    We came here Sunday evening for some spur of the moment fresh air and to get active. They have a disc golf course here, my boyfriend participated, I walked lol. There's also a dog park, I didn't bring my dog there but he stayed by me and my boyfriend as he played disc golf. I'm shocked I haven't been here yet. This is a cool place to get your steps in. I've done lake Mayer, but I might like this one more! We plan to go back and walk/ run the path.

    I truly enjoyed my walk at this park. Got a good four miles in, thanks to the fresh air and beautiful scenery. This park has plenty of parking, great walking path, beautiful lake, and other park amenities.

    Fishing is allowed in this park

    The park is well maintained by full time park personnel. It is clean and has mesmerizing views and abundant wildlife. There is a back section of this park that is newer built and has additional parking and kids playground. However, sometimes the main road to this back area is closed to the public, perhaps someone forgets to unlock it.

    Fishing dock.

    This beautiful park features a lake, a fishing dock, a playground, a disc golf course, a dog park, a large gazebo, restrooms, tennis courts, and a walking path. This is a wonderful outdoor space to relax or exercise, and it feels removed from the bustle of Savannah, Garden City and Pooler.

    This is a nice little park with a paved sidewalk around the lake. It's about 1 mile around. They have decent restrooms and a fitness trail along the paved sidewalk. Beware of the alligator. They are in the lake.

    Discover the non-commercial side of Pooler! This park has a great walking loop around the lake. On one side, you look into wooded marsh area. This park makes you forget you are in the South with a 50/50 mix of deciduous and pine trees. There is a plaque commemorating the history of Sherman's march in the area. You will find multiple pavilions. With the largest standing out as modern and well maintained. On the grounds are disc golf, tennis courts, and exercise stations. There is a children's playground, but parents should be aware it is not enclosed and within fifty feet of the lake, parking, and train tracks. It is a little odd as the entrance and the length of the park consists of a rail line (yes it is operational). The only reason it is not a five rating as they are going through construction and there are some tarps along the lakeshore. Otherwise a pleasant park to get away.

    Little gem of a park representing Southern hospitality at its finest: Clean bathrooms, lots of open green spaces, activities (tennis, disc golf, hiking, fishing, picnicking, playground, wildlife viewing). I checked out the nearby Jerry Jay Cox mountain bike trail & really wished I had a mountain bike with me. The paved walk around the park was very a great leg stretcher after being in traffic (this park is off of 80 & 95).

    We stopped at this park on our way to Tennessee from Florida to break up the drive and let our toddler run around. We were there right at dusk and we felt totally comfortable. There were people playing tennis on lit courts, people walking their dogs and with families around the lake and there were even bathrooms that were relatively clean (better than a gas station or rest stop). There was a covered area with picnic tables and other places to sit along the walking path. Overall we were so impressed with this park and will definitely make it regular stop whenever we are heading north.

    I really love this park. It's close to downtown Savannah (about 10 miles, located in Pooler) and has so much for the whole family. I discovered this park while trying to find a good place to mountain bike in the Savannah area. Although it's not a great mountain bike trail, I discovered it's great for a lot of other activities. The mountain bike trail is about a three star trail. If there is even a little rain it's very swampy. The lake at the park has a paved 1.3 mile loop around it. It would be great for children or beginner bikers. There is a nice play structure for kids too. There are two tennis courts. There is a workout routine posted on boards all along the paved loop. They have two sets of bathrooms at the park. One set is by the kids play area and tennis courts in a large building. The others are off the parking area. There is ample parking. They also have a great disc golf/frisbee golf course that is very well maintained. It's a wonderful sport for all ages. It's free and all you need is your discs. Amazon has some inexpensive started discs.

    Nice little park in the Savannah area. I like that i can allow my kids to play without having to worry about dogs getting loose because they dont allow dogs in the park unless ADA.

    It is well with my soul!

    Good place to go for a walk and we got to feed some turtles. They also have a dog park and playground with tennis courts. It was nice.

    Ask the Community - Tom Triplett Community Park

    Is there a charge to just visit the park? I thought I saw something about you have to pay to park?

    I believe if you want to hold an event in the pavilion you need to pay a small fee. But the rest of the park (tennis courts, picnic tables, frisbee golf, etc.) is totally free to use.

    Where is the children's playground area? When I went with my daughter all we saw was the lake and sidewalk and pavillion.

    The play area is directly across from the tennis court!

    Onslow Island

    3.0(1 review)

    I don't usually rate the works of Mother Nature less than a 4 star, but my first impression of the…read moretrail and my overall experience today wasn't enjoyable from start to finish. Onslow Island (OI) has been on my Trail Hit List for awhile now. I actually scoped OI earlier this year with my youngest, but we had to turn around that day as I did not know that the trail was only open on Wednesdays from sunrise to sundown. Yes, that's right, only open one day of the week, so plan accordingly. Today, I returned with two friends who were brave enough to come with me to check it out. And you'll see why I say brave. Read on. - Parking - OI is located in Port Wentworth on North Coastal Highway (GA-25N). Right after you cross the bridge over the Savannah River, you'll see a dirt lot. There you will find the small lot to park and the trail head. - Activity / Trail Description - OI is located within the Savannah Wildlife Refuge on the Georgia side in Port Wentworth. From the parking lot, the trail starts on a straight path to the loop portion with a cut through path in the middle (refer to pic). The trail is elevated from the rest of the vegetation and is not paved. The grass on the trail is well maintained and I know this because we encountered the landscaping guy on the way out. My reason for 3 stars is more for the pesky mosquitos, but they were part of our overall experience and too significant too ignore. The mosquitos themselves would have gotten a 1 star. They were HORRIBLE. They must have been enjoying the crisp weather as much as we were and they ALL decided to come out to play. They were so bad that we just spent our entire time dancing around and swatting. They were coating our backs. Now imagine that for 2.2 miles. Although the trail itself is nice, factories in the distance with smoke coming out of their pipes obstruct the view and made it difficult to reconnect with nature. I've read that OI is also a great place to birdwatch if that's your thing. We didn't see much today, only heard them. We saw quite a few butterflies and they say that's a loved one who has passed that is coming to visit you, so I guess that's one positive takeaway from this visit. We saw lots of cool looking plants though, super big mushrooms and a couple of pretty flowers. Other than that, it was a gorgeous day and it would have been the perfect day to enjoy a trail like this with no shade. But I guess this is Georgia, if it ain't the heat and the humidity, it's the bugs. Sigh... - What we did - When we got to the loop part, we walked to the left and walked around and went down the cut through path in the middle, so only half the loop. My Fitbit registered our walk at about 2.2 miles. - Difficulty Level - Trail, easy. Mosquitos, EXTREMELY HARD. - Heads Up - Did I mention mosquitos? Ok, end of rant. The trail info board also says that bikes are permitted, so Bikers, you're welcome to take a ride, but consider yourselves warned. Fishing is also permitted, but only from the banks adjacent to OI parking. So, needless to say, I was pretty disappointed with my experience today and it may be a one-and-done kind of trail. However, if a friend wanted to scope it out, I wouldn't say no, but I will definitely be prepared with bug spray next time.

    Onslow Island - How ironic. On a trail and you see a factory.
