Fantastic facility. Wish the lights were on a schedule so you dont just turn up and its dark. Also cannot wait for a generous party to help get a real track there for everyone to use. Look forward to seeing it develop over the next few years

Went there to cast my vote. The Sports Center is currently under renovation. However, went to vusit in a different building at the complex. The building is well maintained clean and sanitary.

Decent small park. Located hidden behind a Senior center. The equipment here is NOT shaded and so if you go during the day in the summer beware of burning yourself on very hot equipment. The kids had to just run around because everything except the rope jungle gym was too hot to touch. This would be nice to go to when it’s cooler out or the sun isn’t out.

Fairly new tennis courts that were well constructed with excellent lighting for at night playing. Keep in mind these are busy courts.

Visited the park by the senior center. Nice park. Has exercise equipment, a small toddler playscape, and a huge rope jungle gym. No swings, only one small slide. Its on the smaller side but its clean, well-kept and has rubber turf rather than mud.

Only reviewing the playground. Equipment was kind of old and beat up. My son still had fun but I wouldnt come back. One plus is the younger play area is wheelchair accessible and has seat swings with harnesses.

Beautiful park. Intergenerational! Outside exercise equipment thats safe enough for the kids. But the kids will be busy enjoying the spider rope climb and a game on the monkey bars that challenges kids and adults to move and move quickly to push the buttons. The surface is rubber and the area is spacious. My new favorite park! My teenager usually hates the playground these days, but even she admitted how much fun she was having.

This is the best tennis facility Ive been to in the Charlotte area. Restrooms are available and plenty of parking most times. Handicap parking available by courts for those of limited mobility. Due to the quality of courts the place is busy always.

The Tyvola Senior Center is a comfortable venue with fitness/wellness suite and exercise classes, etc. For many seniors, this venue creates a community.

As far as the outdoor playground structures, these are hidden gems for people who live in Charlotte. Just around the corner from the larger, more popular Park Road Park, the 2 separate playgrounds at Marion Diehl park offer two things that are hard to find elsewhere: shade for a hot summer day and a small, nearly enclosed area that makes it easier to keep track of your kids!The playground behind the pool building is literally 10 degrees cooler in the summer. I dont know of a park closely that has as much shade! And the playground near the Tyvola Senior Center is a small, but really fun area to let your kids play and you can watch them while sitting on the small brick retaining wall. You can even let them bring a little scooter or skates and they can circle the playground. Just make sure to come early on a summer day because the equipment will burn you by 11am when the sun is out!

They have the coolest outdoor exercise equipment to use to get trim and fit. You can run, lift and sculpt your body while the kids play just a few feet away. A must do for active adults and families!

I like what they do here. There are lots of events for children and adults with disabilities. They teach basketball, swim lessons and even partys for our kiddos. Great place to go!

Im not super impressed with the facilities. Theyre too far from the campus and not as conducive for teaching and training which we were doing. The sports complex IE the field are the track or nice once you get outside and it may have nicer some facilities underneath that I did not visit.

Nice indoor heated swiming pool. Open all year round, this makes it good to swim in winter when outdoor pools are closed. During summer the kids can play on soccer field, jogging track and a monkey net close by. One of my favourite place to take my kid.

Raised garden beds, awesome shelter with 5 large wooden picnic tables, a few benches to sit on, a sensory table, a cool looking little kids play area and a not too big big kids playing area. the Rec Center is also attached there are tennis courts, and what looks to be some type of trails on the other side of the very large parking lot.
