Renaissance Park

2025.01.05 ~10:00, sunny 40s_F, clear blue sky, i did a walkabout Rennaisance Park and W Tyvola neighborhood. Saw a total of 20+ people and 2 dogs in the Park. The trails and side-walks were in good condition and clean 👍

Beautiful park with many facilities. From tennis to basketball and even two high quality disc golf courses. If you are traveling through Charlotte this is definitely a good option to stop and play. Though there is no shortage of amazing wishlist quality courses. Just be sure to make your lines here or you will be very deep in the woods.

Barely more than a chip shot from Charlotte International Airport and just off busy W. Tyvola Road, the tranquil park is a pleasant and wide-open refuge that feels miles away from the city. Good spot for active (disc golf, beach volleyball, skateboarding, etc.) and passive (walking/hiking/cloud-gazing) recreation.

PSA I was at Renaissance this morning around 8:10am and had a very unsettling encounter. I was leaving the dog park when an elderly man with 3 off leash dogs started screaming at me and my dog and threatening us with violence. My dog is only interested in fetch and didn’t react with the man or his dogs at all, nor did I. I have seen this man at the park fairly frequently and this is the first time there was any kind of issue. I called the non-emergency police # and called park services but could not reach anyone. Just want other people to be aware!

The park is magnificent. At the time I went (4p), it was clean and had great weather. Elements such as The open walking trail, the ballparks, volleyball court and dog parks were splendid. I would recommend anyone who has a dog, a hunch for outdoor sports, or just doing some outside exercise!
