Confirmed from Poindexter 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.
Clean park with a basketball court and a playground, plus a skateboard facility.
What runners say about Poindexter Park
“Two small child play areas and 2 older child play areas as well as horseshoes, two softball fields, nice clean restrooms and of course - The BEST skatepark in Ventura county!”
“Love this park great layout so peaceful and always tons of fun for the kids many things to do”
I love this park. It's in walking distance from my house and has so many wonderful trees. My daughter loves it as well. The skate park seems very popular, but overall a good family park.
Well groomed and clean. Lots of grass and shade. Very nice dog run, though it is in the sun.
