Piedmont Park
Neighborhood: Midtown

1071 Piedmont Avenue N.E.
Atlanta, GA 31132

Sarah B. writes: Great place to run into friends, have an impromptu race, pet other peoples' dogs and see "interesting people." We usually sit at our favorite spot---the clubhouse turn*---and wax poetic.

*Although there's technically no "clubhouse" at this turn, it…

Chastain Park

4001 Powers Ferry Road NW
Atlanta, GA 30342

Drew W. writes: As far as the music venue side of things, Chastain is truly unique. If you can snag a table (and it will definitely cost you) for a show, I highly recommend it. Being able to bring your own food, wine, mood lighting, etc. makes for a change of pace…

Centennial Olympic Park
Neighborhood: Downtown

265 Park Avenue NW
Atlanta, GA 30313

Gabrielle S. writes: I think that with a lot of Atlanta's landmarks, it's easier to appreciate them fully when you have an understanding of their evolution, most especially "what they used to be". Centennial Olympic Park basically used to be parking lots. This is part…

Candler Park
Neighborhood: Candler Park

585 Candler Park Dr NE
Atlanta, GA 30307

David B. writes: The city has completely re-done the basketball court and the soccer field at Candler Park. Even with the drought, the field is in pretty good shape. If you're around on a weekend morning during the Latin league games you can buy some excellent (and…

Freedom Park
Neighborhood: Poncey-Highland

North Avenue & Freedom Parkway
Atlanta, GA 30307

Ivan S. writes: Back when I was jobless and living in the Poncey Highlands, a friend of mine (also unemployed) used to insist that we go on "man walks." Now the fact that he referred to the activity as a "man walk" didn't bother me so much until he started to refer…

Lullwater Park

1463 Clifton Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30329

Ivan S. writes: Though Piedmont Park gets all the glitzy attention in Atlanta, a deserved centerpiece of greenery centrally located in the hustle and bustle, off to the side on Emory's campus, Lullwater Park plays Jan to Piedmont Park's Marcia. Such shouldn't be…

Tanyard Creek Park

Collier Rd at Walthall Dr
Atlanta, GA 30309

Drew W. writes: I hesitate to review this park, because it's one of those little secret getaways in Atlanta that I enjoy for its relative seclusion. But...to share is to care, I suppose.

Tanyard Creek Park is the site of some of the fiercest fighting during the…

Stone Mountain Park

US Hwy 78 E
Exit 8
Stone Mountain, GA 30087

Blake B. writes: This review is more aimed at the only reason I've ever come to Stone Mountain: the laser show. THE LASER SHOW! The name alone just espouses some hick-ass repercussions. "We're gunna go out and sit in a big ol' field with blankets and KFC and rub…

Beaverbrook Park

Brookview Drive at Tennyson Dr
Off Howell Mill Rd
Atlanta, GA 30318

Tessa H. writes: I grew up going to Beaverbrook Park weekly. It was where I made my earliest friends, got my first bloody nose hanging from the monkeybars upside down, and went "creeking" with my father and little sister years later.

Beaverbrook Park is the epitome…

Lenora Park and Disc Golf Course

4515 Lenora Church Rd
Snellville, GA 30078

Justin B. writes: I don't know too much about the Disc Golf aspect of the park. I am sure there are a bunch of hippies that travel to this park and play frisbee golf every chance they can get. I think it would be safe to assume that hippies like to go to many…

Kennesaw Mountain

900 Kennesaw Mountian Dr
Kennesaw, GA 30152

nikki k. writes: I have been to Kennesaw Mountain more than any other mountain. Why? Because every year my elementary school in East Cobb made us hike up the side of it, while recounting the battle that went on here. I loved it.

This is a semi- steep mountain that…

Inman Park
Neighborhood: Inman Park

Euclid Ave and Elizabeth St
Atlanta, GA 31136

Stephanie S. writes: The best example of old Atlanta renovated into quaint neighborhood houses with freshly painted yellow and blue hue windows and red brick front stoops lined with azalea bushes and giant magnolia tree roots cracking the sidewalk. I wish I could live…

Tom Lowe Trap & Skeet Range

3070 Merk Rd
Atlanta, GA 30349

Eric S. writes: Click, click BOOM!

