My mom wanted to check out a park while we were in Greensboro visiting. My brother found this…read morereally quiet park in the area. It was absolutely gorgeous. We loved all the colorful flowers and little creeks the park had to offer. It worked out well too that they have a lot of seating benches to sit on and rest my knee too. The park was built in the early 1900s and they have maintained it pretty well. There are some beautiful homes nearby to it and churches. It was nice to see during Easter Sunday the amount of families that were walking to services or leaving and walking through here. It is definitely a hidden gem to check out!

When I decided to buy a house, it's location left me in the dark…read more Would it be College Hill where the students live or the wealthy in Irving Park? My college days have long been gone and wealthy I've never been And tho Dunleath Historical is where I bought, it's Fisher Park I dreamed of living in. For years and years at 7:00 a.m. I've donned my coat and hat and had my walk through Fisher Park, cuz baby that's where it's at!! The park is lush and evergreen with trails so easy to explore. And if you want to sit and rest, there are benches and rocks galore The park feels untouched and natural even though it's groomed by a neighborhood team. It's the place I go to not only walk but to meditate and dream. It's mini bridges made of stone are so beautiful to behold. I run my fingers through the stream. The water is clean and crisp but cold! There's a playground there with slide and swing for the kiddies to have a blast. There are majestic trees and historic homes to remind us of our past It's users are an interesting bunch. You never know what you will see. It might be a photographer shooting a wedding or a dog taking a pee! Just a few minutes walk from the downtown scene. This park is a gem to behold. I hope that God is good to me and I can come here even when I'm old. So next time when you need an escape and long for the sound of a lark, grab a cup of coffee, sit on a bridge and fall in love with Fisher Park!

Tony Vanoy & I went for a 1.5 hr hike at Guilford Co Courthouse National Military Park in…read moreGreensboro NC on Saturday. It was a beautiful day so we went for a lovely walk to look at the monuments and flowers. We saw some wildlife and many dogs on leashes!! The park was free to enjoy! There was plenty of parking spots and restrooms. Inside the Visitors Center is a museum, some hands on display items to touch, a gift shop and 2 separate films to enjoy. A 10 min one and a 30 minute one to enjoy for free as well... Highly recommend visiting the park if you are in the area!!

I stopped at this park for the Jr Ranger Program. It looked well up-kept on the grounds. I liked…read morethat they offer this program for the children. I do wish there was a way to double press some of the exhibits inside, to be able to disable them. The speakers are quiet loud, and our little of course wanted to press the buttons, even after we moved on from that section. Then she complained about the loud noise of the speakers. It was fun learning about the parks history, doing the activities inside, and walking the grounds to see the grave sites, statues, and go hunting for wildlife scavenger hunt. The ranger that was on-site was very friendly and patient with our little when she interviewed him for one of the activities in the booklet and when presenting her with her badge. As we were leaving the ranger let us know about some other opportunities for guest to earn different badges at the park. We will have to try next time we are in town.

Reasons to love the Triad? 75 degrees on December 3rd?! Yes please! And another lovely park we came…read moreto for the first time to enjoy the afternoon! Amazing to think we've been here for almost 3 years now and still haven't been to all the parks even in the very near vicinity! This park is located about a quarter mile down and across the street from Joanie Moser, and it's got a rather large, clean playground area, paved walking path, and a steep slope perfect for sledding! There were kids sledding down even with no sign of snow to come! Impressive, and I can't wait for the next nice day to come back!

Hey, what do ya know!? Another beautiful park in the Triad! This one is closely located to main…read moreroads, but removed enough to enjoy the nature while wrangling your kids along! This park has a walking trail that is paved and stroller friendly, and a couple of playgrounds intersect this on either side. Looks like one playground also contains a splash pad, but this was closed off when we went. Not sure if because it was still early in the season or if it's still shut down due to the pandemic. On the other side of the parking lot is a unique outside gym area with several pieces of equipment. Elliptical, stepper, pull-up bars, resistance trainers, and signage accompanying with instructions. This is under a canopy and looks well maintained. Adjacent to this is also a court area for playing horseshoes and pétanque. They also host a friendly and free pétanque league here! I had to look up what pétanque was, and seems like it's very similar to bocce ball. I might join up this summer! They gather on Sunday afternoons.

An under utilized gem. Visited this great park a few times now, different days of the week and…read moretimes and there is rarely more than a handful of people each time. This well maintained facility with public restrooms, and a large covered pavillion also has RC tracks and an airstrip, a dirt course for bmx, and what appears to be a gravity race track. Hence the Hobby Park name. There is loads of parking on the property and access to all the tracks as well as a large open wooded area with trails. We come here to walk and enjoy the open space. Theres a group of RC airplabe folks that I've seen using the airstrip and only a few folks running model cars, otherwise the place is pretty empty. Not sure if the park hosts events but on all of my visits there has never been more than a handful of people. 4.5 Stars a really unique park that appears to be under utilized and definitely worth the time to visit 01168

Muddy Creek Greenway Park is an approximately three-mile 10 foot wide paved, tree-lined trail that…read moreruns between Robinhood Road and Country Club Road. Frequented by walkers, runners, bicyclists, rollerbladers, and dog lovers, the trail also boasts fenced-off fields where you can sometimes see horses, and if it's the right time of day, you might see a number of deer lazily eating. I enjoy all these features whenever I am on the trail. Another one of the features that I enjoy and think is a great feature is easy access. Multiple feeder paths along the Greenway allow a greater number of residents who live close to the trail to enjoy its relaxing atmosphere and place to exercise. At the trail's two endpoints, adequate parking is available. Additional notes: -The dog-friendly nature is backed up by locations with baggies and waste receptacles. -On the safety side: The trail is not lit up at night and is very dark.

They occasionally put on outdoor events, such as concerts and movie nights, which are always nice and often have food trucks. Really do miss the amazing 4th of July fireworks they use to put on.

Bottom line: Shallowford Square is a pretty nice park provided by the Town of Lewisville for…read moreoutdoor performances and activities as well as a playground for kids available. It is a well maintained resource for everyone to use, but that is not extended to pets where signage does note that no pets allowed. The Deets: I had a chance to walk around and enjoy the Shallowford Square park with my mother on Mother's Day. It's a good resource in the middle of Lewisville, across the street from Lewisville Town Hall on Shallowford Road. It is available for outdoor events and it looks well maintained, clean, and neat. The general layout looking like an amphitheater where people can bring their lawn furniture and/or blankets, etc. to see movies and performances shown outdoors, music/concerts and other outdoor entertainment. There is a pavilion in the park and looks like it can be rented through the Town of Lewisville. Alcohol is generally prohibited within the park ("only allowed at events being held with prior written approval by the Town of Lewisville" per the website at this time). The Lewisville Veterans Memorial is within Shallowford Square also. A nice playground is located in the back of this park for kids to use. There are also great celebrations/events held here as well such as the Street Party & Food Truck Festival and also the Christmas Tree Lighting with Santa for example. I do note many signs/painted instructions saying there are no pets allowed in Shallowford Square and it's a bit disappointing. I realize that there are a good number of people out and about that do not clean up after their pets but I remain disappointed that pets that do have responsible owners cannot enjoy this nice open space, so that is my only star off for here. Overall, I find Shallowford Square a nice place to visit in the Town of Lewisville.
