Playtime at the Catawba Meadows Park

Updated: Mar 26, 2020


In downtown, Morganton is the Greenway. On the Greenway is the gem you seek. The price? FREE! I got you. Twenty minutes from the vacation rental is your cure for 'Momma needs a break'. Go play at the Catawba Meadows Park in Morganton.

A fortress on a grand scale!

I would have given up all my Little Ponies for a playground like this as a kid.


Let's talk a walk...

One the first side of the 'older kids' structure is a slide, rope climb.
