Confirmed from Schroeder 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.
Park featuring disc golf and a swimming pool, plus tennis and volleyball courts.

Schroeder Park is a such a peaceful place to take a walk, or let the kids get some energy out on the nice playground. There is a disc golf course, a pool for swimming with the family, even amazing sand volleyball courts! So many activities to choose from! Photos by: @joshandlindseyphoto
We went to Tons of Trucks and then the playground. We really enjoyed it. Very nice playground that is still in the older style. Cool log cabin and picnic area. Plenty of room to run! Nicely kept and clean.

“With access to the park center for nice bathrooms right next door and the water park within walking distance, its a very decent park.”
