Confirmed from Quarry 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.
Baseball and soccer fields are featured at this outdoor space, along with a playground and shady spots.
What runners say about Quarry Point Park
“The baseball fields were very well kept!”
“Great shaded playground area to play under to keep cool on a sunny day, and the restroom facility was nice too.”
“5 women sitting while their 14 unsupervised children of all ages ran rampant through the equipment.”
Great playground, kids love to play there, lots of parking. One con is if you are on the soccer teams, the younger teams, you have quite a walk to get there to the fields to the games whereas the older games are closer to the parking lot.
I walk here with my little kids and the park is nice and has tons for my little ones to do and play on. It's a sand park so be advised patents...sand in shoes... in your car... plan accordingly
Great park like paths! I'm physically challenged but don't like the red dot "mats" and seated walker wheels can get locked in them.

“Great shaded playground area to play under to keep cool on a sunny day, and the restroom facility was nice too.”
