The nature center and the small science building on premises are both free of charge to the public. There's even an outdoor park for small kids with slides and on nice day take a picnic and hang out there after seeing the sights. In nature center there's lots of live animals to see. The have a program with alligator adventure in myrtle beach where they get to bring baby alligators in for the alligator pool they have inside. Lots of different snakes on display. There's a downstairs cavelike exhibit in that building with all kinds of turtles too. Then travel over to tall science building. That ones more geared to small children but has display of heart and lungs to climb thru. The upstairs has all kinds of things too. There's even a small gift store there. For $1 you can ride a small train around too which peaked the kids interest. They had fun riding but geared more for smaller kids. For a nice day out and great price ($0) it's an awesome way spend time with kids without killing your wallet. These days that's a rare find.

There is a playground area on the other side of the park. Apparently parents at the park don't want some rando guy with no kids playing on the playground equipment. At least that is what the police officer told me. I think the kids were just pissed because I was wining at "king of the mountain". Park is located in downtown and is next to the Neuse river. Parking is free in the area. It's a nice little park and I give it a solid 4 stars.

There isn't much shade (I guess you wouldn't want leaves falling into the pool) but that will make it super hot on a summer day. There is a tennis court but it needs resurfacing and some equipment because right now it looks like a very strange parking lot. The only decent thing here is the picnic shelter which does have a grill nearby but there is only one table in the shelter and one of them dragged out of the shelter. What?
