64 Marketplace

Reviewed By cheryl h - Durham, North Carolina

We are more into collectibles but if you are looking for furniture you will want to check this place out. They had an orange trunk that I really liked and I'm still thinking about making a day trip and going back for it when we don't already have a full car. The place is well organized and clean. The people working there were very friendly, nice, and made you feel welcomed.

Rocky Mount Children's Museum and Science Center

Reviewed By Crystal I - Rocky Mount, North Carolina

My kids and I were just here this past weekend. Every first Friday during the winter & spring, they have free admission, live music, food ( while it lasts), bouncy houses, and a lot more. We had a really good time, the kids did not want to leave. There is also free admission on Sundays. Its a great time to spend with the family or just enjoy yourself. It is a special gem in Rocky Mount.

Rocky Mount City Lake and Park

Reviewed By greenehalltam - Petersburg, Virginia

This is a wonderful place to take your family to relax and enjoy the beautiful view of the lake. Whether you are relaxing in the gazebo, sitting amongst the ducks, or walking around, it's enjoyable and peaceful. Several people stop by to feed the ducks, take pictures, walk, or picnic. It's a nice place to dedicate 30 minutes to an hour for.

Sunset Park

Reviewed By cheryl h - Durham, North Carolina

First I need to say to be sure to check to see if the rides are open. When we were there they had just closed for the season.

The park offers a basketball area, a tennis area, a picnic area, playgrounds, and a disk golf course that are open all year. After the 5th of September the rides (1952 mini train ride, 1920 Hershell-Spillman country fair style carousel, and a cute little ladybug ride) are closed for the season. The carousel was even dismantled. It's still a good place for a picnic or if you just want to stretch your legs after a long drive.

Best Friend's Dog Park

Reviewed By Richard T - Singapore, Singapore

It's a nicely kept fenced park for owners to bring their dogs there to interact with other dogs. Just an open space with tables for pet owners to use. With such an attractive name to the park, I was hoping for something more. Maybe there could be lots of interesting obstacles for dogs to engage in?
I was there alone, looked around, used a mobile toilet there and left. Nothing much here for me without my dog.

The Imperial Centre for the Arts & Sciences

Reviewed By PaulJohnH - Murfreesboro, NC

Visited 3 times this summer with slightly different groups of kids and each time we had a wonderful time! So much for the kids to see and do. I'll be keeping my eye out for future exhibits and look forward to visiting again. While only about 1 hour from my home, I hadn't heard of the museum before this summer, I think it is a very high quality resource, and I'll be looking for reasons to take Scouts and other youth groups to again in the future.
