Confirmed from Homer Hough Park at Sybelia Point'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.
Lakeside park with swings and a playground for kids, plus a dock for fishing and picnic table rentals.
What runners say about Homer Hough Park at Sybelia Point
“Clean bathrooms, great playground, covered picnic area.”
“This small place is really beautiful, nobody can imagine how quiet and relaxed is here we really enjoyed time we spent that day”
“Wish there was a little more shade over the climbing frame but will definitely be coming back again!”

A great little park. Not a lot of parking, and not a lot to do - but a fun playground, plenty of grass to run around on and covered places to hang out. Plus public bathrooms and good access to the lake - too bad the dock will only hold about two people fishing at a time and that the grass in the lake grows tall.
Quiet place to play or explore the wooded area by the lake. Tons of little fish to see at the end of the dock, even without food to feed them. Great lawn to run around on.
Great park and perfect location. Wish there was a little more shade over the climbing frame but will definitely be coming back again!