Talk about a ton of fun!!! I was first turned on to Tom Lowes Skeet and Trap shooting range oh... about a year and a half ago and fell in love with it. My first visit out was with a veteran skeet shooter that probably hits 98% of…

Dunwoody Nature Center

5343 Roberts Drive
Atlanta, GA 30338

Stephanie S. writes: Find and Explore Nature on 22 acres in Dunwoody!

I remember as a kid going to Dunwoody Nature Center for either class field trips or Girl Scout meetings to earn badges. We would trek through the creek trying to catch toads, or getting in trouble for…

Brownwood Park
Neighborhood: East Atlanta Village

Emerson Ave at Brownwood Ave SE
Atlanta, GA 30316

Drew W. writes: Brownwood Park seems like a forgotten park in many ways, it's usually very peaceful and quiet when I go there. It's a block off of Moreland Avenue, but you wouldn't know it. It's a great spot to walk your dog or go for a run.

The tennis courts are in…

Grant Park
Neighborhood: Grant Park

840 Cherokee Ave SE
Atlanta, GA 30315

Drew W. writes: Sometimes I feel like Piedmont Park gets so much pub that we forget about how great Grant Park is too. When I first moved to Atlanta I spent many a weekend exploring Grant Park, watching the ultra competitive soccer matches on the fields, and playing…

Roswell Area Park

10495 Woodstock Rd
Roswell, GA 30075

Blake B. writes: This has been one of my favorite public parks for almost 10 years now. In addition to the large public activity centers they have established (including a swimming pool that costs $5 a day or free with membership, an art gallery, baseball and soccer…

Piedmont Dog Park
Neighborhood: Midtown

1071 Piedmont Ave
Atlanta, GA 31136

Melissa B. writes: I love the Piedmont Dog Park because my pointer/boxer, Truth, loves it! She runs herself ragged as she is usually the dog all the other dogs are chasing. She crashes when we get home which is a rare gift. I really do love going to the dog park.…

Fuller's Park

3050 Robinson Rd
Marietta, GA 30068

Blake B. writes: Fuller's Park is less of a park made for relaxing and hanging out and more of a community sports facility. They have something for almost every sport: several baseball and soccer fields, a gymn with a basketball court and activity rooms for working…

Briscoe Park

2770 Lenora Church Rd
Snellville, GA 30078

Justin B. writes: If I had been writing a review about Bricoe park when I was 11 years-old I probably would have given the place 5 stars. Briscoe park has lost any and all appeal to me though now that I am an adult. It has not lost the appeal is once had because I…

Murphy Candler Park

1551 W Nancy Creek Dr
Atlanta, GA 30319

Stephanie S. writes: Baseball, Baseball, and more Baseball.

This park is known for its baseball fields and baseball leagues. In the spring time, you can find every inch of possible parking space covered in SUVs. Driven by obsessive Dunwoody moms, these caravans are filled…

Blackburn Park

3493 Ashford Dunwoody Rd NE
Atlanta, GA 30319

Stephanie S. writes: During high school cross country, we occasionally ran through this park on our long runs. However, they weren't the most entertaining runs. There is no lake in this park, and the trails only pass by a few soccer fields, park benches, and tennis…

Esther Peachy Lefevre Park
Neighborhood: Cabbagetown

Wylie St at Powell St SE
Atlanta, GA 30312

Blake B. writes: I had to walk past this park 4 or 5 times before I could remember the name long enough to review it. You might think I'm making this up, but Esther Peachy Lefevre Park is for real. I couldn't make up a name that awesome.

Located in the elbow of…

Pemberton Place
Neighborhood: Downtown

320 Centennial Olympic Park Dr NW
Atlanta, GA 30313

Jason K. writes: Home of the Georgia Aquarium and the World of Coca-Cola, Pemberton Place is a strip of green space, pools, and fountains located between the two mega-attractions.

The opening of this space has made life much easier for those waiting to get into the…
