Confirmed from Dr. Charles B. McKissick 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.
Clean destination for kids featuring swings, slides, a playground and an open field.

“The park was newly renovated and is clean.”
Great walking trails and cool playground toys. Some really cool swings and toys for disabled people to enjoy too. We really like this park
I love the place lots of space there's a park for kids and a path for adults
It's a small park. Good for walking around it's loop. Kids play in its field. There are swings and a small playground. There it's no phone number as this is not a business or plaza.
Nice park. Has big field to run around or to play soccer and baseball in it. There's a pavilion with cover, benches, a walking/running trail around play area. No basket ball court.
