East Durham Park

Address: 2500 E Main St, Durham, NC 27703, USA

Park

“This is a relatively nice sized play structure. On the 5-12 age play structure there’s only one small slide. The rest of the structure is mostly upper body. There are two different types of monkey bars, some rope courses, and various other climbing structures. The 2-5 age play structure has 3 slides and a steering wheel on it. There are 4 big kid swings and 1 little kid swing with room for another. The flooring under the bigger structure has some bounce and the rest is mostly wood chucks. There are benches, two picnic tables and a picnic shelter with seating under it. There’s also a small open grass area. There is no restroom and parking is on the street which is limited. There was also a good bit of trash from people just not picking up after themselves.”

MST Cheek Rd. Trailhead

Address: 6112-6512 Cheek Rd, Durham, NC 27704, USA

Park

“A wonderful trail experience! About a 1 mile hike to Hereford Rd. A lil squishy considering the recent rain, but there are some great views of Falls Lake and plenty of large birds fishing it's waters.”

Sandy Creek Park

Address: 3510 Sandy Creek Dr, Durham, NC 27707, USA

Park

“I love this park! It’s small yet comforting. Almost like a “Secret Garden”. This is a hidden gem right off the highway in Durham. There is limited parking but a very nice area to walk around. You can hear the traffic while strolling so I just pretended it was water. Then I actually came across a little creek. Ran into a family of Canadian Geese with their five chicks! Saw ducks and turtles and lots of butterflies. The air was sweet from honeysuckle and wild irises. It just felt magical walking the back trails where the grass seemed 5 feet tall. Ate a picnic lunch, had a very good afternoon.”

Rolling View Campground Loop C

Address: 4201 Baptist Rd, Durham, NC 27703, USA

Campground Lodging Park

“Well maintained campground with lots of nice space around the site. Went in April during "pollen festival" so that added an extra dimension to the overnight stay for sure (see photo of pollen drifting through flashlight beam). RV people are loud, so don't get a tent spot too close to Loop B. Also, planes fly low overhead at night, so if you wake up thinking they're about to land on your tent, don't worry. The boat ramp and swim areas are not accessible before 8 am, so you can't go out to the peninsula for sunrise.”

Rockwood Park

Address: 2310 Whitley Dr, Durham, NC 27707, USA

Park

“Tucked away, quiet, has a playground and a shelter. Nice space, but grass is sparse in some areas, so it is very muddy post-rain. The parking lot is small, so not ideal for large gatherings. Great for families and pets.”

Forest Hills Park

Park

“I took my 3 year old son to this park and he really enjoyed it. It has a big playground and two swing sets with lots of field space to run, play, and enjoy your family. It was very peaceful. There is even a pavilion space adjacent to the playground.”

Leigh Farm Park

Address: 370 Leigh Farm Rd, Durham, NC 27707, USA

Park

“I mainly visit for the disc golf course. I've played here since about 2008 when it was still pretty rugged and had original holes. The improvements they've made over these last couple years is astounding. They have replaced broken signs, added alt baskets on almost every hole, and the course is once again easy to navigate. I think this course doesn't get as much recognition as it deserves. One of the more challenging advanced courses in the surrounding area, and it's almost never crowded. 2020 update: Getting better! They have reworked some of the teepads and added new ones from when they had to move the holes next to the apartments a few years back. They have done great work. The 'advanced' course has improved navigation and flow. Still one of the best kept secrets in NC.”

Squantum Point Park

Park Gas station

“One of the few dog-friendly beaches in the Boston Proper radius, but instead of sand of the beaches mud and a billion seashells. Not Top Notch barefoot or dog fetch terrain, as both of us came back with cut-up feet. Ample parking, at least during covid-19 they away the pay station so it's free to park. Be prepared for off-leash dogs running up to you.”

Eagle Spur Trail

Address: Eagles Spur Rail-Trail, Durham, NC 27713, USA

Park

“An amazing trail that is off the path and without any traffic noise. It uses the cleared old railway line that ran through the area, so its an easy walk without any real troubles. Sometimes the main walking path in is impassable because of heavy rains or when dams further down the river leading to lake Jordan are opened. This doesn't mean you cannot walk the trail is just means you have to find another way on to it. There are areas around with homes you can park at and take to the trail. All the hassle is well worth it. Its a beautiful trail that is pretty clean, well shaded, and easy to walk with a ending view that makes the 5 miles (round trip) trail 110%% worth it. Not to mention its reportedly the largest summertime roost of bald eagles in the Eastern United States. If you have the time give this trail a try, you won't regret it.”

Cook Road Park

Address: 602 Cook Rd, Durham, NC 27707, USA

Park Lawyer

“Our very first time visiting this particular park for a church outing. The space was nice but, not enough parking accessible. Many of us had to park either at an empty church parking lot or on the grassy entrance. Otherwise, there is an area for fishing, walking trails, a baseball field, and a covered shed. Highly recommend for small family gatherings, cookouts, or even birthday parties.”

Twin Lakes Park

Address: 439 Chandler Rd, Durham, NC 27703, USA

Park

“This is one of my favorite parks in Durham. It has everything in a small area. It has both big and little kid play areas, 2 bucket swings, 4 regular swings, and 3 bouncey toys. It’s pretty shaded and has a wall around it that can be used as seating. It also has a shelter and restrooms within walking distance. There are lakes nearby and a trail. There’s also a soccer field and basketball courts. It is a gravel road though so don’t go if you don’t want your car getting a little dusty.”

“i loved it”

Bethesda Park

Address: 1814 Stage Rd, Durham, NC 27703, USA

Park

“I would give 5 stars but the disc golf course is tight, wooded and its a short course. The rec center looks nice and kept up, it has a basketball ball court and a tennis court both covered. The climbing towers are off limits to non members, which sucks cause they look fun. All in all its a nice facility.”
