Confirmed from Goodrich 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.
Kids' playland featuring baseball fields and picnic tables as well as slides and swings.
What runners say about Goodrich Park
“Clean, no poop, family friendly, easy play for babies through elementary kids.”
Cool park with lots of things for the kiddos to do. And wide open fields too for them to run crazy and burn off that energy. Kind of a more modern style too which I thought was cool. And a cool roller slide which you don't see often.
Baseball diamonds (and sometimes soccer fields in the outfields), a shelter, walking trail, playground, and tree and grass space. Decent park for the community, but nothing to draw me here if I was coming from far away.
It's really quite cool for just a neighborhood park. Plenty of space to play and neat equipment. I would even recommend driving a couple miles to visit it and it's sturdy enough to allow adults play with their kids
My grandsons love this park and are so happy the pandemic band has been lifted. While they play I walk around the playground to get my steps. 🤣
