Wassamassaw Community Park highlights

This park is especially handy when you want options without driving across town. You can bring the dog for off-leash time, take a stroll on the walking trail, or claim a picnic shelter for an easy birthday meetup or weekend snack break.

The space also works well for quick practices and pick-up games, thanks to the courts and ballfield. Since it’s typically open from dawn to dusk, it fits nicely into both morning routines and after-school plans.

  • Baseball / softball diamond

  • Basketball court

  • Dog park (separate areas for dogs)

  • Free public Wi-Fi

  • Picnic shelters

  • Playground

  • Restrooms

  • Walking trail

    Fantastic secret little place, it has restrooms, a great playground, walking trail, enclosed play areas for the doggies and picnic shelters. First of many times that I'll be coming here. It is perfect for a family picnic. The kids had a good time, there were plenty of squirrels to see, so we baptized this place as 'the squirrel's playground '.

    Wassamasaw Community Park dog part area is pretty basic. There are two different fenced in areas for small vs bigger dogs. Semi-shaded. Benches to relax on while your dog plays. There’s nothing extra about them-no play scape for dogs or anything. There is a water fountain outside the fenced in area. There’s also a short walk around the rest of the park. Restrooms are available. Basketball court. This small park is surrounded by homes, but close to just about anything for shopping, food, etc. Not a bad place to let your dog run.

    Very nice park with big and small dog enclosures. Will have to come back with my kids to review the rest of the park!

  • Elizabeth Dawn Brazell

    Fabulous day at the Christmas Tree lighting Festival. Ferris wheel & slide were greatly enjoyed. Plenty of photo opportunities.

  • JeanneAnn Albright

    Playground is outstanding. It is fenced in so children are safe and not running from parents. Benches in the playground area and the path are in excellent conditions and there are plenty of them. Path around the park is perfect for walking laps. Basketball courts are in great condition and used by many people. Bathrooms are clean. Picnic tables are clean.
