Theres a lot of good stuff here: basketball, volleyball, minimal playground, covered picnic pavilions, ample parking, American Tobacco Trail access, and bike jumps and bike trails. The biggest negative is that the playground is in full sun and gets too hot to use during the summer.

Theres a nice great knoll to picnic on, a small play place, a small swing set that would accommodate 2 adults and 2 toddlers, a pavilion with a barbecue, basketball court, volleyball court that needs a little TLC, and what appears to be a bmx pump trail. When I visited it was a little over grown but this was during the time of COVID so I understand.

Great park thats easy to access from the Tabacco Trail and also had convenient parking. The play area has good equipment and a functional water fountain near by. Theres also a cute little dirt, bike park that my son loves.

Such a spacious little park. We go to an annual Family day there and we always have a great time. Perfect for outdoor events!

It would be nice if you have signs showing you how to get directly into the park that is hidden from the main Street its located off of... After going back and forth for 3 times , it was nice for the kids.

The playground is all in the sun, but it does have swings. Also a newly added pump track and forest trail for mountain bikes is pretty cool.

Picnic shelter has plenty of cover, tables, and grills that are close to the playground. Theres also a basketball court. Construction on the road outside the park makes the entrance difficult to enter but overall, nice park.

The bicycle pump track here is great for young kids. I can imagine its a little hectic of there are more than 5 or so at a time. Was empty when we were here.The playground is also quite nice. Medium size play structure. Nice picnic area. Great area for a family bike ride and near the American Tobacco Trail.

Nice clean park. Has bathrooms. Gets a bit hot though as there arent any trees around the playground.

Review №22

A great park that is far removed from the main road it is on. There is a great and large covered area for events. The play ground equipment is spaced out and has a really thick cushion of mulch on the ground.

Connects to the American Tobacco Trial. Has a basketball court, volleyball/tennis/badminton court, and a bike challenge course.

Review №24

Major deforestation and grading is happening nearby, changing the feel of being in the middle of nowhere surrounded by trees, to an ugly window out to Fayetteville. The feeling of isolation was the biggest draw to this park for me and now its ruined. That aside, there are two basketball courts, Tobacco Trail access and a large paved track going around the park. Play structures and a roofed picnic area w/ grills take up one end of the park.

This is a cool park. It has a nice place to cook out. There are plenty of seating areas for you and your family to sit while enjoying the cookout. There is a play area for kids. There is a basketball court as well. There are town open fields for kids to play or for the adults to run and have adult time with others. They are adding a few new things to the park but I have to wait until its competed before I can provide more information.

My favorite local park! Great place for family fun! The amenities can be beat: basketball courts, covered shelter, barbecue grill, playground, dirt bike course and open fields to play in! Easily redeemable for events, through Durham Parks and Recreation. This park also has direct access to the American Tobacco Trail.

The playground is not covered so its always sunny and hot!!! You have a covered area if you want to seat and have a picnic but everything else is not Good playground only on cloudy days. Also right now, the access to it is a little bit tricky if you are not familiar with the place. Its just behind the construction area!

Review №44

Good park. Nice playground. Great parking access to the ATT. Also has a decent half mile asphalt trail around the park. Not great for running because of uneven surfaces.Also, be aware that they will be building a Google Fiber hut in the open/gravel area near Fayetteville Rd. They will take out the old concrete pad too. It will probably look nicer but take away some of the open space.

Nice park with something for everyone, from basketball to playground to covered seating for outdoor grilling. The bathroom isnt the cleanest, and sometimes even disgusting, but at least its there and functional.Its a good place to get a walk or jog started on the American tobacco trail.

The new paintings and beginner mountain bike trail and pump track, right off the Tobacco Trail, with a playground, basketball, bathrooms and picnic shelter, make this one of my familys favorites. The mountain biking is suitable for beginners and kids as young as 6.

We hosted our church cookout here twice in the last few years. Great set up with a charcoal grill, large play area for the kids, basketball court, and it also backs up to the Tobacco Trail for those who want to walk/ride bikes.
