Confirmed from Greenhouse 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.
Park featuring a swimming area and playground, along with fire rings, picnic tables and a trail.
What runners say about Greenhouse Park
“Had a great time and all the restrooms were extremely clean.”
“Beautiful place to fish, swim, and picnic.”
“Absolutely lovely place if u desire some peace and quiet.”
Such a cool local gem. With the improved water quality in the Stonycreek this place is going to continue growing. Conservation and whitewater releases from the Quemahoning make it possible to score great whitewater on a schedule. The developing upstream tailwater fishery will further enhance recreational opportunities.
Just the best spot to surf and play during weeknights when you don't have time to run the river.
