We had a great time walking on the balance beam and swinging. We did wish there were some big slides.

I've been a regular visitor to this park since 2014, long before there were basketball and pickleball courts. The relatively recent addition of the courts bumped my review from 4 stars to 5. The courts have a surface that is much better on the lower body than a typical concrete court, and they are well-maintained. I'd like to see an additional court broom, as the pickleball and basketball courts share one broom and it needs to be replaced soon. Then again, most parks don't even have a single broom, so I'm nit-picking.

This is a beautiful park, Walnut Street Park in Cary, North Carolina is a great place to visit for people of all ages. The park has something for everyone, including a playground, a paved trail, open space for picnics and recreation, and a boardwalk.

The playground is especially popular with families, as it has two separate play areas for different age groups. The play area for older kids features a newer style of play equipment with ropes for climbing and pieces that spin kids around. The play area for preschoolers is more traditional, with small slides, a sand area, balance beams, and swings. In addition, it is a poured rubber surface.

The paved trail is a great place to go for a walk, run, or bike ride. The open space in the park is a great place to have a picnic, play frisbee, or just relax and enjoy the outdoors. There are also several picnic tables and benches scattered throughout the park.

The boardwalk at the back of the park offers stunning views of the wetlands. The boardwalk is short but sweet.

Overall, it's a beautiful park.

It's a nice spacious park, activities for both older and younger kids. But the swings very badly needed some WD-40, they squeaked so much it was hard to play on them.

Nice little park. Grabbed some cook out across the street and enjoyed a picnic table in the shade. Well maintained and lots to do.

Great little park, we stopped for lunch on June 30th after being stuck in accident traffic. The walking path and different play areas were perfect for our 1 year old daughter to walk around. Good shade trees and clean bathrooms.

Nice play area for kids with a walking trail around the park

One of the best kid's parks in Cary; decently maintained and nice toys. Also has a good, though short, walking trail and nice picnic area.
