Confirmed from Rust 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.
Trail-filled park featuring baseball and tennis courts, a playground and lush gardens.
What runners say about Rust Park
“Nice well maintained playground with restroom close, great for little ones.”
“Walking trails, a creek, bridge, a human clock, lots of beautiful plants and flowers that are redone every year and a walking book trail too!”
“Nice quiet park at the end of a road, great for taking pups for a walk.”
An absolute gem of a public park, fully maintained and clean. The playground is large and fenced in, conveniently located next to the pavilion, restrooms, and courts.
Nice well maintained playground with restroom close, great for little ones. Park also has a tennis court and a basketball court. Nice walking paths(sidewalk) with mild elevation changes.
This is a beautifully tucked away little play area. From what I saw it was very cleaned and well maintained. There is a small baseball field, short trail to walk pets, and a good sized playground. There’s a small stream that runs through the area where ducks like to hang out.
We enjoy the fairly well-maintained structures and sports areas. This is a great place for young children to play and enjoy nature on the short trails. Older kids will probably enjoy the basketball courts and biking areas, same as the adults.
