Confirmed from Don White Memorial 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.
Waterfront space known for serene spots and outdoor activities like kayaking, grilling and swimming, plus picnic areas.

“The surrounding area is very walkable, with scenic paths along the river that make it a worthwhile stop for anyone visiting and looking for a relaxing stroll.”

I've been here a couple of times. the first time, it was very much still under construction. now, it's much more established as a park. it's beautiful! I love that there are little rock sections where you can sit and look at the Chattahoochee.
Beautiful park in Roswell. You can enjoy chilling here. Also, you can rent a kayak, tube, paddle boat and enjoy the water. One of the best place in Roswell to enjoy the nature. There is a trail, BBQ grill and kids park as well. Although the park closes after sunset but I planning to come here for Stargazing.
Great park and walking/bike riding trail. Lovely view, very clean, and enough parking. Lots of road noise but that can't be help that can't be helped I haven't been here in a very long time and forgot how much I love this area. Roswell has done a great job with park development.
