Confirmed from Elm Street 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.
Expansive community park boasting a lighted youth ball field, tennis courts & picnic areas.
What runners say about Elm Street Park
Nice having 2 different playgrounds. One more for younger kids and an older bigger one. Younger one has alot of log walkways between steps, slides etc for them to run on. Also a cool little digging area for my construction loving kiddos. Bathrooms were open as well.
I've been to Elm Street park countless times, but it had been a while since i last visited. It was just as I remembered it calm and cool in the shade of the trees, the small bridge over the creek was lovely as the water was moving rapidly down stream.
Pretty awesome! The park for smaller children is soo cool! I can't wait to bring my babies back! We loved it! They also have bathrooms walking trail tennis court n baseball field. Very nice will b returning
