I'm not trying to say that this is the best park I've ever been to, but I am trying to say it's the best park in Charlotte. I hate when parks are completely devoted to sports fields and parking lots. I enjoy freedom park because, if necessary, I can park there, and also play just about any sport there. However, the aspect that really makes this park great is the fact that you can promenade about while taking in the sights. I guess I wish it was a little bit larger or had more areas to explore, but it is a really premier park. The fact that it is connected to the Little Sugar Creek Greenway only makes it better. Some might dislike how busy it can be at times, but that is exactly the reason this park is interesting. I've been to ten's of parks in the area and most of them are totally deserted and lifeless.
Freedom park is a must visit for anyone looking to unwind or get some exercise in Charlotte.
