This park contains wonderful play equipment (swings, obstacle courses, etc...) for the children. On the other side is a very nice large gazebo area that has lots of table benches complete with three built in charcoal grills for groups, families, and individuals to have picnics or BBQs on/at. Also, there is a nice little wooden seating area just a little bit aways from the BBQ/picnic area. You can also walk a little further down from that area and go onto a little wooden secured platform the hangs just right over the Chattahoochee Lake to see the lake and all it's beauty. There is also a wonderful nature trail that you can walk on with or without a pooch companion to see the beautiful wooded area and all of the beautiful trees there. I absolutely love this park. I cannot comment on the bathroom that they have on and right next to their parking lot as I have never been inside of it. The parking lot is not large, but is pretty decent. I do recommend this park as it is worth going to, visiting, and seeing.

This park is by far my favorite in Gwinnett County because of the mixed use paved versus non-paved pathways, well-maintained, and overall cozy vibes. Like an outdoor museum. Even the restrooms are the best that I've seen in local parks. The location is very conveniently located with a Duluth entrance and Suwanee entrance. Plenty of parking. Even a public garden. Busiest times are after 11am on weekdays and after 10am on weekends. The best entrance is on the Duluth side off of Old Norcross Road. Great for taking a morning walk and then visiting the local cafes afterwards.

The park itself had ample parking spaces. And the facilities there were clean and well maintained. There were various trails that's away from the main paved path. These side trails were nicely shaded and eventually leads back on the main path. The historic farm structures like the main house, farmhouse, side house and its outhouse are still erect. That's the charm of this place with the well groomed flower garden that someone upkeeps. The old and new altogether. As you wander the park, you forget you're in the heart of Duluth where shopping and restaurants galore await you. Because while you're talking around (and trying not to sweat to death during the summer), you'll hear the summer insects buzzing. It literally reminded me of my childhood during the summers hearing the loud insects buzz away.

I read some of the info posted along the paths near the fountains and learned that Roswell actually used to be part of Cobb County. I had no idea and found that really interesting having just moved here to Georgia earlier in the year. They had some other facts about the area and history on that part of the river too. What was great about this park was that it was pretty dead on a weekday morning. A lot of other parks are usually busy at this time, since we are still going thru the pandemic of course. I think we only saw one other person on the trail (with plenty of room to distance) and one other person parked in a car off to the side of the trail. We enjoyed the seclusion. I liked everything about the park - the gazebo and fountain area, the view of the river down the trail, the historical value, etc. Just a nice place to exercise or go to relax. I hope to be back soon.

What a gem in the middle of Peachtree Corners!…read more Lately, our family has been spending more time outside and seeking out spots that are not packed full of people. I am so grateful that we found Simpsonwood Park, a wonderful space to enjoy nature close to home. The first few times we visited Simpsonwood, we parked ourselves in the large grassy area for picnics. We found a shady spot near the edge of the woods. We saw several families playing frisbee and other sports, but there was plenty of space for all of us. We really started having fun once we hiked the trail around the park. We walked a path of about two and a half miles. We took our time and looked around - probably took us about an hour. At times, the trail was a touch unclear, and I referenced the All Trails app to help make sure we were on course. There is a stream, lots of trees, wildlife, and the river. We saw lots of deer throughout the hike and made a point to keep our distance. The hike was relatively mild, but was narrow in some places, with definite uneven footing throughout. This hike definitely scratched the itch to be in the woods without driving to North Georgia. Look for "minis" while you hike (see pics)! Please note that every time we have visited, we have seen numerous dogs off leash. It is my understanding that it is not an off leash park, but we ran into many dogs that were not leashed. One even joined our picnic one day, minutes before an owner appeared. So if you do not wish to be in the presence of dogs or if you have dogs that are offended by the presence of other dogs, this may not be the spot. All of our encounters have been with friendly dogs. We have never had trouble finding a parking space, but I wouldn't say spaces are unlimited. There are park restrooms available near the parking lot. This park is a great opportunity to spend some time soaking up sunshine and stretching one's legs. Enjoy!

We ended up hiking about 6 miles in nice shaded area on the trails. Some rocks and roots, so you must be careful. Relatively flat with a few small hills. The big downside is there are no trail markers or signs, so having a person in your group that is familiar with the area is necessary. We had two people that knew the trails, so zero markings was not a problem for us. Great outdoor area. Currently (4/23) there is construction of new water treatment plant along the river. Not many people here, so is sort of a hidden gem. Every one in our group enjoyed the hike. Lots of free parking. Restrooms available, but they were so-so inside. Definitely worth a stop. Also CRNRA Jones Bridge unit is across the river for additional hiking trails and is very well marked for easier navigation.
