Confirmed from Rotary 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.
Recreational area with tennis and volleyball courts, plus a playground, and picnic areas.
What runners say about Rotary Park
“Good area in the middle of town, well kept playground, volleyball, tennis, and some trails in the back.”
“There is a large play area for children of all ages.”
This is a great park to bring the kids, especially if you have a runner. There's a fence that runs around the entire playground so you don't have to worry about being on top of your little one running into the street. And the playground is pretty big to boot. There is also volleyball and tennis courts here.
My daughter and I have always enjoyed this park. Good area in the middle of town, well kept playground, volleyball, tennis, and some trails in the back. Making little adventures everytime.
Excellent park. Tennis courts were redone in 2021. Great playgrounds for the kids. Beach volleyball. Nature walks.
Well taken care of park. There is a large play area for children of all ages. There is a building with restrooms. There is a hiking path with a brook, also.
Trail conditions & character
