Confirmed from Long Point State 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.
Waterfront park offering picnic tables and a playground for kids, plus beach access.
What runners say about Long Point State Park
“Please be respectful if you choose to visit and clean up after yourself and your pets, and please don't vandalize this beautiful place.”
“Such a beautiful little park close to home an for some reason its free this year so i take advantage an go down to walk its got a beautiful sidewalk all the way around the park.”
The park was very nice. Plenty of picnic tables, clean restroom, nice path to walk on around the park. I took off one star because the signs for the parking are a little unclear. We parked on the grass (which I believe was where we were supposed to be). There was no one to ask.
This is our favorite place to go cook n let the grandchildren play on the playground and swim. Such a beautiful little park close to home an for some reason its free this year so i take advantage an go down to walk its got a beautiful sidewalk all the way around the park. Makes it nice to walk or ride your bike ect
I just used the boat launch there and boy is it a beautiful launch, 4lanes wide, plenty of room to make the swing in to back up to water, great dock system and plenty of depth of water for easy on n off of trailer along with being well protected with a new breakwall that guides you out into the lake!

“There's a boat launch, good parking area and a great playground for the kids, (and restrooms).”
“Also with ample parking in upper lot with a path n staircase that brings you right to the ramp area, i would consider it 1 of the best ramps on the lake!”
