Confirmed from Gentrytown 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 with a sandbox for volleyball and picnic tables.
What runners say about Gentrytown Park
“Clean path trails , kid play structure, baseball field, has an inner park trail circle, public restroom available.”
“Usually lots of shade it's a bit out of my way but it's worth it, kid friendly, dog friendly and people often stay to themselves love going here”
Huge well maintained park in Antioch. There is a play structure for young kids. Several picnic benches are available. Nice place for walk and picnics. There is decent amount of parking spaces are in parking lot.
Gentrytown Park is well kept and within walking distance from my home. We took our husky for a nice run in the park. Only downside, the bathrooms were locked.
Park was nice and clean. Has a picnic area, play ground was clean, baseball field was nice and a walking path as well.
This park is great for running a mile, taking a dog a walk, and maybe have a picnic! I Rate this park 5 out of 5 stars because it meets all the ends that a regular park needs.
