  • Park Road Park features a pond, quite dry as of this writing in 2008 because of North Carolina's recent drought. In the 70's, paddleboat rides were offered. When the pond is high enough, fishing is popular, and the water is a haven for geese, ducks, frogs, and turtles. Signs ask that you not feed the animals. There are covered areas with grills for cookouts, available via reservation with the park ranger. Softball fields are also on site, right across from the recycling dropoff point. Nice play areas for both toddlers and older children. Tennis courts are across the street.
