Confirmed from Storybook 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.
Elaborate kids' playground with slides and swings, plus a castle-themed section.
What runners say about Storybook Park
“Very well maintained and shaded from the many trees!”
“It’s so spacious and family friendly.”
We absolutely love this park. We always stop here on our way through town. There are so many slides and places to climb that even when it's busy it never feels crowded. There are public restrooms that could be cleaner and have soap. But there is a large grassy area and lots of room to run.
Great park for both toddlers and older kiddos! The play area is mostly fenced in, so they still have a couple means of escape, but the fence stops them from running too close to the road. Everything was in great shape and we had a blast!
