    This is one of our favorite playgrounds. Located in Dunwoody it's a smaller playground but great. Has a rubber surface and shade awnings perfect for hot summer days. Playground has 4 swings (2 baby & 2 regular) many levels of slides, climbing bars, twisting stools, climbing net and much more. It also has a fence that encloses the playground perfect for runners. Bathroom on site; Men's, Women's, & Family. Nice green space by playground perfect for picnics and other play. Location of a little shared library as well. Walking trail around neighborhood is great for strollers.

Just off of the parking lot you will find an outdoor workout area. There is some really nice equipment out there including dip bars, pull-up bars and balance boards. The park is situated just off of a paved bike/jogging/dog walking trail, the Dunwoody Trailway. There is a dog clean up station at the trail's entrance. You will find a couple of nice shelters at this park. One small and the other mid-sized, and both with picnic tables under them. They are not available for rent. They are first come, first served. The park features a fenced in splash pad with water that shoots up from spouts in the ground. It does not have any above ground water features, but is still nice and refreshing on one of those hot GA days. It is button activated and runs for 30-minutes. This splash pad is touted as being the city's first. Additionally, the park has a nice bathroom facility. The park's playground is on the mud free rubbery surface and has some modern, new equipment. There are percussion instruments, a fake log, a saucer swing, a friendship swing and toddler swings, a large jungle gym with monkey bars, slides, ladders, bridges, and canopies. There is a smaller jungle gym for little kids. That apparatus has a small slide, tunnels, and other fun stuff. This is a newer park, opening in 2023. At 5-acres, it is kind of small. I still like it though. It may not be a destination park, but still worth a visit if you are in the area.

    We played the disc golf course at Brook Run Park while our daughter was in a nearby class, and…read moreoverall we had a good time. The layout is fun and the park itself is beautiful, especially in the winter when the leaves are thin and you can actually see the baskets through the trees. That said, the course could really benefit from clearer signage. Several pads weren't well marked, and we even had to skip a hole because we couldn't figure out where it started or ended. Since we only had time to play about half the course, we found ourselves spending more minutes navigating than throwing. I can't imagine how tough it must be in the summer when everything is fully leafed out -- it's probably like searching for a needle in a haystack. Still, it's a solid course in a great park, and with better markings it could easily be a five‑star experience.

I had no idea this was an annual thing and am happy that the city of Dunwoody does this and am definitely looking forward to next year's lights. While there were a ton of people, there was plenty of parking and I appreciated that there was an officer there to keep the flow of cars moving along. The park itself had several playgrounds and I loved they were padded. The kids had a blast on slides, swings and running around in the wide open space. The bathrooms were clean which always makes things even better. The kids had a blast playing with all the other kids and this is definitely a playground I'd come back to visit.

The park…read moreoffers a peaceful escape with beautiful river views and plenty of opportunities to enjoy nature. Our hike was both fun and refreshing, and it gave us a glimpse of just how much this park has to offer. One of the highlights was discovering the variety of trails--each one winding through different landscapes and offering unique perspectives of the river and surrounding forest. That said, we've only scratched the surface. With so many trails still left to explore, it feels like we've only had a taste of the adventure waiting here. We also had the chance to tour the lodge, which was a fascinating stop. It shared the history of the site in an engaging way and offered interactive exhibits that were perfect for kids. It added an extra layer of fun and learning to our visit, making the experience even more memorable. Overall, it's a fantastic spot for hiking, family outings, and reconnecting with nature. We're already looking forward to coming back and experiencing more of the trails and activities we didn't get to this time.

Dog friendly and great for hiking alone or in a group, I highly recommend visiting the park in the evening. Trail #1 goes under Highway 400, so does get a bit noisy. Trail #2 goes through the Hewlett Lodge Visitor Center and is a good spot to picnic and take breaks. Each trail is about 3 miles to & fro and take roughly an hour or so each to complete them. There are no restrooms in the Island Ford Unit entrance so plan accordingly if you enter from that entrance. Parking is $5/day or free with the Annual pass or America the beautiful pass. Amenities: Wheelchair accessible entrance and parking, pet waste stations & picnic tables

    Park at Pernoshal Court is a well maintained park in Dunwoody. The parking lot isn't that big, so…read morefinding parking in the lot may be a challenge. Street parking is available. It looks like this park is more focused on being sports-related, with a full basketball court, two half basketball courts and a pickle ball court. If there is a line to play basketball, there are benches for players to sit on while they're waiting. To one side of the courts is a big green space. To the other side of the courts is a big pavilion, providing a nice shaded area that has many picnic tables. I think there are restrooms on the backside of the pavilion. The pavilion can be reserved through the City of Dunwoody, and there is a fee to reserve it. If there isn't a reservation for the pavilion, it's first come, first served. On the other side of the pavilion are bbq grills, another big green space, and a big terraced seating area. The Dunwoody Trailway, a nice and wide concrete pathway which is great for running, bicycling, skating, pushing strollers, etc., goes through the backside of the 5 acre park, and provides a convenient way to get to Georgetown Park in one direction and Brook Run Park in the other direction. Also towards the rear of the park are stationary exercise equipment. Besides the limited parking lot spaces, other drawbacks to this park are that there isn't that much shade (other than under the pavilion) and there isn't any playground equipment for children. Like I stated at the beginning of my review, this is a well maintained park! Because of the new appearance that the City of Dunwoody maintains, I thought this was a relatively new park, but it's actually about five years old. The parking lot pavement looks new, the sports courts look new, and the pavilion and picnic benches look relatively new. I'm glad that visitors to this park, and, obviously, the City of Dunwoody take pride in this park!

    This is a great park. Clean courts, clean bathrooms, clean picnic tables, clean everything. I come…read morehere often for walks, exercise, and just to relax and get some sun. It connect to Brook Run Park so that helps me get my steps in for the day.

The park is actually two sections, separated by a lake. The park is a nature park has has many picnic tables and shelters, with picnic tables under them scattered on both sides of the park. Some of the picnic tables and shelters are located along the river and provide some panoramic views. The park also features a nice nature trail that is in the wood and pretty well shaded. On one side of the park you will find a small, but newer playground area with percussion instruments, saucer swings, and a couple of slides. It is pretty basic. The other side has a much larger playground. It has a huge play structure that looks like a fort and has a rock climbing wall, slides, and bridges. There is also a pyramid net climber, saucer swings, and toddler swings. The equipment is pretty spread out and in pretty good shape. There is a smaller play structure for little ones which has tunnels, slides, and bridges. You will find rocking animals in that area as well. This side of the park also has a restroom facility. This park is certified as a wildlife habitat and you will see water fowl, geese, beavers and squirrels up close and personal to name just a few animals. Someone was fishing while I was there, but I do not know how good the fishing is, or even if it is allowed. I do not know if it is part of the park, but across the street you will find a huge and amazing baseball complex that looks like it is home to a junior college. It is nice and very well maintained. All in all, this park is decent. It is well maintained and the lake and views are awesome . I will admit that There is not much to offer outside of the trails, shelter, lake, and picnic tables. I like the park, but I was not wow'ed or overwhelmed. The playgrounds are somewhat basic and probably would not holds a kids attention too long. This park would be great for those looking for a nature park.
