Ramsey Creek Park

Beautiful water, but way too many yellow jackets to enjoy ourselves. Would recommend visiting a different time of the year.

You can't have alcohol. They check coolers. And it's not a very big place blocked off for the swimming.

My husband recently ran a 5K here and was excited to show me the park. It was my first time and I was impressed by the cleanliness, plentiful seating and children's playground. This is a nice park to take kids to for something to do. They had signs saying you shouldn't enter the water in certain places, but people seemed to ignore those. Lots of laughs and splashing heard as we walked around. :)They have several restrooms which were pretty clean for the most part also, which was a good thing. Parking is plentiful, but how close you can park depends on how crowded it is. We were initially directed to an overflow lot but just as we got out of the car, some spaces opened up in the main lot so we were able to move. I believe you can also get on a chartered boat here to go on Lake Norman. Nice place, we will return.

We've been going to Ramsey creek for a while and it's pretty good. The walking trails are amazing, and the beach view is terrific, and even has a dog park.

Ramsey Creek Park is a really nice park in the Cornelius area. There are a plethora of things to do at this park. Whether you are a dog owner, have children, like to walk/jog, partake in fitness activities or water activities, Ramsey Creek Park is the way to go! There is literally something for everyone!It is located in Cornelius, off of Nantz Road. Upon entering the park, you will find a variety of parking areas, some closer or further away from the water. Any parking area you choose will be a great walk to whatever activity you want to partake in. With that in view, there is plenty of parking available at just about anytime of the day.There are multiple trails available within the park, some that loop around back to the start, and some that cross over the main road within the park putting you on connected trails on the other side. Some trails are a little bit more rugged, whereas other trails are somewhat paved and not so rugged.There are tons of grilling stations, along with bench/table seating areas, for those that wish to grill out and have a great day. Plenty of restrooms are also available. During the summer, these areas are normally packed with people, enjoying the summer fun! Additionally, Ramsey Creek Park has a boat ramp from which you can leave/return or make a pitstop from another location on the water.Ramsey Creek Park is really a great destination, a hidden gem, in the Cornelius area! If you have an opportunity to visit the park, don't miss out on a variety of activities and fun for the entire family!

We love visiting Ramsey Creek Park. There's a dog park attached to it so it's a great spot to enjoy the lake with your pup!

I've been touring the parks in north Mecklenburg today and Ramsey Creek is definitely the highlight. It is a large park and unlike the nearby Jetton, includes a sand beach and a boat launch.Ramsey Creek Park has two fenced in dog parks, one for larger and one for smaller. The parking for them could be closer to the entrances but it is what it is. The gated areas are double gated so that you can leash up remove leashes safely. There are a number of requirements for dogs to use the park including current vaccinations and such.Playgrounds, picnic areas, lots of walking trails. It's a big park!The beach is closed for the winter and there was no cost to enter the park today.[Review 12644 overall, 2436 of 2019.]

Heard so much about this place we added to our collection of places to see. Arrived and they didn't have the bees under control. Not just Radom bees in nature no these were in the way of trying to enjoy the lake. There is also rocks in the swim area which is really uncomfortable. Nice scenery though for a relaxing time off the water.

Beautiful park on Lake Norman. We stopped here on our drive from Ashville to Charlotte, NC. The beach closed on Labor Day but the park is still open. We saw folks kayaking in late September.

Great place!! We take out our Jetskis there most weekends and take the family to the beach they have there!
