Park Road Park

It’s such a good park to take a walk near the pond and relax outside. They have benches to seat. People bring their dogs to walk and also they have a nice playground for kids. Family oriented park with a large parking lot.

It's nice. It's a really big place. We went to the playground that's at this location. My kid loves it. They have somewhat of a "ninja course" here which is what my child is always looking for at a playground whenever possible. There was a restroom here but there is only one stall with one toilet and sink in the women's bathroom and I assume the men's room couldn't be much better. There was also a nice little park with benches to sit on right next to a pond. It was nice. Cool place to take pics of you're in to that sort of thing. It was a relatively large playground too. It was nice. I would go back.

What a gem of a public park. We took my mom there on July 4th for one of her favorite things to do...have a picnic! Since it was a big summer holiday, and uber hot in Charlotte, we got there early. We had the choice of setting up at a picnic table under shade trees or under the covered shelter, both with pretty water views and close proximity to bathrooms. We chose the Shelter since it was easier for my mom to navigate with a walker. Both options are manageable for handicap patrons, with easy access from the car to the picnic areas. There are many oversized charcoal grills, which were in use while we were there. Unfortunately one user disposed of hot charcoal in the metal trashcan, which started smoking after they left. My husband noticed it and doused it with water. Geez, people...don't put hot coals in a trashcan until you are 100% sure they are not a fire hazard! Smoky the Bear is watching. Speaking of trashcans, ours were clean and empty, the bathrooms were spotless, and we saw Parks & Rec patrolling. We will definitely return to this lovely and well-maintained public space. Being here made me proud to be a Charlottean. Highly recommend!

This is wonderful park but the pond is absolutely disgusting as it is polluted from trash that was thrown in by some very low IQ individuals. The pond water seems like a mixture of your bathroom’s waste, garbage, and mud… although the ducks seemed to be having a blast diving and swimming in this sewage.

The perfect place for a picnic. We picked up some food from Nordstrom‘s café and headed out to the nearest park. My husband found this spot. As soon as we pulled in I told my husband we got lucky! The view from our picnic table was unbeatable. Incredible! It was a bit chilly but the sun really helped. We’ll definitely be back and hopefully spend more time and maybe even have a walk. This park is an absolute must!
