Lake Meade Park

Beautiful beautiful beautiful Oh did I say beautiful If you ever need a break from the hustle and bustle of Main Street sneak over here for a relaxing stroll with Mother Nature They have plenty of trails that run alongside the river and have shade keep an eye out for pretty flowers and they even have tree labels telling you what's growing In addition there is a playground with a walking trail around it The kids area is fenced off so parents can have peace of mind letting the kids play while they walk and exercise themselves There is a dog park as well as a skatepark also The dog area is separated with room for small and big fur babes it is very big and has a lot of room to let Fido run all of his zoomies out I do wish they had a regular bathroom building but the port a potties are bigger than normal and you are walking distance to the Harris teeter which has a clean public bathroom

Beautiful clean trails that led straight to the lake - I was impressed with the maps and signs to help guide people. The park had a huge selection of toys for the kids ... and a few I want to go play on (they just didn't make some of these things back in my days!) Nice little skate park that was packed with teenagers. Tennis courts. Plenty of parking.You can tell it's definitely enjoyed by the locals! We will definitely be going back again.

Cute park with a skate area, doc run and two trails. Fun time with kiddos or a nice spot to have lunch and sit outside.

Great park to go and enjoy the out doors with family. Make sure you bring your own water and sun screen. There are plenty of trash cans so make sure you use them.

Came here with our dogs for the first time the other day and we were pleasantly surprised by how well great this small park was. I don't know I would have ever known about the park without the suggestion of a friend, as it's tucked away behind Kroger's and there wasn't any obvious signs (that I saw at least).The playground area appeared to well maintained and had just about any playground equipment you could think of! I think I counted at least 12 slides all together. A little farther back from the park is some trails and a dog park. There trails we're well maintained and in the shade. A great place to take dogs for a walk or go on a short trail run. The dog park was also decently sized and full of shade and grass for the dogs to play in. When we went there there was plenty of other dogs in and playing together. You do need to be a member to use the park with a small fee of I believe $10/year. Overall we were very impressed by the park and plan to return with our dogs frequently!

Recently purchased a home in Suffolk and one of the top priorities for our pup is locating a clean dog park. This park has a large/small dog run (29lbs and under), and both areas are HUGE!!! The small dog run has agility objects for training or just for fun. This is a members only dog park. While there, we took a 1 mile stroll around the south loop trail. It's really a trail! So if you don't like mud, sand etc, it's not for you. The trail itself was clean and many different trees were identified by markers. I would feel safe walking through the trail alone or with my husband; just in case anyone is questioning walking the trail alone. Also at this location is a nice sized playground for the kiddos and a tennis court. It's also next to a body of water you can see while on the trail.

I was shocked to find there was no Yelp listing for Lake Meade Park and I am embarrassed that I failed to remedy this oversight until today. We have been visiting this park since we first moved to Suffolk three years ago. If you didn't know it was there-tucked behind the Farm Fresh shopping center, next to the cemetery-you'd probably never find it. The main attraction at this park is the Kids Zone playground. There is plenty to do for a wide range of ages; they even have a small, enclosed Tot Lot. All the way around the playground is a 1/6 mile paved path. Feel like tossing a football around? There is plenty of open field for such an activity. Covered picnic tables round off this area of the park.To the left of the playground are tennis courts. As far as I know, you can walk in and use them as long as they're not being utilized for lessons. We've played a couple of times without any issues. Behind the Kids Zone is a skate park. My boys tried skating there once but between them almost killing themselves and the colorful language utilized by the teens who dominate the area, we stay away now.New to Lake Meade is a dog park that opened last autumn. Owners need to register with the city and pay a $10 membership fee per dog for the year in order to use it. There are two areas in the dog park: one for dogs under 30 pounds and another for larger dogs. I have yet to check out the dog park but hope to get my dogs registered soon.There is one final piece to Lake Meade Park that is supposed to happen sometime this year: nature trails should be in place! This is probably the part I am most excited about. I believe the city plans to hold a grand opening for the dog park and nature trails this Spring.If you've never checked Lake Meade Park out before, I hope my review will prompt you to do so! It's a gem in this part of Suffolk.

This place has SO much to offer from its HUGE park area to play at with a variety of great equipment to have fun on and in, it's wooded walking path, it's dog park, it's tennis courts, and finally ending with it's skate park area. This place is SO large and SO beautiful! I love that you can bring your lunch and have a covered picnic area to enjoy your food at without being scorched and/or cooked by the sun on crazy hot days!This place is a kids paradise! It has so much room to play at, or forthem to ride theirs bikes or scooters at if they so choose! My kids always cheer with delight when they know we are going to this particular park that just screams pure awesomeness! It's off of Main Street behind Farm Fresh, so you need to be on the look out for sure...but this is a gem worth finding!!! Don't miss out on THE best kids park in Suffolk...you will not be disappointed!

Today was my first time experiencing this park. I loved how big it was and so many obstacles for the kids to play on. My 6 year old was asking when can we come back and I promised we would definitely make it a weekly thing. Lake Meade park is very nice and I would highly recommend if you're looking to have a fun day with the kiddos.

Hidden gem. Nice park behind Kroger with everything you need: trails (nice and clean), dog run for Lassie, skate park, tennis court, kids zone, picnic area, and more. I really need to get here more.
