Confirmed from Creekview South 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.

Creek view is one of the best parks in the area and it is very nice for walks. Good place for kids and they have a very nice play area for kids. I like their picnic sheds. The park is very well maintained and nice.

★★★★★ — Ram , Sep 2022

Nice local park. It is well maintained has bathrooms and playgrounds. It also has access to the Grandon Farms Trail.

★★★★★ — Sam , Oct 2024

Nice and clean place. Quiet and less crowded. They have a restroom and pavilion. The playground is good for little kids. There is a path behind the baseball field that leads to the nature trail alongside the Sears runs. The trail is beautiful and well maintained. It is approximately 1mile long.

★★★★★ — Meekyoung , Oct 2020

Beautiful walk; some fun climbing trees, flowers. You eventually get down to the water. We look forward to going back with a picnic basket and towels. The walk was pleasent for our small children and we were able to bring out wagon the whole way. We also really enjoyed the playground after!

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.
