This is a nice park to take kids to for something to do. They had signs saying you shouldn't enter the water in certain places, but people seemed to ignore those. Lots of laughs and splashing heard as we walked around. :) They have several restrooms which were pretty clean for the most part also, which was a good thing. Parking is plentiful, but how close you can park depends on how crowded it is. We were initially directed to an overflow lot but just as we got out of the car, some spaces opened up in the main lot so we were able to move. I believe you can also get on a chartered boat here to go on Lake Norman. Nice place, we will return.

Awesome Y! They have a lovely outdoor pool with fitness classes or just to relax. This is a…read morebeautiful location and easy to find. The front office staff is super helpful. Shout out to Diane for telling me all about the Y here. Being able to visit any Y with your membership is the best part is the plan.

I have always enjoyed the YMCA. I have gone to not only this location but multiple all around the…read morearea, since I was a young child. This afternoon, I felt extremely unsatisfied with the YMCA, specifically this branch. I am writing this review today due to an extremely unprofessional and unpleasant experience I had with a front desk lady at the Davidson location. I had just rejoined with a different branch, and my information wasn't processed through to this location, and the front desk lady was unhelpful, and simply not friendly at all, and had made multiple comments to not only myself but to whom had joined me as well. The YMCA is a Christian non-profit organization, and I believe as a Christian and as an older woman with life experience especially in a job setting, you should understand that you never know truly what a single person has going on in their lives, no matter what smile, humor, and youth they bring to you. I wish this woman well, but no one; no matter of any age should be treated in such ways, especially in a Christian environment, and that implies to all, including myself. I just wish to see better treatment towards customers and members from employees at this location, and understand cruel judgement in any form isn't the Christian way.

You'll find a few kayak and paddleboard launch spots and several racks of them that are stored here. They are also available for rent from the Town. The preserve is far enough from the highway that you will hear almost no vehicle noise. The trails are quite rough with exposed roots and fallen trees. This is not handicapped accessible. There are a few benches scattered about including some that face the water. That's where I sat with my takeout lunch today to enjoy being near the water. Entrance to the park is at the west side along Jetton Street behind the Davidson Day School. There is absolutely no access from Spinnaker Court. There is free street parking on both sides of the roadway. Always walk with a friend! [Review 13399 overall, 718 of 2020.]
