Confirmed from Stafford 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.
Popular green space for sports and exercise, featuring playgrounds, walking paths, swings and soccer fields.
What runners say about Stafford Park
“Stafford Park is a cozy, clean neighborhood park featuring playgrounds and open spaces.”
The Charles B Stafford Park was named in memory of Officer Charles Brian Stafford, the first and only Miami Springs Police Department officer killed in the line of duty. Officer Stafford was shot and killed on June 11, 1991, during a traffic stop of a stolen car.
Very nice.... Just don't like that kids and adults are allowed to ride bikes and skate boards on walking path while you are trying to walk......
The best park to go and enjoy with kids in the afternoon near Miami Spring and Hialeah!! you can walk and play as you wish!! My kids love it!
The park is good in the mornings. Its quite, clean and safe if you have littles ones under the age of 5. My toddler is a year and half so the mornings is not crowded. Don’t recommend going in the late afternoons, evenings.
