Testimonials
I use the Greenway a lot for biking and running. Unless it’s cold or raining, all of the parking places on Bevington are always taken, so I’m glad it’s a five minute walk from Bonnie Briar to get some exercise.
Being close to multiple transportation choices allows me to extend the fun times. Two minutes away is an expressway that can get me to the airport or downtown in 30 minutes. Or fifteen minutes away is the light rail to get downtown for a Bobcats or Panthers game or the Museum or street-fairs without the parking or driving hassle.
Trader Joes and Starbucks and Great Harvest Bread Company, an Italian and a Mexican restaurant are at Piper Glen Shopping Center, a sidewalk stroll from Bonnie Briar. It’s good that the Four Mile Creek Greenway is across the street.
Ten country clubs and a driving range within five miles of Bonnie Briar. Need I say more.
