There is a access to the lake for boaters and fishing as well and plenty of tables for those interested in picnicking.\n\nThis is one of my favorite parks in Charlotte, not only because of the trails but because it is also home to the Carolina Raptor Center and the Historic Latta Plantation. Those i have/will review separately. \n\nThe park is easy to get to from I-77 and I-485 so there's no excuse not to check it out if you're in the area and have the time!"^^ . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ . .
