Confirmed from Dellwood 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.
Sports facilities and a playground highlight this park with a pool, walking trails, and picnic areas.

Really great park with a lot of shade and a trail for walking. Nice playground area for the kids and sitting area near by. Every time I’ve gone the restrooms have never been well maintained. They have a volleyball, tennis, basketball courts, and baseball fields as well. Plenty of picnic areas around the park.
My wife and I enjoy taking walks here with our son, the park has lots of facilities for sports and playgrounds for the kids. Recently we discovered the park hours are 6am to midnight which is great, but when dark theres not a lot of light. It would be really great if they added more lamp posts along the walking trail.
We walk our family's dogs around the park and are always so encouraged that we see so many families out playing with the kids in the park. This place is well used and loved by the local community, and the city does a reasonably good job of maintaining it. Terrific place to get in a quick walk or jog.
On a recent visit to Mount Pleasant, I wanted a place to walk. Dellwood Park was perfect. The paved path with changes in elevation provided a good workout and the park, with its stream and trees is a great setting. Only setback was avoiding a stray dog and some off the leash. Well worth a visit.
