Confirmed from Eisenhower 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.
Large park featuring a pond filled with fish & ducks, plus walking paths, playgrounds & BBQ grills.
What runners say about Eisenhower Park
“The park is always CLEAN and obviously taken care of 4.”
“Beautiful park to walk your dog have a BBQ or just lay down a nice comfortable blanket and have a picnic.”
“No shade though, so if you plan on fishing bring a hat/umbrella.”
“It's a quiet tranquil Park with a playground for kids people can fish and barbecue.”
Beautiful park to walk your dog have a BBQ or just lay down a nice comfortable blanket and have a picnic. The bridges walk ways and trees are very elegant in the way they designed this park.
This is a wonderful park! We needed a nice place to take a scenic walk. The park has a man made stream and lake with turtles and is even stocked for fishing. There are huge prehistoric looking trees growing and the birds are chirping like you are in the rainforest.
It's a really nice park. We host or weekly Greyhounds dog walks there. Usually families, people exercising, walking their dogs and fishing in the lake\pond. Beautifully landscaped and well maintained. Only issue is the typical riff raff that are always present and dosent always make you feel safe.
We absolutely love Eisenhower Park! Stumbled upon this area while grocery shopping near by and have been coming to this park almost weekly ever since. (My husband and I take our cats walking here every weekend - yep, we do that <3) Why we love it: 1.
