Confirmed from Flagship 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.
Huge park with playgrounds, climbing equipment, jungle gyms and slides.
What runners say about Flagship Park
“There are several covered areas with picnic amenities such as tables and BBQ grills, as well as very clean water fountains and restrooms.”
“This is pretty much a quiet and serene place where you can also let the kids run around a good distance and you can still keep an eye on them.”
What a great park! This is the kind of place that you don't mind spending your tax dollars on. For the little ones there are lots of early years things to play with and there are bigger pieces of playground equipment for older kids.
A wonderful park to take the kids and us adults had fun too! The walking path is easily accessible & the wooded path circling the park is just lovely to explore. The facilities were impeccable and I was so impressed by the options, I mean there was a climbing wall! The slides were my favorite!
Really nice park! There is a big playground and another playground for smaller kids. The rubber ground was just redone this year so it's nice. There are nice paved walking paths, public restroom, pond, 2 entrances, and parking. Will certainly come again. By far the nicest park.
Exceptionally well maintained park for the area. Great place to bring the kids or go for a run around their walking/running path. There is a fishing lake nearby as well and plenty of short forest trails to hike as well. Recently the park has updated the grounds and did extra maintenance. Things look great!
