Confirmed from Mike Lewis 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.
Grassy expanse with basketball & volleyball courts, plus a playground, horseshoes, trail & fishing.

“Its all paved and clearly marked trail.”
Really nice,very shaded walk area, and the library is beautiful. The swings were nice. Also what i believe are ping pong tables there 3 of them... looks like.... also has outlet to plug 3 prong to charge or connect something else electronic in. Sems like a relaxing spot more than of an active spot
Really nice park with walking trails and lots of trees. We held a car show there and it was plenty of space to park. Very esthetic, great place for pics because of the small pond and water fountain! The pavilion is huge and will hold a big party
Nice park. Went for a 5k. Saw people fishing in a small pond. There were sand volleyball courts. Great jogging trails with mile markers. There is a nice long wooden bridge and an overlook. It's still under construction but it's a nice place.
Nice running paths and exercise area. Not the most pristine looking river, but it was okay. All paths are 6' wide and concrete constructed. Good for biking or running. Trail connects to another park further south.
