Confirmed from Linden County 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.
Clean park featuring playgrounds, picnic shelters and a paved path for walking and biking.

Beautiful park with off the grid paths that take you through an enchanted magical part of the forest! Beautiful native plants blooming such as trillium.
Such a fun little walking spot for me, my ma and floof. It's a nice park and haven't gone in the water yet but may do so before it gets too cold. We absolutely love the trails though and the water wells dotted around for pets. There is paved, unpaved, and 2 track trails branching out from the beach area.
Gorgeous area with nice but short trails. Beach was lovely and would like to see it when it’s warmer. Plenty of picnic benches in shade and sun. ADA ramp to get down to beach. Nice covered area for parties
Very nice park! Lots of space and a well maintained. There are some very fun looking playground equipment that children were enjoying. The pavilion we used was very clean and well maintained and there was plenty of picnic tables for seating, with two very convenient waste receptacles on either end of the pavilion.
