Matthews, North Carolina

Four Mile Creek Greenway offers about two miles of paved trail with neighborhood access and links toward Matthews Community Center, Matthews Elementary, Fountain Rock Park, Squirrel Lake Park, Matthews Heritage Trail, and Matthews Sportsplex. The town also points to historic downtown, the Matthews Train Depot and Visitor Center, the Matthews Heritage Museum, McDowell Arts Center, Matthews Playhouse, and local parks.

Four Mile Creek Greenway can close during flood events or repairs, and a named destination does not tell you how a chosen home handles parking, crossings, heat, surfaces, or the trip back. Compare outdoor options with an indoor plan, care, pharmacy, groceries, and current bus access.
