Confirmed from L Scott Stell 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.

★★★★☆ — Nicholas , Apr 2021

Lots of new courts, a great NFAA certified field range, that's Archery range. Run by the Ogeechee Bowmen Archery Club. 4 baseball diamonds. New playground.

★★★★★ — Richard , Jan 2026

Girlfriend and I walk the dog here all the time. Its been built in the year since I started going with her and it has come a long way. Love this place, even after everything. Hurts. But I do.

★★★★★ — Kacey , Nov 2025

The upgrade was much needed. They have the tennis courts covered. They have a nice trail. It looks to have a community garden and a great place for community events!

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
