As you\u2019ll see in the video, there are two ways to get to Creekwood Park. The main entrance is in the <strong>Creekwood Subdivision<\/strong> which is on Slaughter Road. The other way is via the greenway. You can get to the greenway on Old Madison Pike, between Slaughter Road and Research Park. Keep in mind if you decide to walk the greenway it\u2019s about two miles to get to Creekwood Park.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><div id=\"listingbox\" style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:10px;overflow:hidden\"><h4>View All (1) <a href=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/index.php?action=searchresults&subdivision=creekwood\">Creekwood Park Real Estate<\/a><\/h4><div class=\"FeaturedImage\" style=\"width:32%;height:240px;float:left;overflow:hidden;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/index.php?action=listingview&amp;listingID=256042\"><img class=\"img-polaroid\" style=\"height:120px;; width:160px;;\" alt=\"Main Photo of 212 Sandy Wood Court a Huntsville Home for Sale\" title=\"Click for Listing Details\" src=\"\/\/idx-photos-ihouseprd.b-cdn.net\/AL-NARIS\/21925021\/org\/000.jpg\"\/><\/a><p> <a style=\"text-decoration:none;\" title=\"Click for details of Mls# 21925021\" href=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/index.php?action=listingview&amp;listingID=256042\">Mls# 21925021<\/a><br \/><a style=\"text-decoration:none;\" title=\"Click for details of Creekwood\" href=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/index.php?action=searchresults&CITY=Madison&SUBDIVISION=Creekwood\">Creekwood<\/a><br \/>$285,000<br \/> Courtesy of:  <img style=\"border:none;display:inline;\" src=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/template\/floatingIslands\/images\/nalmls56x14.gif\" \/><br \/><a style=\"color:#444444;text-decoration:none\" title=\"View all Elevate Realty Currrent Listings\" href=\"https:\/\/athomeshuntsville.com\/homesforsale\/index.php?action=searchresults&lo_code=Elevate+Realty\">Elevate Realty<\/a> <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<p><strong>Creekwood Park<\/strong> has several activities that make it a fun place for families. A pretty large playground is a plus for anyone with kids, not to mention lots of grassy land to play on whether you\u2019re throwing a frisbee or going on a picnic. There\u2019s also a nice disc golf course for you avid disc golfers out there. And if you\u2019re into wheels \u2013 in this case the rollerblade, skateboard, bicycle type of wheels \u2013 the greenway is perfect for you.<\/p>\n<p>As you see in the video, <strong>Creekwood Park<\/strong> is home to my favorite dog park in Huntsville. The video highlights the dog park so there isn\u2019t much need for words here. But, in order to clarify what may be hard to tell in the video, the dog park consists of two large areas to unleash your dog. The left side is for large breeds of 25 pounds or more and the right side is for small breeds under 25 pounds. Each side is about 80 to 100 yards long. It\u2019s a huge area for dogs to run around and burn the energy most backyards limit. And, on those really hot days, take your dog over to the right of the dog park behind the nearest disc golf hole and you\u2019ll find the creek. If your dog likes water, it will love pouncing around over there. You can usually expect a decent crowd, especially on the weekend, which is great if you\u2019re into socializing your dog. Hope you enjoy all that <strong>Creekwood Park<\/strong> has to offer!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of the many things Huntsville has to offer, perhaps the most overlooked is the opportunity for time outdoors.
