Freedom Park is an expansive natural wonderland offering something for everyone. We visited with toddlers, and they were spellbound by the praygrounds ... Swings, slides, climbing ropes, and more. An added bonus is being able to go into the cab of a retired steam locomotive. There is a nice restroom building next to the playgrounds, baseball fields, a basketball area, an extensive walking trail, and plenty more. Highly recommend.

This park is HUGE and so peaceful. I am from Georgia and my city could NEVER have such a beautiful park where people respect others spaces and aren’t constantly blaring inappropriate music.
The playgrounds are HUGE, plus there’s baseball fields, tennis court, batting cages, basketball court, volleyball court, and a walking trail around a lake. Plus you can rent electric bikes!
I loved all the monuments. There was also benches and picnic tables all over the place where you could sit and relax. The trees gave perfect shade! This is the absolute best park I’ve ever been to! AND, there wasn’t geese dung all over the place like in GA!

Every council in the UK should be ashamed of our parks, when you see what the USA offer their kids, especially Freedom Park.
The addition of the Panthers traning area is amazing, the bathrooms are nice and clean, the park area is unbelievable and the steam engine just adds more, the only thing missing is a splash pad!
The park itself is beautiful to walk around even in 35° heat.
Our grandson is train mad so we spent 30 minutes in the steaming hot train, a four year old with so much train knowledge and enthusiasm for play.

Super nice park with a lot of space however it was very crowded on the day I visited. Folks were pretty good about staying distanced from one another. I was able to find a spot to toss a frisbee with my brother. I would definitely visit again on a nice warm day!

I was only in Charlotte for about 1.5 days and was looking for something enjoyable and relaxing to do on a Saturday afternoon. Freedom Park filled that bill perfectly. The park was large but not overwhelming. It was busy but not overcrowded. Sporting events were going on, kids were playing, people were sitting out in the grass, sitting on benches, strolling around, bicycling, walking their dogs and just generally having a nice time. Every city should have parks like this for their community.

The park is nice, but it takes a total of 20-30 minutes to do. The loop around the pond is nice for strolling, not really a biking path and only about 1/2 mile long. No big deal overall.

We took a walk around the grounds in the late morning/early afternoon. The views are so pretty and give a sense of calm. Everything is well manicured and taken care of. The fountains surrounded by large trees is the perfect backdrop for a relaxing pause in your day.

Came here with my wife and 1 yr old granddaughter to spend a few hours while mom took care of important business.
This place is beautifully designed and spacious! It sports a beautiful walking path, a large pond, rolling hills, lush lawns, and old-growth shade trees. We could easily have found a cozy spot to picnic, read a book, toss a frisbee, go fishing, go jogging, taken nature photos, or … all of the above.
Parking can be tricky to find, but worth the walk. Highly recommended whether you have one hour or all day.

This is a beautiful park. We went there with my bike club for a friends and family day and everyone had a great time. The other thing that I liked was there are a lot of amenities for all ages. The only reason that I gave them 4 stars is because of the grill situation. I would like it if they would let us bring charcoal grill they only let you bring propane.

The park is great for everyone that enjoys being outdoor. Great place to take your kids and dogs. There is a large playground area for children and plenty of walking trails to take a stroll with your furry friends, jog, bike ride or whatever you may enjoy. There are drinking stations throughout the park to refresh. Everything is very well maintained and it is very clean. Definitely always a good time for the whole family.
