Confirmed from Nash County Miracle Park at Coopers' 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.
Family-friendly park with a playground, basketball courts, baseball fields and a picnic area.
What runners say about Nash County Miracle Park at Coopers
“The playground equipment is unique and in great condition.”
“The only negative thing I have to say is there was NO shade except a place to eat.”
Great for all kids big and small. Just wish it was fenced in because my grandson is autistic and a runner. If it were fenced in we could enjoy it more without all the running after him. We have to always have 2 adults to play here, one with my granddaughter and another with my grandson.
We've added this to our list of places to walk. The walking trail consists of two different surfaces. The circular walk is about 1/2 wide paved sidewalk and 1/2 unpaved sandy path. Sorry, didn't measure it. The path circles around several fenced baseball fields. Beautiful playground for children.
Beautiful, brand new park complete with walking trail, kids playground, basketball court, baseball and soccer fields!
