Confirmed from Butler Rodman 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.

What runners say about Butler Rodman Park

Pulled from public reviews of this trail (567 of them) — the things people bring up again and again, in their own words. Nothing here is written by us.

well-maintained 8 mentions

“I explored a little of this further back trail and it wasn't well maintained, but I also don't know if it is intended to be a longer trail or not.”

This is a great park! They have several ball fields, batting cage, soccer fields and great playground areas. They also have a simple but enjoyable mini golf course with 9 holes. (I am from out of town and would have brought my putter had I known). There are also several pavilions.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
