Confirmed from Lions 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.
Relaxed local park featuring baseball fields, tennis courts and playgrounds as well as walking paths.
What runners say about Lions Park
“Definitely a peaceful and well-kept park for rural suburbia, albeit a little small.”
“Beautiful park, great fishing pond, tents courts, baseball diamond and anew accessible playground.”
“Definitely a peaceful and well-kept park for rural suburbia, albeit a little small.”
Update: swings added, including a wheelchair friendly and paired-play swings. A beautiful hidden park. Updated equipment for young kids to engage nonstop. Tennis courts, baseball, bike trail and bathroom facilities all very nice. And a little pond!
Definitely a peaceful and well-kept park for rural suburbia, albeit a little small. With three shaded picnic areas, a few parking lots, nice jungle gyms, a public restroom, and large grassy fields, it's an ideal spot for familial outings and recreational activities.
Really nice gem of a park. They have lots to offer, including a sweet new playground and a pretty pond. There's a walking trail, public restrooms, and some other things I didn't get a chance to look at, but suffice to say if you're looking for a nice neighborhood park to visit, this is a great choice.
There are two parking lots available, so no need to worry about finding a spot. There is a recreational area with a jungle gym, swings, and a couple other toys for kids. They also have a baseball diamond and I believe four caged tennis courts. My favorite areas are the ponds, which there are two of them.
Trail conditions & character
“I'd say 5 stars but the restrooms were locked so we had to cut our play date short to go to a gass station.”
“Beautiful park, great fishing pond, tents courts, baseball diamond and anew accessible playground.”
“A paved trail wraps around the park and connects the parking lots, and the surrounding neighborhood is both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally inviting.”
