Confirmed from Buschman 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.
Public recreation space featuring a picturesque lake with a boardwalk, plus a pavilion & trails.

Nice quiet hidden park. There is a small play area for the kids with a climbing wall and lots of shade. When I went it was well maintained and I didn’t have a chance to walk back to the pond with my daughter in tow.
Very nice place to have a picnic! Love watching the fish jump out of the water, they are very active here. Great walking trail, too.
Cute. Quiet park. Has a playset, mini rockclimbing wall, outdoor gym, running/ bike trail, and a beautiful pond.
Park was in good shape and the tall, Long double sided rock climbing wall makes it a unique spot. Shade tree and a bench, not in shade when we were there. A good stop for some play!
