Confirmed from Lake Camelot 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 playground, picnic shelter and walking paths.

Beautiful park with a boardwalk and Swans. Beautiful Fall colors. October 23, 2023.
♿♿♿ Big fan of the walking path! Gorgeous nature area with nice sidewalk and boardwalk around the lake. Built in swings, established trees, tons of wildlife, etc. The paths are nice and wide with fairly gentle inclines and declines.
So much wildlife! There are many types of ducks, swans in the spring and multiple other birds. The park is full of squirrels and chipmunks. The boardwalk is perfect for viewing the lake. The walking trail is quiet and peaceful in the evening and it is clean and there is no garbage thrown around.
An incredible playground with a separate one for little preschool kids and a HUGE one for big kids! The playground was large enough that the parents were able to climb on it and as a plus size mom, I had no issues on stairs, walkways, or even slides!
Trail conditions & character

“There's also a fantastic walk around the beautiful lake if you're looking to combine some playground time with some nature time.”
“No built in restrooms, but regularly maintained (looked like every other day in the spring) wheelchair accessible portable toilet.”
“No problem with electric wheelchairs or with assistance, but people with mobility issues or not confident wheelchair users may be less comfortable.”
