Beautiful park with great walking trails, soccer area, tennis courts and lovely flowers

Nice park for a stroll. Well-groomed groomed grass in areas. Saw people picnicking. Quite a few oak trees and squirrels.

I love this park. It is a lovely mixture of open space for recreation and natural areas to walk around. Theres a paved walkway all through the park, and it is tucked in the middle of downtown Raleigh

Great place for for pictures! Good parking lot space

Pretty neat park just for the laid back or for playing sports.

One of the most beautiful parks in Raleigh. Great fields for play, and the garden area near the historic orphanage buildings is wonderful for picnics and relaxing.

Beautiful location, had a picnic on the grass and enjoyed the weather. Im happy I found this little gem.

Well manicured and maintained, open and airy park with lots of trails and wide expanses of grass. Parking is available in a couple of different spots which are a little hard to find and navigate. Otherwise a really lovely place to stretch out and enjoy some sun.

Family friendly with basketball court, tennis courts and several open spaces for team practices.

Beautiful! The kids loved running around and it was perfect for our family photos

Absolutely gorgeous and very peaceful I love walking through the gardens looking at the flowers and smelling fresh grass just a wonderful walk very nice experience.

Perfect spot to hang out with people, walk, let the dog run around or just lay out on a blanket in the sun!

This is such a nice park with a great view and plenty of hammock trees

Its a beautiful place too have a picnic there are beautiful pecans trees.

I like the grass. Very green and fluffy...yes I said fluffy.....or maybe Im just biased.

What a little gem of a park! Not very large but a lovely green oasis just minutes from the heart of downtown Raleigh. The old homes you can walk into are beautiful. A well kept secret worth visiting.

Beautiful park thats clean. Nice for a date!

Nice local park good for all ages.

Love this park. We used to skip school here when I went to Broughton . Now, its just a really nice place to relax and have a picnic, or play some ball. They have basketball, football and baseball facilities. There is also a nice trail and even a creek. There are picnic shelters with tables as well.

This is a great place to visit on a fall day. It features multiple sport/multipurpose fields, an amphitheater, swings, old school diggers in a sand box, tennis and basketball courts, a walking path, a picnic shelter, and a wedding/event space. The only thing that would make this park perfect is a restroom with running water. They have a porta potty, but the area around it doesnt smell great. I hope the City preserves this beautiful park on the edge of downtown because it is a wonderful space.

Great place for couples, small families and animals lots of room to walk your dogs and a small area for children to play

I go here very often. The park is very nice. There are trails for you to walk, and there are also swings. You can play tennis and also play soccer too. Overall I love it.

Nice & chill. Beautiful magnolias in bloom. Tall oaks waving in the wind. Many kind folks walking their dogs. Great place for a picnic. Perhaps note there were unfortunately no bathrooms available.

A beautiful park for adults. Stuff for little ones is a bit sparce, but the place is ideal for a run, a walk with the dog, or a picnic.

Its a lovely small park, beautifully laid out.

Nice park in the middle of Raleigh near downtown. Tennis courts, softball field, places to okay soccer and just take a nice walk on paved walkways.

The most beautiful 21 acre park that most Raleighites dont seem to know about. A walking trail, botanical gardens, picnic shelter with grills, tennis court, basketball court, baseball field, soccer field and more. The perfect spot to relax and get in touch with the outdoors. Just lovely.

Nice park with lots of open space to play.

Awesome park! Lots of amenities

Nice park for dog walking and scenery

Great environment and good for spot to take family pictures or picnic.

Great place to picnic or run around

Nice park to go walk around. Small playground has swings and some spring riding toys.

Awesome place, you feel the air clean and fresh. Relaxing and good place for the family recreations

Great place for Broughton senior pictures

Very open area with a nice paved walking path. Best place to take your dog for a walk!

Great place to take the kids (pibbles) and go for a walk!

Nice small park for giving the dog a walk. We happened to have really nice weather for the beginning of January.

Beautiful park with lovely views and landscaping

Great, clean park. Nice walking trail. We ended up doing goat yoga with Raleigh goat yoga group and enjoyed ourselves. Peaceful and quiet.

Absolutely beautiful!!

Very nice, visually

Perl of the Glenwood South district. Good for a party at a shelter. Beautiful setting for proposal and wedding. Great for jogging, walking, music etc

Big open spaces. Great for riding cyclocross bikes in the grass.

Beautiful public park just outside of downtown Raleigh. Lots of community sports, families, neighbors and dogs. Lots of old oaks and gardens, a couple sports fields, some swings and a sandbox.

Married my husband here and walk through almost every day with my dog. It’s about the most perfect city park I’ve seen, to the point that my housing is planned around easy access. I miss the huge oaks that fell in hurricane Matthew (and the shade they provided to the playground), but this place still has a lot to offer.

