Confirmed from Potter Wood'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.

Fantastic small trail system. Connects with the Biscuit City Preserve which is also a great walk. Both are short walks but have plenty of variety.
Wonderful trails with a variety of trees and birds, it is a popular spot for families walking, can be busy at times.
Nice property. Beautiful trails. Could use more trail blazes. Will definitely go back.
