San-Lee Park, Sanford

Cool park with two WATERFALLS!!! The playground area is built right next to the creek and waterfalls! So Cool! You can walk up the hill too see where the pond/lake is at, and then the run off comes down abs creates two little waterfalls. They’re really beautiful. The playground has rope features to climb on. There are trails back in the woods to walk on and have a nature hike! Nice little park in Sanford! Too bad they have a gate abs actually shut it abs lock it at 5:00PM?!?!?! Kinda strange….

Wonderful out door experience. Clean and spacious picnic area with grills park side. And the trails and Camping area are kept clean and garbage free. Will go again.

Nice, small park. The kids had a great time playing at the 'waterfall' and with other children on the swings and throughout the park. FYI: there are no paved trails...that's what we were seeking.

Really enjoyed hiking at San-Lee Park today. We went on the Thoreau Lake and Leopald Lake trails which took us around both lakes with a distance of about 2 miles. You can enjoy a view of the water on the majority of the walk. These trails are appropriate for moderate hiking as there are many tree roots, and the trail is pretty narrow. I would not recommend trying to push a stroller on these trails. The restrooms at the Nature Center were clean. What a nice facility. We'll be back!

San Lee Park is an awesome contribution to mountain biking in the Raleigh area. It is leading the way for intermediate and advanced riding. No other trails in the area have as large jumps, and the single track has optional technical features. I'm terms of accessibility many of the technical areas have the ability to ride around, however if you think Harris has roots or if that one time you did Rocky road you hated it, then might not enjoy the single track at San Lee.
