Directly north of Charlotte's center runway, you'll get a good bit of plane spotting here if the weather is right. They could definitely use some more parking here but it's a nice spot for a good walk as the path around the two large soccer fields is nicely paved. [Review 10595 overall, 363 of 2019.]

There are at least 6 ball fields, a small playground and a shelter with picnic tables (you have to rent the shelter from the town).

The park also features three tennis courts and a walking trail that is not paved. The playground looks super cool with a low fence around it to keep the little ones from wandering off. There is also a bathroom building nearby which has concessions available when there is baseball. Both the playground and the bathrooms are closed because of the pandemic. There is a cherry tree grove nearby but I did not spot it today. Plenty of parking but look out for the foul balls! [Review 13185 overall, 502 of 2020.]

Great neighborhood park with a dedicated parking lot…read more The park is well shaded and has a bunch of cool stuff that can help your kids burn off some of that excess energy. The very large playground structure sits on a soft mulch base. Lots of climbing and steps and slides and a bridge to keep kids occupied. There are two separate picnic areas, both have grills. The swingset is in good condition. The restroom structure is open even during the pandemic (thank you!). Six tennis courts are fenced in as well. The gazebo is quite pretty for photos.

Nice park. This only shows the tennis court, but there is also a playground. Popular spot for…read morebirthday parties. There is a short trail in the back of the park, but it's really only good for peeing in the woods or teenagers making out. As far as tennis goes, I'm not a tennis player. I'm just an athlete that plays tennis. I was down 3-0 and 5-2 in the first set and told myself I was going to break his heart and did: 7-5, 6-4, 6-2. He is good opponent, though. The courts here are a little tight but they're very well kept and you can turn the lights on at night and play for a long time.

Cute park, nice play equipment for kids and it's also shaded so it's perfect for summer…read more They have a little picnic area and trails in the woods to walk. First time visit to the playground, didn't look around anywhere else. Didn't see a bathroom close by the playground but that doesn't mean there isn't one. We really like the playground.

Completely wooded area that's not too far from the city. Kids of all ages enjoying the nature center and rock playground. Relatively easy walk with minimal elevation. Dog friendly. Tons of parking.

Of course, the playground was also roped off because of the pandemic and the restrooms were locked. There was some litter in the picnic area that looked like local underage drinking. Surprisingly, no graffiti. Otherwise, the large park features six lighted soccer fields and a nice walking track. It is located next to the school so there is plenty of parking and easy access.

There were plenty of trash containers around the park and they were also emptied regularly. Of course parking for a large event like this was a nightmare but the lot is nicely paved and the spaces are large enough to fit big SUVs. It's a beautiful park.

(From November 2025)…read more I can't remember how I found this but as I'm driving in Charlotte, my dad and I stopped here to check it out. This is one of the most beautiful parks I've had the pleasure of visiting. There are beautiful views, playgrounds and lawn space for children's play, plenty of parking, trails for walking/bike riding, several bridges, and large trees to compliment the fields. The park is well-kept as everyone here ensures cleanliness and top maintenance. As my dad and I sat down on the bench and soaked in our surroundings, we observed a plethora of activity which included some people flying drones, kids competing in the playground's obstacle course, elderly folks walking, dogs running amok, people racing toy cars, and a few people cycling. The positive energy and vibes were radiant. I'm glad we stopped by here. Definitely worth a visit in Charlotte!

We thought this park looked pretty cool, so we drove over, parked on the road and walked around. It was a nice day and lots of other people were out.

All in all, a lovely outdoor space in Charlotte.

Clean. Open. Some shaded areas…read more I don't have children or much need for a park but this park is on one of my running routes. It has a quick "trail" that is shaded and always happily welcomed at that point of my run. I am also a huge fan of kids being outside, playing with their parents or other kids. I know that is ridiculously easy of me to say since I don't have any little gremlins of my own running around; however, after spending over a decade in youth development programming, I love to see kids get messy and smelly. I am always excited to see families enjoying this park in one way or another: lunch under the pavilion, playing on the playground or a game of baseball. The facilities, to me, look to be cared for at all times with green grass, safe equipment and clean bathrooms... I don't really see how you can go wrong here. There is a super tiny parking lot and some okay street parking. I "believe" you are able to park at the legion parking lot across the street. The weather is perfect right now for some park time. Keep the pups at home or keep them on their leash as there isn't a dog area here.
