Arnette Park

Recreation & Fitness

Arnette Park sits on old Highway 87 about four miles south of downtown, where roughly 100 acres of woods slope toward the Cape Fear River. Fayetteville-Cumberland Parks and Recreation keeps part of the land developed with picnic pavilions and restrooms and leaves the rest as natural woodland. Disc golfers know the park for its 18-hole course, established in 1996 and listed with the PDGA as Fayetteville Memorial DGC; it uses asphalt tees, charges no fee and threads through ravines and tight wooded fairways. Every December the park road becomes the route for Christmas in the Park, a drive-through holiday light display presented by the city with support from Fayetteville PWC. Schedules and any admission charge for the light show change from year to year, so check the city's events page before going. Pavilion reservations go through the parks office at (910) 433-1547.
