Confirmed from Sheridan 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.
Waterside access & vistas, plus tennis, basketball, playgrounds & a paved multi-use trail.
What runners say about Sheridan Park
“Rode my bike along the shoreline and this was the most scenic part of the ride.”
Great place to come hang out by the lake and explore, find sea glass and stones. Not generally very busy, the park above is nice see lots of families, runners, and dogs.
Very clean and nice large park. There is a pool, spots to rent for parties. The playground looks fun and there are trails for hiking, biking and just strolling. One paved trail leads down to the lakefront. This Sandy spot has wave breaks and spots for amazing photos.
We took a short and curvy trail to get to the water, where there were cool piers along the beach that you can walk all the way into the lake - makes good pictures! The lake is beautiful!
I love coming here and walking the trails, especially the one that leads down to the lake
