Surprised I haven't reviewed this park yet. We have been exercising here for several years. The…read morepark is clean and well marked. It has ample walkways mostly flat with some intense hills. It used to be a golf course converted to a public park. Previously it included a large area across Hilltop Needmore Rd, which now houses a new community center. Overall lovely place for family walk.

My dog and I like to walk the trails at this park. There are (3) trails; I consider the red trail…read moreto be the hardest because it has the most hills (it's a little over 2 miles), so your legs really feel the burn, the yellow trail (also a little over 2 miles) is an average hike, and the blue trail (0.6 miles) is easy breezy. This park is very scenic and it used to be a golf course. It's surrounded by large homes, and you can peek at everyone's backyard and sometimes that's awkward. Lol. My biggest complaint is that the trails need to be wider. It's impossible to social distance and when someone is walking in the opposite direction, someone ends up in the grass (usually me). I appreciate all of the doggie poop bag stations, and there are several bathrooms located off the trails. I give this park 3.5 stars, but I'm rounding up because I'm generous.

TLDR: Peaceful lake in Holly Springs. Check out the retreat center (they have animals!). Relax in a…read morerocking chair on the deck and listen to the flowing water and birds. Note that you cannot fish off the deck. Why have I not visited this lake before?? I have passed by it several times and decided to stop and enjoy my breakfast here on a gloomy morning. The lake has benches on the grass near the shore, ample parking, trash cans, lost and found, restrooms, water fountains, dog waste stations, posted rules, weight scale, and marked trails. The retreat center has a large, clean deck with picnic tables and umbrellas. The deck provides a beautiful view of the lake and plenty of bird sounds (mainly from the geese). Inside they have resources and reptiles. Excellent area in Holly Springs to learn, exercise, fish, and appreciate nature.

Enjoyed a walk around the lake after breakfast. Beautiful walking trail and a nice dock area with…read morerocking chairs overlooking the lake. The trail is unpaved with lots of trees, perfect for walking and running.

Boyfriend and I stopped at the Fuquay Mineral Spring Park today so he could teach me about the…read morehistory behind it and to go on a short stroll before heading home. History: a local farmer discovered the spring which had high mineral content so the people believed it had healing properties and the town grew around the springs to accommodate the tourists and that is how Fuquay-Varina was formed! So, make sure you drink from the spring when you visit.. just kidding. Overall, even though this park is smaller, it is a beautiful park to stop and have a picnic, walk your dog or to lay out on a blanket and relax.

I found this park by accident and it was a really nice surprise. I was going for a walk and…read morestumbled upon this park that only had three cars in it, I didn't pass a single person on any of the trails. I really like parks that are not that crowded. There's plenty of parking and a bathroom available, the bathrooms are currently closed due to COVID-19 precautions. There is a trail map that shows the various trails, trails are loops and straight trails, they lead past shelters and a lot of water features, in the woods and a couple come out into pastures. This park is nestled between two roads however you barely hear cars. This is a great place to walk dogs or go for a trail run there is some elevation change if you want a little more of a challenge however the trails are mainly flat and not many rocks. This is not handicap accessible. There are also many bridges and this trail system leads into another local park so you can keep walking walking walking all day long.

I'm not one to ever rate a nature spot badly but I will add one reservation. The walking trails are very tough on the legs. Once free from the entrances, there isn't ten feet of level space walking space. It's an incline/decline roller-coaster chock full of outgrown roots. Your knees have to be in top shape, and you cannot take your eyes off the ground for fear of tripping over roots. Every trail is different. Lake Johnson is almost all wide pavement. Hemlock Bluffs is almost all mulch/dirt. Those are very easy, well-maintained places to walk, by comparison. This set of trails isn't so simple. It's an up/down affair where you must keep your eyes open at all times. All that said, it's got some very scenic spots and it's a great place to take your dog. We enjoy going there often. A.

I revisited for the first time since then with my 1 year old son today to soak in the warm weather. The playground isn't huge but it's nice, with fairly new equipment and a little something for all ages. They have a couple of toddler swings (as in 2), a couple of "big kid" swings (also, just 2), and a good-sized playground with several slides (including a nice, tall one for the big kids!) They also have a bunch of picnic tables under a large, covered shelter, a soccer field, and tennis courts. Oh, and there are bleachers next to the playground (for the soccer field, I'm assuming) so there's plenty of room to hang out/eat lunch while the kiddos are playing!

It's an artificial turf field, which can be tough on the skin when it comes to sliding, but it's a pretty nice field. It's well-marked and has soccer and lacrosse goals for use. The disc golf course is pretty fun as well - the majority of it is wooded, but there are a few more open holes as well. It's decently marked, so it's not too confusing to follow. Parking usually isn't an issue, but since it is right next to the high school, trying to find your way around can be a bit confusing.
