The Charlotte area contains a number of parks and nature preserves within the city limits. Among those is Reedy Creek Nature Center and Preserve, located on Rocky River Road, which offers a variety of recreational activities at no cost, including parking. Of the athletic venues available are basketball and volleyball courts, a disc golf course, and softball and soccer fields, which are open to the public. There are also two ponds in which fishing is available, and picnic tables and shelters dot the property for those who want to make a day of the experience.

About a mile from the entrance to the park sits the nature center, from which a number of trails are accessible. Ten miles of trails are set up within the bounds of the preserve, so the park offers a full days worth of activities without requiring a wallet. Among the trails is the Robinson Rockhouse Trail, which is a short half-mile trek through the woods to the remains of a stone house built in the 1700s. Visitors can walk amid the ruins, sharing a complete tactile experience with history. "The important to budget travel is to prepare ahead. When it occurs to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved trips and/or going to see new spots we have never been before, the fact of cost and budgeting is often in the back of our minds. Organizing and consuming our travel budget carefully is a concern for most families. Lowering expending and charges, while still taking pleasure in your vacation to its fullest, is the key to certain achievements and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The reasoning regarding economizing money while touring is simple: Even if your personal finances is really tight, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, no matter whether on a funds or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a large vacation or travel charge!..". The dwelling ruins are juxtaposed with nature, including a fallen orange tree that lies just beyond the house.

Reedy Creek is open daily from 7 a.m. until sunset, and the nature center is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 1 to 5 p.m. on Sundays. It is closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Find more information at the website: http://charmeck.org/mecklenburg/county/ParkandRec/StewardshipServices/na....
