Nice place to go in an open area where you can walk your dog and enjoy the outdoors! Very short trail but the park has multiple areas to sit and relax. Only thing I would do to make this better is add more doggy bag stations.

This park is perfect for a short walk. Always super clean and close to crossroads plaza.

This is a fun park. Went with my teenage sons and they still enjoyed the spinning elements and swings. Surface is the cushy man-made type. Nice walking trail that can accommodate scooters, skateboards, etc. Also a sand pit if you so inclined

One of the best kids parks in Cary; decently maintained and nice toys. Also has a good, though short, walking trail and nice picnic area.

This park is kind of a hidden gem - doesnt look like much from the street but then you walk in and its much larger than it seems. Two different play areas, a nice field, and encircled by trails. Its a really lovely addition to Cary!

Generally decent, my dogs favorite place to go even more so then the lake. Lately there has been a lot of trash thrown all over the place on the ground though. The park workers put a trash bag over 1 of the 2 bins too so the one that is open is always over flowing with trash on the ground.

Theres a little of everything here, and its free. Its not big, but there is a field for any play you want, jungle gyms, and a play area for really small children. Its always clean and well-kept, and theres a little trail through the woods too, where you can walk by a stream. All in all, one of my favorite parks to regularly visit. I walk here all the time with my dog. Plus? Great if you play Pokemon Go. A gym and a couple few spots you can spin.

We always grab some hamburgers from Cook-Out, just down the street from here, and have ourselves a little picnic. The kids always seem to have fun on all the contraptions to play on.

It is a beautiful park with paved walking trails. The bathrooms are close to the park. My daughter loves the sand box. The only thing I dont like is that the little kids play ground and the bigger kids playground are so far apart. I have 3 kids so it is a little hard to watch over them safely because of this.

This park is right around the corner from me and is open 24/7, no suspicious activity in the area or around and nor in the park... just had a one bad experience in which was with the foreigners telling there children not to play with my African American Child, just was intriguing to me. other than that GREAT PARK, very clean and LOTs to do.

Review №29

Great play area for little and bigger kids, but small enough to not overwhelm a little one.

This park is a delightful mix of fun and whimsical with a riot of colours and shapes throughout the park. The playtop is soft and colourful, and there is something for everyone from physics spinning machines to climbing ropes. There is a nice bathroom and water building, and a nice trail. The park is well thought-out and has two sections, 1-5 and 5-12 years, but each section is easily visible from the other, useful for parents with children of differing ages. In all, the park is top-notch and worth visiting.

Review №44

Great park! We love the walking circle which is just long enough for my 4 year old to skate around, but not too long. Playground is great with 2 large play areas (close enough that you can see both at once) and a great hill for rolling down in the summer or sledding in the winter!

Excellent playgrounds (one for toddlers and one for children). A wide open field for frisbee or playing catch (not soccer, it is a bit of a hill). Walking trails are gorgeous. Plenty of outdoor seating, two areas with a roof for shade/rain cover.
