Confirmed from Babe Mann Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Relaxing park and water recreation area for picnics, running and fishing.

Very peaceful place. Nice Picnic tables and clean bathrooms. Definitely my go to quiet place! Has a nice walking trail with benches around water.
A gem, hidden just of Rte 43 with a nice walking path around the water, a gazebo with generous space and plenty of parking.
Great park. There are 2 soccer fields and a small clean lake with a walking/running path where many folks walk their dogs. The rest rooms are clean and have running water. The lake is quite deep and is a popular fishing hole Swimming is prohibited for humans.
