Confirmed from Spring Lake 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.
Public park with children's facilities, a dog park, maze & direct access to the lake.
What runners say about Spring Lake Park
“There’s a great playground for kids, lots of open space for picnics, and the entire park feels clean and well-kept.”
“But don't let that discourage you because the park is huge and beautiful!”
“It’s a peaceful place to unwind, watch the ducks, or even do a little fishing.”
Probably my favorite park in town. The bathrooms were open but we they were dirty and for some reason only the women's had a peeking window. But don't let that discourage you because the park is huge and beautiful! So peaceful and plenty of activities for families of all ages.
Spring Lake Park is a beautiful spot in Williston! The lake views are stunning, especially at sunset, and the walking paths are perfect for a relaxing stroll or light jog. There’s a great playground for kids, lots of open space for picnics, and the entire park feels clean and well-kept.
This is our FAVORITE park here! So clean and well kept. The equipment is in spectacular condition. There's also lots of different options for play for all different age groups. PLUS dog parks, mazes, bike trails, running trails, fishing. You name it, they have it! We highly recommend 😊
Such a beautiful place to visit no matter what time of year. It is such a nice place to bring your kids and pets if you are looking for a cheap and simple place to hang out and spend time together. They have playgrounds, mazes, separate dog parks and even a swimming hole in the summer time.

The practical stuff
- AccessPosted hours — posted hours below; park gates sometimes close earlier than the listing says
- DistanceNot reported. Trail systems often quote total path mileage rather than a single loop, so measure the route you actually want before you drive out.
- ShadeNot reported. Assume some of it is exposed and carry water in summer.
- LightingRunners report lights on the path — useful for pre-dawn and after-work miles. Lighting and opening hours are separate things, so check both.
- At the trailheadrestrooms — reported by runners
- DogsWelcome, per reviewers. Leash rules vary by park — the trailhead sign is the authority.
