Georgetown Lake Park
City park
👍👍 This is a small but nice park that we found in a area we were nearby. At the time we were there is was no one else there. The small lake was relaxing. This park has shaded areas and a nice gazebo on the lake. The decking throughout was freshly redone.

Russet Woods Park
Park
👍👍 We Love Our Neighborhood Park! The shade is fantastic and keeps all the kids and equipment comfortable! There's 2 benches for Mommies and Daddies, or in my case GiGi's. Picnic tables under a gazebo too for picnics! Walking track to exercise while the kids play.

Hoover Inverness Nature Park & Trails
Park
🫤 I'm not sure why others said these trails were well maintained. There is so much broken glass and also an area where people have obviously gone and dumped their trash, including appliances, scrap metal, and furniture.
The natural area is beautiful and the trails ARE nice but when you have to be care...

Blue Ridge Nature Trail
Nature preserve
👍👍 The trail is well laid out and fairly easy to traverse. There is a pretty creek and a beautiful bridge.
The playground is mostly fenced and fairly quiet. I love that there are restrooms available as well.
