Myra Rice

Best spot in the Triangle for watching the sunset in my humble opinion. I always snap a photo or two. So lovely!

Lill K.

Honestly one of my favorite places to go on a beautiful day. Picnics are easy and comfortable , and there is something for everyone. Field . Boat rental . Playground . Nature Trails . Bike skills area. Etc

Jeff Haasz

So beautiful here! Sail boats, kites , not crowded !! Volleyball net, picnic tables , great place to throw the frisbe and hang out with friends and family. Nice trails here as well .

A sure sign of spring is when the shoes come off outdoors. Go barefoot and enjoy the weather! Read more

Beth Shugg

Nice trails - especially for mountain bikers - but some trails get a little to close to I-40, which takes away the peacefulness .

jiresell

Be sure to enjoy the lake here!

Christian Alvarez

The Lakeside view is absolutely stunning. I strongly recommend bringing plenty of sunscreen , and bug repellent . Don't forget sunglasses!

Kathy Richey

Don't ride the trails on a hybrid, really had idea with all the roots.

Karen

I love eating lunch here :-) its a great break from work

Wade Stinson

Great place to go sailing and canoeing ! The bad thing is that if they see you swimming , you can get banned from the park . You also can't take fish out of the park because they might give you "cancer".

Jerry M

Scenic and peaceful .

Please think of others when you park your car, taking two spots is rude.
