Confirmed from Mississippi Point 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.

“Champlain landing has the clean your boat off machine, clean, drain dry ect, anoka doesn't.”
“The trees are huge and gorgeous in the picnic area, so I hope the redevelopment plan will keep them around!”

Wonderful park, very clean and beautiful views. Great place for a picnic and taking a walk.
Stopped by Q Fanatic down the road and brought here for a lovely meal by the river. I absolutely loved this park. It was quaint, quiet and very scenic.
Nice little park. We stopped here on a road trip to take a little break from the car and it was a perfect place to stretch our legs and let the dog run. There are picnic tables and plenty of shade.
