A great place to bring the family regardless of age. The nature playspace is perfect for little ones to run around and play. From the sandbox to the camping area to the stage and all things in-between, there is plenty to keep the kids entertained. Plus the hiking trail is just long enough to stretch your legs and enjoy the outdoors.

Really cool shaded playground. Definitely one of the top free best place to bring the kids in Raleigh. Only complain is that they dont have any trash cans, so be prepared and bring empty bags to pack any trash that you might have.

Awesome place for the kids to play and learn about natural. Great for helping to cultivate a love for the outdoors in a controlled environment

What a great place for kids of all ages! Lots of places to get dirty, climb, dig for fossils, and be in nature. Plenty of seating for adults, shade, and all the activities are close to each other.

Wonderful place, always plenty of interesting activities for all ages and knowledgeable educators

Awesome to have a place like this, so kids can see there are other ways to enjoy places that are not the plastic organized great playgrounds in the city.

Great place to take kids. Lots of activities and play stations (no not the tech kind).

Best damn ecostation Ive ever visited.

Awesome place to go when you have nothing better to do. Son loved looking for animals and items on the scavenger hunt paper.

Bit of a hidden gem. A great natural playground for the kids. Pleasant staff. Nice quiet hikes. Sit and listen to the grass in the wind.

Wonderful place to view wildlife right inside Raleigh! I saw birds there that I have never seen in my life. Wish they could stay open past 4:30pm though...you just hate to leave it once there.

Lots of activities for kids (2-12). Several different paths and landscapes. Educational. Really beautiful. Something for everyone.

Absolute hidden nature gem right here in Raleigh. A wonderful place to see/learn about the nature were we live.

Love this place! What great things to teach our kids!

A great learning experience for the whole family. Also, the staff is extremely nice.

Great place to walk around during lunch or have a meeting. Great place to be in nature in the middle of the city.

Great educational field trip experience

Really green lots to see and do

Hidden gem.

A nature oasis near the State Fairgrounds.
