I was very impressed by the variety of activities that this park provides: skateboarding, basketball, tennis, pickleball, softball/baseball, and a playground. A great alternative to the beach for a hard to please toddler who loved the playgound's slides and swings.

Town of Carolina Beach Island Greenway is great ❤️❤️❤️ and the park has many options for adults and kids. Tennis court, basketball, skate park, soccer, and more.

So when it comes to your standard issue park fare this place has you covered and it does a great job of it. Plenty of space for sports, activities, and the playground are awesome for the little ones and in great shape... but it's the extras that come with the deal that make it a ride worth taking. It's got a great concrete skatepark and a brand new island greenway that's opening soon as of the writing of this review that is shaping up to be a beautiful thing for all your biking, walking, and running needs. Kind of a hidden gem on an island that is normally known for its beaches.

It was named after the mighty Michael Chappell himself. A man of great mirth and wisdom.

April 20, 1985 Carolina Beach dedicated the Mike Chappell Park at Dow Road and Clarendon Avenue. The Town Council renamed the recreation area for Chappell, a former fire chief who died last year. An honor guard raised the town‘s new flag for the first time at a town facility. A new sign had been installed at the site and this was dedicated also. The local Kiwanis Club presented a plaque to be displayed in the park honoring Chappell. (Star, 4-19-1985)
