Inside, when it re-reopens, there is a gym with a hardwood floor, kitchens, meeting rooms, classrooms, and game rooms. Outside, the park features a large playground area, covered picnic shelters, walking path and a pickleball court. Of course, the playground is roped off but the rest of the park area is accessible. There is parking. [Review 13196 overall, 513 of 2020.]

I've been taking my kids to Clarks Creek since it opened. While this park does have some pluses…read morethere are minuses. The bathrooms are almost always nasty, they either don't have toilet paper or don't have paper towels to dry your hands. If it's the summer time and you're taking your kids for the splash pad, bring water shoes. The floors are disgusting. The trashes get overflown and the flies are everywhere. I don't know who thought it was a great idea to have metal slides with no shade but if it's a peak summer day, you're not gonna want your kids going down those slides, especially if they've got shorts on, their butts will get fried. Also, not sure whose idea it was to have the wooden rocking toy thing for kids because those did not last long. The handles broke after a year. When it comes to usable things for kids to play on at this park, the options are extremely limited. I would've loved to see something that kids could actually climb on and slide from that wasn't meant to be poor installation art. The main thing our kids do when we're there is swing on the only two swings climb up in the big web net thing and roll down the turf hill. The only well-kept areas in this park are the Pickleball courts and the dog park. There's definitely ample parking. There's a community garden that you can look at. If you come at the right time when the figs are ripe, you can pick them right off the tree so that's nice.

There are a few playgrounds, bathrooms, a covered shelter for picnics, a pretty gazebo, ball field, disc golf and walking trails. I like to come here in the morning when it's not too cold out to get an outside workout in when I want to switch things up, rather than going to the gym and walking on the treadmill. The walking trails at Creekside Park are fantastic; lots of greenery or autumn foliage depending on the season. There's great lighting and usually a number of maintenance men on the property during the morning hours, so I always feel safe walking here. It's also a great place for shooting photography or a photo shoot if you are planning on having pictures taken.

I have a love-hate relationship with the PRP Tennis Courts. On one hand, they are great and I am…read moreglad the city has them, but on the other hand, trying to get a court here can get a little dicey. Probably due to the shortage of courts the city already has, this place is great, but can get super busy. USTA leagues and tennis ladders reserve certain courts too, so it only leaves the four bottom courts open for free-play. We had a make-up USTA doubles match here a while ago and we had reserved the court, but it appears that people really stick to the printed schedule (I assume once a week), but thank goodness for my smart phone - I was able to pull up the reservation confirmation and the guys finally got off the court we rightfully reserved in the first place. They were nice about it, but super shady at the same time (they thought they could work the system - which totally sucks, but I guess it happens). Aside from the busy schedule, there are bathroom facilities here and lights for the courts. I wish I had the luxury of not having a day job so that I don't have to fight everyone and their brother to get a court, but that's just the way it is...

In Chapel Hill, "The Farm" refers to the private club of the UNC Faculty-Staff Recreation…read moreAssociation. It's kind of like a country club, but without a golf course. There are tennis courts, pickleball courts, swimming and diving pools, outdoor rock climbing walls, a gym, an outdoor basketball court, disc golf, beach volleyball, a clubhouse, playground, three shelters (pavilions) with wooden tables and benches, and more. Actually, it's more like a private park than a private country club. In terms of how nice The Farm is, I'd say it's on a public park level. When I saw The Farm is private, I was thinking it would be nicer and perhaps higher-end. Instead, it felt more like a small city park that happens to be private. My wife has been here multiple times for various UNC events. I attended one of the events with her. It took place at The Farm's clubhouse, the adjacent pavilion, and the playground. It was a family-friendly event. Parents brought their children who played on the playground. Food and drink were set up inside the clubhouse's kitchen. The clubhouse and overall grounds and facilities that I saw were modest. The shelter had string lighting lining the ceiling. The tables had a lot of what looked like dried-up paint/finger paint on them, presumably from kids' activities. It makes sense since the playground was right next to us. Also nearby was a bunch of bamboo which made for a good backdrop for group photos. During our Saturday afternoon visit, I saw people playing beach volleyball and the pool(s) looked busy. The Farm is located east of UNC campus, not far from the Chapel Hill-Durham border. It's off 54, accessible via Barbee Chapel Rd, just past UNC Finley Golf Course. It's due south from the Rizzo Center (south side of 54).
