Confirmed from Doty 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.
Park with a tennis court, basketball and pickleball courts, picnic tables, and a playground.
What runners say about Doty Park
“Pavillion is very nice, high wooden ceilings, block brick and clean and private.”
“Doty park is a beautiful lake front park showcasing something for the whole family.”
This park is awesome!😎👍 2 boat launches and could launch a kayak from the boardwalk. 🅿️Large parking lot. 🚻Bathrooms are a short walk from water access. Launch into the Fox River Neenah channel and take an easy paddle against the flow to head towards Lake Winnebago.
We went to the Independence Day fireworks show here. It was awesome. Plus, I got back home in 20 minutes afterward (8 miles). This makes me never want to leave Wisconsin. If we could just get the progressives to all move to Illinois, Wisconsin would be paradise.
We went to the park to walk the dog and see the shoreline. Walking into Doty Cabin was a very pleasant surprise! It was nicer than some lighthouse tours we've attended. The tour guide was amazing! She was a walking encyclopedia of WI history! It was a hot day so we couldn't stay inside to see the entire cabin.
