Confirmed from Settler's 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.
Large park featuring a playground, soccer nets, and tennis courts.
What runners say about Settler's Park
“The rest of the park is decent size and well maintained.”
“The larger kid setup has a shade cover that's usually good until 11am!”
Great park. There is someone walking 3 dogs off leash. I have seen that several times. There is a leash law. This makes it difficult for most of us walking our dogs on a leash. Please leash your dogs,it doesn't matter how well you think your dogs are trained.Thank you!
Love taking my dogs to the dog park. I like how there is grass there. The only problem with grass is when they run sprinklers it makes the grass very slippery for the dogs as they play. Not sure why they would run sprinklers at 8am and not earlier than that. Overall park is kept very nice!
Trail conditions & character
“Two playgrounds, baseball diamond, basketball courts, fenced dog park, covered picnic tables, volley ball, tennis and wide open field.”

“The larger kid setup has a shade cover that's usually good until 11am!”
“Each swing set has a paired ADA-style swing- one for toddlers and the other for a larger (7-10yrs) school age kid.”
