This park is absolutely amazing. My kids ages 4, 10, and 13 all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Basketball and volley ball, exercise equipment, huge playground, pavilions, a lake, and clean bathrooms. I was disappointed there is no WiFi. We came here to do school work. Turns out we only got to play. Oh well!

We attended a small childs birthday party. It was a fun getaway. Everyone outside our group in the park was practicing social distancing while we were under a shelter. The park is beautiful, public restrooms clean and there is a nice pond for fishing with a fountain in the middle! I highly recommend it.

Was able to walk slowly and get my exercise in without a glitch. Volleyball and horse shoes open. Lots of individuals on the tennis court. Other than that it was free reign for kids on the play ground. I do know the situation but this needs to be told as well. Oh yeah Frisbee also. So go get your slim on.

Perfect day to get some walking in! Just enough and Wind to keep you comfortable. They have plenty of open walking trails and paths. Make sure you bring a mask, they are asking that COVID-19 Rules be followed.

Some of the tee signs are slightly confusing. Course is well maintained. It was worth the travel time . (About 90 minutes) Id like to see the different layouts on a big board at the beginning since there are two different ways to play it. Lots of overlap but can confuse at times.

Awesome disc golf course. Definitely a place for intermediate to advanced players, but as a beginner I thought it was super entertaining. There is a lot of walking especially between holes 1 and 2 and some of the back 9. Very hot and open to the sun so bring water.

This is a beautiful park!!! So many nice areas and very clean. All was AWESOME until we got back to our car and found it broken into and a purse stolen. Unfortunately, after speaking to the authorities, we found this is not uncommon. Go enjoy the park but, take all your valuables with you.

Beautiful park! The water is nice & relaxing. Ive seen people fish here. However I personally wouldnt, considering the appearance of the water. Im sure that sounds contradictory, its just nice to be around water... not eat out of it. Theres a BMX racetrack, tennis courts, basketball courts, a football & baseball field. A nice location for a wedding ceremony & 3 play areas for kids. Plenty of shelters to celebrate different events. Lastly, its huge, very open & spacious. If I had anything negative to say about this park it would be about how the adults conduct themselves around children. As well as the type of explicit music they play at times. Otherwise, Ive figured out which times are better to go so those things can be avoided. It feels very safe here, and I appreciate the cleanliness of this park & its restrooms. They have a Carolina Panthers themed Play 60 Challenge Course here which is engaging for kids & parents as well. The course reminds me of Legends of the Hidden Temple & America Ninja Warrior mixed together. All in all, its my go to park nearest my home & Id recommend it for anyone to visit.

Cool place, but the equipment is old and the obstacle course is not working properly. My friend almost died from a copperhead snake at the park! Take the snake and repair the equipment, and I would rate this a five star.

Amazing place for disc golf. Most holes are somewhat long though so plan for a longer round (1.5+ hours). Middle of the road as far as number of trees. Some holes down a corridor. Overall lots off fun.

Lovely park. We took the drone out and enjoyed a nice, beautiful day. Love that theres tons of area to enjoy sports such as tossing the lacrosse ball or a frisbee. Love the panthers kids area. The kids enjoyed it and it even encouraged the adults to partake for some exercise. The timed sprinter area is a great addition!

One of Charlotte’s best parks. Outstanding, world championship disc golf course. If you want a challenge, this is one of the best courses in the region.Great amenities for the family: playgrounds, ball fields, tennis courts, picnic shelters, and restrooms. There’s also a BMX track, but the hours and accessibility are very limited. Great place to spend a couple hours.

Small park nestled away in the outskirts of Charlotte. They have a really cool Panthers training playground which is what drew us there. Its a walk from the parking lot but well worth it. I also saw ppl fishing while we were there.
