    Clean paths and wonderful scenery. I think I like this place.

    A cute little park in the back of Harrisburg, Pharr Mill has a lot to like. A well maintained playground, volleyball courts, restroom facilities and pond with a pier all add to the personality of this place. There is plenty of parking and the trails are great as well! I'm not sure how long this park has been open, so I don't know if they are new or recently renovated, but the walking paths are immaculate. I know concrete isn't as natural as a worn dirt path but sometimes it's nice to walk among the trees and not need a change of shoes afterwards. The path is all one big loop around the outside of the park with a crossroads in the middle if you don't feel like walking the whole thing. The back edge of the path is probably my favorite. The trees frame everything so well and you can hear the creek just off to the side. Its a nice little snapshot of a relaxing afternoon. Great place to take a stroll and clear your head.

    I'm sure the park is amazing, but there are zero people wearing masks and it's quite crowded. We didn't get out of the car due to this.

There are Indoor, family and handicap-friendly bathrooms right off the parking lot. We started with the awesome playground. I think it's great for kids between 2- to 7-years old. Older kids may not find it as exciting. There is a special Toddler area with two play Barnes, a music-making area and two toddler swings. I would love if they added extra toddler swings. Yall know how hard it is to get a toddler to take turns, so the line was a little long.This playground also has 4 big kid swings and a handicap-friendly swing. If you follow the trail past the tennis courts, there is another play area with a super-cool climbing theme. It has an actual climbing wall and a climbing structure with a curvy slide. My 3 year old was able to navigate it with a little coaching. We wrapped up the visit with a walk around the trail. It is mostly paved with some gravel areas. We had no problem pushing the kids' wagon around. They added several nice benches throughout the park. They also added location signs for safety. The picturesque bridges would be great for photos. Extra note, you can play Frisbee golf throughout the park, just follow the trail. They have two picnic shelters, one large and one small. There is also a lot of clear, open space. They did a great job with the renovation and we can't wait to go back.

    When we were walking around downtown Charlotte, we came upon an area that was noticeably.....green!…read more Imagine my surprise when I did a yelp search to see if I could check in in this area, and sure enough there were several reviews for this nice little downtown park called "The Green". Kinda finding itself sandwiched between office buildings, I can see this place being a great "get away from work" lunch escape. One of the cooler features about the green, at least to me was their many mile markers that show arrows pointing to (insert city), with the approximate number of miles to get there and in what direction you can go. These little posts are littered all over the park and are impossible to ignore. There are several statues like the three large fish that kids seemed to love and the book statues as well. It's just a really nice place to find yourself on a warm and dry day. Natural shade from all of the trees, there's a large amount of landscaping around for sitting, or you can just have a seat on the well manicured grass. Not the largest park, but it is a little squirt of outdoor happiness between business as usual. There are no restrooms here, but there are trash cans about for that time when you'd like to have a snack in the shade and need to toss your food wrappers. I had no expectations for this park, and truly didn't know it existed, but because it hit the spot AND was such a nice break from all of the downtown-ness, it's easily 5 stars for me. Would I plan an entire trip to charlotte around it? Nah...it's not that kind of park. But while you're there, you will enjoy it no doubt!

    Nice parks with seating space. Books and reading is the theme of this park. Great for pictures or…read morequiet time.
