Confirmed from Comstock Township Firefighters Memorial'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.
Paved recreational space featuring a playground and a memorial for veterans, plus ducks and geese.

Great little park to take the family. The Kalamazoo River runs right through it. You can fish. It's gorgeous.
Beautiful new toys for the kids to play and a nice track all around it for a nice walk! Absolutely love it!
Nice park. Clean playground and a nice paved walkway around the park. There's geese to feed and watch.
