Confirmed from Mary 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.

🏃 great for running 2 mentions

“Great for kids to run and play.”

Great park for events and BBQ. Plenty of green space, a large playground, and a nice walking path. Great for kids to run and play.

★★★★★ — Dawn , Jun 2023

My son loves the playgrounds and I like the story walk that is sponsored by the Friday Memorial Library. Will's Playground is accessible for all and is inclusive for all kinds of kiddos. The bathrooms are sometimes kind of messy but that's to be expected at a public park. Nice place overall.

★★★★☆ — Amanda , Oct 2024

A great park with paved walking areas, a storybook reading experience, public restrooms, pavilions, a playground, basketball and tennis courts, dock and area to take your boat out. I love coming here for community events, art/craft fairs, a short walk, or to go kayaking around the lake.

★★★★★ — Sunshine , Nov 2023

Love the walking path. Beautiful views of the water. 2 different park and enough pavilions for whatever occasion you may need it for. My only complaint and loss of a star is the plug ins at the bathroom pavilion do not work.

★★★★☆ — Kitsy , Aug 2019

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
