Confirmed from Sam Ryno 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.
Play equipment and a basketball court are among the amenities at this park with a field and covered picnic tables.
What runners say about Sam Ryno Park
“Clean and hospitable, an obvious choice to take my kids so that they may enjoy the park in a quiet community.”
This park is awsome! The park has sidewalks all around the complete park, whick makes it nice for walkers. A very nice playground for the kiddos, basketball hoop, covered picnic tables and a water fountain for our thirsty fur babies after running in the big park basin.
It’s a nicer park in the Blaker/Morgan rd area. No restrooms, but nice younger and older kids playground. Never used the covered area or the bbq pit but looks like it would be decent to work with. Nice half court to ball in. The rim is a bit stiff and the chain net needs to be replaced but it works.
Good place to take the kids at a family friendly environment. This place has a wonderful park as well as a field to kick and throw a ball in, as well as a half court for playing basketball ball. The place has a good amount of space to run and go for a walk.
BEAUTIFUL New park..! Covered picnic table area, large BBQ pit, very nice all age kids playground, FABULOUS basketball court, concrete jog/walk path around very large grassy lot, water fountains for people and pets. GREAT JOB CERES PARKS DEPT. NOW WE NEED A FENCED DOG PARK ADDED..😀
