I had my first horseback riding experience here, and it was honestly better than I expected…read more I rode a horse named Preacher, and he was such a good boy. Super calm, gentle, and perfect if you're nervous or brand new to riding. I'd definitely recommend him for first-timers. My husband rode Kahlua. She was funny and entertaining; trying to eat everything that came across her path. Lol The guides were upbeat, informative, and kept everything running smoothly, which made me feel a lot more comfortable. You can tell they know what they're doing. All of the staff were friendly, patient, and really knowledgeable, which made the whole experience even better. I had a great time and can't wait to come back again!

Love this place for my family!!! Horse rides, camps, all kinds of fun for the family!read more

North Raleigh Arts & Creative Theatre, otherwise known as NRACT, is located in the Greystone…read moreShopping Center in North Raleigh, located off of Lead Mine Rd. The shopping center is anchored by a Food Lion, so there is usually plenty of parking. It is to the right of Two Roosters Ice Cream and to the left of Greystone Recreation Center. The non-profit community theatre opened in 2002. I'm not sure exactly when I found this gem, but boy, has it changed since I started attending shows here. Seating was once all floor seats and has taken on many transformations since then. It currently has 8 rows of 12 seats, with row A being floor level and B-H as stadium seating, with an aisle in the middle. It has always been an intimate theatre, and you are never far from the stage. Besides the seating, professional-grade updates were made to both the lighting and technical side of things because of Liz Droessler. Ticket prices are reasonable, and there are reduced rates for educators, seniors and veterans. Seats are assigned, and the website makes it easy to select the seat you wish to sit in. Some of the seats are accessible. Tim Locklear became the managing artistic director in 2014. He welcomed me as well as those I introduced to this theatre. He strove to create an inclusive community and brought shows to venues I hadn't always heard of. He wasn't afraid to tackle the hot-topic shows and brought these issues to the forefront. These shows tackled alzheimer's, mental illness, PTSD, eugenics, abortion, race relations, and LGBTQ+ stories. Some of these shows were uncomfortable to watch, but the stories needed to be heard, and I left with a much better perspective. In 2022, NRACT won the NCTC Community Theatre Award for belonging, inclusion, and diversity. Tim retired in September 2025 but is still directing shows, most recently Boys in the Band. It is playing for a few more weeks if you want to see a deep show. The performances here are always high quality, from the talented performers to the sets and costumes. They've had Parade; Don't Bother Me, I can't Cope, Dot: Grown-Ups; Church and State; Next to Normal, Calendar Girls; Dogfight; Equus; Roe; Always Patsy Cline and Young Frankenstein are a few. If you want a story that stays with you, NRACT is where to go for meaningful theatre. It's the kind of place where you aren't just an anonymous seat number but a valued part of a community. Lormarev Jones recently took the helm as Managing Director, with Jess Barbour as Artistic Director, so I am excited to see what their energy brings to NRACT.

I grew up at this theatre and have watched it go from great to excellent. This hidden gem is…read morelocated in an inconspicuous place but that doesn't stop them from bringing in full houses. They produce a diverse array of polished and high energy productions. Very Strong sense of community with creative outlets for kids and teens as well. Check out their next production, you won't be disappointed!

Had a wonderful time at the goat yoga class! Amanda the host was amazing and so sweetread more

23 goats 2 sheep and 3 dogs. So cool!…read moreThe goats are so nice and love cuddles. I didn't do much Yoga but did get plenty of hugs and goat kisses. The goats, sheep and dogs are super well trained- they don't climb on you- they ly next to you or stand in front/behind you. If you have blonde or bright colored hair- the goats are attracted to it. The ladies that run the farm are really nice and informative- they tell you the names of all the animals- so you know who you are sitting with.

4 stars feels right. I've been to 3 YMCAs in my life thus far and this one has what you need!…read more Older Adult Programming classes (THRIVE), Summer Camps, Water Aerobics, Group Fitness and more. Couple unique features: - Bottom floor walking track that goes around the gym - Flavia Station (free coffee/tea) Problem areas: - Incline bench needs to be replaced (it's angled oddly and one of the worst I've used) - The pulley machine near the punching bag has some issues with the pulley catching - No decline bench here This YMCA feels fairly old but I'm a fan of how every YMCA is uniquely built. There's ample parking but peak times will have you walking.

We were nervous leaving our daycare of 4 years, but having dedicated teachers instead of staff with a high turnover has made a huge difference. They've taken the time to work 1:1 with him on several things we've been concerned about, and the growth we've seen has been incredible. The school also hosts great community events, and everyone has been so warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!

They both show up everyday smiling, caring and eager to interact with all the kids. Outside of the immediate teachers, the entire school has created such a positive change in our daughter's life - each day includes a special course and all 5 of those teachers offer something interactive and engaging (STEM, Art, Music, PE and Spanish). The faculty is very organized, efficient and friendly. Everyone works as a team to get the kids in and out of school safely. The atmosphere at Chesterbrook is really that of a family unit. We've been so happy with our choice to enroll here :)
