Veterans Park

What a wonderful place to take the Littles to play...from tennis courts, to baseball fields, soccer fields, playgrounds, a water park and workout spot with equipment where you can work on agility and use your own body weight for a good workout. The kids loved it and I did too.

Amazing park for the little ones! It has a huge splash pad with different water fixtures all over, a small toddler and big kid playground with slides and swings, a soccer field, a basketball court, and even a workout station for the grown ups. My little guy had a ball! The only improvement is that I wish the water in the splash pad wasn't soo cold...like freezing. And because the splash pad is in a shaded area, it got cold pretty quick. The good thing is after a few rounds on the slide in this weather, he was completely dry lol.

This lovely park in Charlotte's "central" region is quite large at 19 acres and a whole lot of features. There are two half-court basketball courts, a splashpad, baseball field, softball field, six tennis courts, two picnic shelters, a playground and a large walking trail.The indoor shelter is available to be reserved.We took a walk around the park and it's in great shape. There seems to be enough parking.[Review 12578 overall, 2370 of 2019.]

Nice basketball rims and really nice tennis courts. For some reason they split the hoop court with a planter box down the middle, so no full court, but the glass backboards and level court was nice playing on and we met some cool dudes to play some half court with.There is plenty of parking a few fields for other sports and kids play structures, etc.

It's a nice park in Charlotte! The spray ground for the kids is actually covered, keeping them safe from the sun! Love that the benches are right there too, so you can keep a close eye on your little one!

If you have kids, this park should be on your must see list. There is playground equipment for both big and little kiddos and restrooms are a few steps away. But don't forget your swimsuits because there is a super large splash pad that is... wait for it... completely covered. Beside the water area is a spot for parents that is also shaded by large trees and has a few picnic tables.

I typically enjoy coming here to play tennis, but I gotta tell you, it's annoying when people occupy the courts playing everything BUT tennis. The smell of marijuana is off-putting as well, but that's fairly rare.All in all, it's a nice place to come to.

Ive grown up in the area and can tell you the wonderful transformation this park has gone through. It's family friendly and the splash pad is the best around. The splash pad is shaded which most around the area are not. You will always find family's and large groups gathered. There is a kickball legacy that meets every Sat and Sunday. It's clean and well kept. Most of the time you'll see a police car in the area or the parking lot. They have installed a crossing light close to the Central Ave entrance which is great for the families and folks that live on the opposite side.

Oh, Veterans Park. How you so lovingly sit quietly along Central Ave with so many amenities. Not many people know of how accessible and resourceful this little Plaza Midwood assett truly is. Stomp the break, the entrance comes up quickly, and pull up the long drive into the abundant parking lot. There are several tennis courts open for public use that stay lit into the evening hours. Get your game face on, shave that McEnroe mustache and grab your racket. Some experienced players show up to these courts on a daily basis. This facility is perfect for an afternoon pickup game of softball/baseball, basketball or bocce. Also, many mountain bikers can be seen riding throughout the small wooded area and more open fields. Bring the kiddos, too. There's a fantastic playground and, dare I say, a fantastic covered water fountain pavilion. Don't have kids? Pshh. Even the adults will have fun. Jets of water spraying out of the ground make for laughable memories and beat the heat like your mama didn't know. There are plenty of trees to sit under and get in an afternoon of reading with your current literary treasure as well. I love this park and miss frequenting several times a week. One of the more quiet parks in town and is worth a visit!

So many hidden gems in Charlotte, and Veteran's park is one . Came here to watch my love play flag football , granted it was late when we arrived so I didn't get to walk around too far , but I could have bc this park is well equipped with lighting. There is plenty of parking and as soon as you enter you can see the large fields to host organized sporting events or play tennis on the well kept courts . What I enjoyed the most was feeling like a kid again on the huge playground equipment . My daughter and I went down every slide , I can't remember how many there were but definitely enough to keep any energetic young one busy . Swings , monkey bars, assorted ladders , baby swings , you name It this park has it and it's neat! I'm going back to play more :-)I look forward to seeing what else Veteran's park has to offer when I visit during the day , but this will definitely be the go to park for my baby boy when he starts walking .
