Confirmed from Big Lake Township's Townhall and Lions 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.
Park with a playground and a dog run, as well as trails and shelters.

This is a very nice park, the trails are well maintained and the trees and surroundings are beautiful. I have taken my dogs to the dog park which is also nice, the big and small dogs have separate areas and there is a spiket of water for them to drink. My daughter loves the playground, there is also a baseball field.
The park was clean and well maintained. There is plenty of parking around the area and there is a lot to do. There is a park, plenty of small trails to hike, and a dog park for your pups.
Stopped by briefly to pick up produce at the monthly produce distribution. It's always well run and organized and it's easy to get in and get your fruit and veggies.
Proud of my little town's park, it's awesome and surprisingly big, great little trail to the river too
