The 35 acre park has four baseball/softball fields, two basketball courts, two tennis courts, a shuffleboard and bocce ball court, horseshoe pit, picnic shelters, TWO playgrounds and a dog park. Pretty much everything. I did get a little bit of a walk on the walking trail. There is more than enough parking here and easy access from the roadway.

Great little park in Leland. We are newbies to disc golf and found this 9-hole, Par 3 course! Great…read morefor beginners as it's pretty open but still challenging with the trees and tee ranging from 150-300 ft. Not busy so we could play at our own pace too! There were lots of people walking the paved path around the course so you'll have to be mindful of them while playing. Was a little confusing figuring out course but there is a map online. Fun spot to check out. There is also a playground but was closed due to pandemic closures.

We hoped to see gators but missed them all. Tons of turtles though. The walking trail is 5 miles around the lake and easy with shaded spots, and various lookout locations with benches to rest or simple zen out. I wish I lived closer so I could walk this look weekly!

My kids enjoy the skate park and playgrounds. The trials are well kept. Lock your car and keep items out of view. This park is known for vagrants and we did see one person approach our car and try the doors. They scurried away quickly when they noticed we saw them. This could be because we have out of state plates but locals say this park is known for crime.

It consists of a small parking lot, a green hill, a couple benches with close up views of the Cape Fear River. Lately I've been exploring our local parks a lot more and I'm insanely impressed with the NHC Parks & Rec, after what I've found. Dram Tree, though, I wouldn't really consider a "park," but rather a picnic spot and/or photo backdrop. It's cute and I'm glad I visited, but won't really be hanging out here or recommending to anyone other than tourists looking for a unique date spot.

Yeah...it's small but wow...what a view of the Port City's bridge and Cape Fear River. I believe…read morethe parking lot is larger than the park, itself, so it's a cute place to meet up with someone or to just get away from the hustle and bustle for a few. This park offers no playground for young children but offers a few patches of greenery to relax the mind. Nothing spectacular but the view is welcoming.
