Confirmed from Cedar Grove 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.
Family-friendly park with playgrounds and covered picnic areas, plus a basketball area.
What runners say about Cedar Grove Park
“Really nice park overall, well maintained and clean.”
“I especially love the ones under the beautiful cedar trees, but if you're planning a birthday party there's a large shaded picnic area with 2 bbqs next to the playground.”
“Nice park with fitness equipment, 2 play areas for kiddos, and lots of shaded picnic areas.”
“It’s also a peaceful park with tall trees, open space, and walking trails.”
A very nice park. Pet friendly walking trails. Good for bikes. Nice palace to bring the family
Cedar Grove Park is one of my favorite parks to host large parties. You can reserve a large patio covered area with 5 large tables, two large coal grills, next to the playground area, open space, basketball area, restrooms, and the parking lot. It’s also a peaceful park with tall trees, open space, and walking trails.

Great place to go for a walk! The air is crisp and dry so bring water. If youre looking for a breath full of fresh air this is definitely the placd to go . Very peaceful and chill and the people are chill too. There a hike to the side where you can see some nice views