Nice park

Wonderful park and dog friendly! Usually full of people even on a yucky weather day. Make sure your dog is on a leash because not everyone out here adheres to leash laws or have dogs with manners.

Just a beautiful small park. Nice walking path, maybe 15 minute total walk on path. Beautiful spring flowers .

Love that place

Beautiful little hidden gem of a park. Great place for a picnic under the trees

Its nice for adults or older children. But theres not enough of a playground.

Do not sleep on this park. If you want a low key shady spot....look no further

Very Nice place

Nice walk. Wish there was a restroom.

This is a nice park to relax and enjoy the day. Our family comes here when we are visiting our daughter who attends NC State.

Tennis, BBall, soccer, baseball. Nice park.

It was great place to do photos. Love the ampitheater. Nice and spacious.

Nice large parks, easy to access, many facilities available

Beautiful, but no public restrooms. Thats a deal-breaker if you have children. Dont come here unless youre an adult who can hold your bladder for a long time.I brought my 5 children in the spring. Beautiful plants but it didnt last long. I asked the recreation house and of course they have restrooms inside, but they wouldnt let us use them. Not cool.

A very nice hidden gem in Raleigh. Very relaxing

Fabulous little park. You can walk the entire park in a loop, a small part of it is wooded. Usually quiet so relaxing. Great landscape. You can enjoy the blooms and get fabulous photo shoots.Tennis courts and softball field.Dog-friendly.Watch for events such as weddings.

Gorgeous

Great place to skip class to

Beautiful Urban Park. This park offers the family experience with playground, soccer / baseball field, tennis courts. Perfect dog walking area, with doggie poop bags, for convenient clean up.

Well tended park.....flowers and beautiful land scape

Really nice park and buildings, grass is nice too

Great little park close to the city.

Great green space with beautiful landscaping, sports fields, a plethora of benches, and a decent playground (regular swings, bucket swings, sandbox with two sit-on diggers and two vintage riding animals). Large trees provide ample shade. This is a such a nice place for a picnic or a walk!

Beautiful grounds that are well-maintained and plenty to do!

Fred Fletcher Park is a sprawling gem. Inside the park you find a water garden with clearly labeled explainations to help explain the plants that grow within and how the system works. For more physical fun there are playing fields, courts & playgrounds. The best surprise is a gorgeous area of rolling manicured lawns with flowering beds full of exotic flowers. This area has a Historic Building centered among the beautiful grounds.

Beautiful serene day! Quite peaceful.

Great park

I didnt know this place existed until I was invited to shoot a Blondes vs Brunettes Flag Football practice. During this time I saw people of all kinds, playing multiple sports, and just enjoying an awesome day. What more can I say. Great place.

Very nice park conveniently located to where I live. Lots of families here and people walking or playing with their dogs. There is a baseball field and lots of open areas for playing other sports. Plenty of seats along the paths for just sitting and enjoying watching the birds and the squirrels.

Went for a school event. Had fun

Plenty of trees and space. Love it

Lots of open space and family friendly. Please do your part and dont trash up the place. There is a baseball field, children and adult sized swings and much more. Great place to plan an event.

Really nice park! Great little loop to walk my dog around. If it had a little dog park, it would be perfect! Also wish there was a water fountain somewhere (there may be one but Ive never noticed it on my walks).

Great natural area to relax.

I live across the street from the park, and enjoy taking a stroll through the park every once and awhile. There are is a basketball court, soccer fields, and tennis courts among other amenities.

We found this place for our wedding through the city of Raleigh. This is a beautiful place to have your wedding with beautiful gardens and right in downtown Raleigh. Couldnt think of a better place to have my wedding!

I love this park!!! My husband and I go to walk and talk about our younger days, and we just laugh!! There is this particular Squirrl, that stands like a statue when we sit at the bench!! Well, all squirrels look the same to me, but I want to be socially correct!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

Great spot for dogs and families.

Nice area with lots of places to play and spend quality family time.

Great scenic park near my neighborhood. Its also conveniently located near downtown, just a short stroll! Perfect spot to take your pup.

Great place to be in the spring and summer

Nice place to walk around

Its not the best for strollers but ideal for dogs and joggers. I lost my necklace there. Its a silver chain with 3 individual circles with the initials of my husband, son, and dog. It wasnt very expensive but it was the first Mothers day gift from my 1yr old son. Please contact me if you find it. Im heartbroken its gone.

Good vibes forever

It needs some vegetation maintenance!

Beautiful park and great historic buildings you can rent for events.

Beautiful park. Fun and interesting to visit.

Nice little park with a field area as well as some nice paths to walk around

Great little city park

Well maintained, great place to walk around. Beautiful all year long!

Fun place to explore. Theres more there than you may first think.

Nice place

I enjoy going to Fletcher Park to have a peaceful place and take in the scenery.

Best place for Pokemon community day
