Confirmed from Milburn Creek 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.
Creekside 24-acre green space with a half-mile walking & jogging trail & a boat launch.
What runners say about Milburn Creek Park
“So if you bring small children here, pack handy wipes as the kids can get dirty hands you'll want to clean before getting back in the car.”
“In spring, the cherry trees bloom in shades of pink making the views of the Coral House picturesque.”
“Very Serene, a lot of room, great place to launch a boat or jet skis or just at the picnic with the family.”
This is a nice little nature park in Baldwin. The path starts by a boat launch and you can walk up to Merrick Road by the coral house, take a loop around the pond and head back. You can also bike, run or possibly roller skate this path too.
Love the place. It's very nice to go for a walk or go through on a bike. When you see the waterfront you're left thinking this is beautiful. Totally recommended.
Didn't know about the birdcage with the interesting peacock looking rooster sounding animals. But that's the video that was on the site here. Love the Overlook from the Coral House. Enjoyed eating lunch here when I work nearby nice park.
This is my valium! The swans are swimming, the geese are laying, Christmas in spring! Gorgeous walk. There's an outside gathering across Merrick rd on the east side of the pond. Looks like an outdoor workout , gonna ck it out!
