It’s very nice dog park located next to soccer and baseball fields. There’s also a lake in the area. There’s a lot of running space trees and grass for the dogs to roam.

Located near interstate 85 (north of it)... it's a park located in the heart of the few hills around the area. It has playground for kids, a bike course, several soccer fields, a dog park and extensive wooded areas. A good place to spend a good picnic day with family and friends!!

I take my dog to this park, and we always have a good time here. We live about 30 minutes away and it's very much worth the trip. We've been on their trails and the dog park. I have also brought children here to play on the playground. Room for everybody and many things to do here. From picnicking to playing on the playground, hiking to biking trails. They also have fields for outdoor games

This is a beautiful Park! I wish we would have explored more but unfortunately it got a little bit too heavy of rain that day and we just didn't stay but for about 30 minutes. We went on a nice walking trail and I would definitely recommend. I am going to go back when I visit the area!

Diana Glauch | Jun 28, 2021
Michael Ross | Jun 29, 2021

The full lake loop is ~1.48 miles, currently. I'm not sure if it used to be a half a mile, but I ride it regularly and my garmin watch tells me 1 and a half miles.
