Confirmed from Rolling Ridge 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.
Small park with a playground and a clean basketball court, plus tennis courts.

“The playground equipment available suits kids of all ages.”
Park is kept very clean and its usually very quiet and a great place to take the kids to run off some energy. Plus it has a water fountain and bathrooms which are also kept pretty clean and very convenient when you have a toddler potty training
Nice little park with decent playground area. Nice trail in the back. Walk back and check out the little creek. I didn't know about it the first couple of times I visited!
Very clean well maintained. A five star except for the uneven ground. Made walking difficult for older Americans.
Great place to have any get together. Very clean facilities and nice shaded area for those hot summer days!
