Confirmed from Mason Road 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.
Pocket park with a gazebo, providing an arbor and trails for walking.
What runners say about Mason Road Park
“Great for a quick brisk morning run!”
PEACE WAS NEVER AN OPTION!! BONK! All the tailfeathers be at this park! Walking distance, pretty decent view, plenty of ducks ..goose...gesse? But they love to be feed. Sometimes they wonder out into the street and neighborhood... Looking to get into mischief! Word of Advice ...
Plenty of space, picnic tables, and grills for BBQ too. Can't wait for young trees to grow up and provide shades. Ideal park to go for a walk or jog.
My subdivision park. Nice for a quick walk during lunch. Not enough shade though and not as scenic as I would like, but it's definitely great for a one mile walk and convenient. There's space to grow more trees.
Nice place to relax. Walk or run for exercise. Dog friendly. Plenty of room for kids to run and play. Exercise type of area also for workouts. Pavilion to sit and watch the view. No complaints.
