Confirmed from Coe Lake 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.
Relaxed lakeside park offering 2- and 3-playground areas, plus picnic tables, hiking paths, lakeside fishing and a zipline.
What runners say about Coe Lake Park
“Beautiful park with several playgrounds including one that is handicap accessible!”
What a fantastic park. A little bit of a drive for us but it was wonderful - two playgrounds, a lake,space to walk and climb. Overall, my kids loved it. Only negative is we had to go over to the library to use the bathroom.
Beautiful park with several playgrounds including one that is handicap accessible!! Gorgeous lake with option to fish or kayak. Bridges, walking trails, gazebos, covered porch. Lots of events go on here. You may find extra parking in the downtown area if the lot is full. There is a library here and a swimming pool.
One of our favorite parks in the area. Plenty to do! You can fish, kayak (rent them here too), hike, unwind, etc. Also a Pokémon Go spot(s) here.
They have a fantastic playground/play area for children of all sizes! The walking paths are peaceful and serene. I saw a few people fishing. I love walking around the lake, there are plenty of benches to just sit down and relax too.

“Definitely worth the trip if haven't been there and also entry to Library from parking lot.”
“But the women's bathroom eeeek, it leaves a lot to be desired, it's dark, dreary,and dank I felt like it was step away from being featured in a murder movie.”
