Confirmed from John D Caemmerer 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 with a playground, baseball and basketball courts, tennis courts, and a grassy area.
What runners say about John D Caemmerer Park
“There's not much to do here, but it's overall a very clean and nice park (minus all the geese poop in the spring).”
It is a relatively new playground with facilities right next to it. My only complaint is no enclosure to prevent children from running off into the parking lot.
Let me preface this by saying, I only come here so that my children and make use of the playground. It has a decent sized parking lot. Nestled in the middle of a beautiful community, is this little gem. Adjacent to a base ball field, you can enjoy a school game while your toddler run around in the play ground area.
