Confirmed from Lee Lydic 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.
Laid-back park with a pond, dog park and playground.
What runners say about Lee Lydic Park
“Park is clean, big catch and release pond, playground, baseball field, pavilion you can reserve.”
“The community dog park is a nice addition to this otherwise quiet recreational park.”
“Everyone is so friendly and we find our dog loves to play with others.”
This park was spectacular! An unexpected find when visiting Ohio. A great caged dog park with fun obstacles for your pooch. Fish were jumping all over the pond. I walked around the path and it was all paved so handicapped accessible.
The dog park at this park was clearly well maintained. It had a few agility pieces, like a tube and a dog house you had to run up into. It was not separated by size so all dogs have to play together. Compared to other dog parks it is small, but not busy and clean.
Very nice small park. Dog play area needs cleaning. Smooth walking path. Small fishing pond perfect for young children
We love this park. Before our children were born, we enjoyed walking the trail around the pond. Now we have preschoolers who love the playground. Benches in the shade, plenty of picnic space. Can fish in the pond when the kids get a little older. Decent (gravel) parking.
