Confirmed from Maroney 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, playground and water-park attraction offering a wooden castle plus slides, swings, tennis courts and a trail.
What runners say about Maroney Park
“Park is well maintained and clean.”
“All in all there's good shade and plenty of space for kids to run safely.”
“It's big and there is plenty of room for children of all ages to play.”
The best park I've taken my children to in the area. We love it! Free tennis court, nice smallish walking trail, and wonderful large wooden playground with castle towers, slides, regular, baby, and tire swings, and more! Covered table and benches to eat lunch.
A very well thought out playground. Plenty of benches and areas to sit. There's a small trail and a splash pad nearby (walking distance). Tennis courts are also there but in poor condition. All in all there's good shade and plenty of space for kids to run safely.
Such a fun quaint park. Only one way in and out makes it easier for parents. We love this park and have had many birthdays here too. Private funded park. Nice trail too
