We have not been able to confirm the surface, distance or shape of Kiwanis Bacon Park yet from its own listing, the park's website or runner reviews — so those cells stay blank rather than guess. What is below comes straight from the listing and from reviewers' own words. 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.
Sprawling park featuring walking paths, basketball hoops and playground equipment.

The park is awesome baseball diamond. There is a basketball court plenty to do. Two full family size pavilions restrooms clean plenty of open space frisbee golf also, which actually there is a course on Hendrickson park a vary nice one.
Cute little park, great set up for little ones birthday parties. Baby swings are far away from the rest of the play ground which was inconvenient. The trail is good for going on with smaller children to identify some plants. Honestly, it's the smallest trail I've ever seen.
Great park with a range of options for all age groups and accessibility. There's new equipment and a nice walking path It would be really great if people wouldn't vandalize such a beautiful park.
Great place to play basketball and there is three play areas for kids Playing plus one in making there's stuff for all ages and trails connecting off and pavement to ride bikes and more
