Confirmed from Max Starcke 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.
Kid-friendly urban space featuring basketball and tennis courts, a disc golf course and more.

I love this park! There's a great dog park and paved trails. There's a Frisbee golf course river access for kayaking, Golf, lighted and covered Basketball FULL courts, baseball fields and plenty of covered Pavillion. Its one of the best City Parks, anywhere! Stop and check it out.
We visited in early February so the trees were very bare. But it still seems like a nice place for a walk or meditation. At least if you sit near the waterfall. Very expansive area; take the drive along the river, there are a few places to park and have a picnic at the picnic tables that are available.
A Hidden Gem for Families and Outdoor Enthusiasts This small playground is perfect for little kids! The beautiful area provides a lovely backdrop for a leisurely walk, allowing you to take in the scenic surroundings. It remains a hidden gem for many locals, which adds to its charm.
Beautiful park that has everything! There is a 0.8 mile walking/biking trail with adult excersice station. The park also includes a disc golf course, multiple playgrounds, basketball court, tennis court, dog park, and golf course! The dog park was nice and large. There are a couple of public bathrooms in the park too.
