    One problem with this park - the few benches are placed right behind large equipment so it's hard to see the whole playground at a glance (and keep an eye on the kids easily).

    Great park. Lovely playground at the entrance, a fishing pond with geese, a covered pavilion with grills, and access to the Greenway. Lots of stuff to do.

    They've made some major improvements to this park. All new playground, bathrooms, a greenway and 12 hold disk gold course. They have a couple of pavilions great for cookouts and kids birthday parties.

    Don't tell anyone about this place ... best park in the Charlotte area. Beautiful Greenway's, pond w/ dock, and fantastic play area for kids.

    Matthews best kept secret. I walked a little over a mile from the main entrance to get there. Nice fountain and deck to fish on. Awesome play equipment.

    Another problem - the big kids' slides and monkey bars are incredibly high. Kind of scarily high even. Otherwise, great playground!
