches placed along the path for resting or taking in the scenery. We saw geese, ducks, turtles, and rabbits. Had we stayed longer, I feel certain we might have seen other wildlife. There was not a dedicated parking lot, but cars were parked along the road in the bike lanes. If I lived in the area I know that I would be a frequent visitor!

Located just south of Meadowlark Middle school, the park has ample parking, an EV charging station, a pavilion that can be reserved, picnic tables, grills, a dog park, and plenty of green areas to run around. Multiple paths also lead to the Muddy Creek Greenway where walkers, bicyclists, roller bladers and runners are welcome. Restrooms are also available at the pavilion. This park pretty much checks all the necessary boxes. My wife and I parked here to walk the greenway and then sat at the pavilion on a lovely day and just enjoyed the sights and sounds. Simplicity has its advantages!

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.

Not very crowded the times I went, so it was nice to not have to share the lanes. Lots of kids and families around overall though. I personally would not come for leisure/relaxation. $3 pool fee - hard to beat!

I've seen some adults love it too! Lol. There is a few things that a toddler would enjoy, such as the one of a kind swings that allow you to sit with your baby as you swing together, and a mini playground but overall I think this is geared for preschool aged and up. There is a big pavilion with plenty of picnic tables, bathrooms, a walking path and workout station towards the entrance. I only wish there was shade for the playground because I can imagine it getting pretty hot in the summer!

This is such a great park!!!…read more We had a family get-together/picnic in one of their pavilions. I think you can reserve these ahead of time with the park but we just took one that didn't have a "reserved" sign on it. Ours did not have a restroom attached but there are some with.

This is Mocksville's full-service community park with multiple ball fields, long stretches of walkways and a whole lineup of reservable picnic pavilions complete with grills. Everything is spread out enough that even on a busy day, it probably doesn't feel crowded and the restrooms are easy to find and well placed for families bouncing between fields and picnic areas. Driving through, you'll hit a series of speed bumps that definitely keep you moving slow, but honestly that's a good thing with all the kids and teams running around. It's the kind of park where you could spend an entire afternoon without running out of things to do, whether you're here for a game, a cookout, or just a long walk under the trees. It's big, it's useful, and it's exactly what a community park should be. [Review 601 of 2026 - 4689 in North Carolina - 25782 overall]
