Confirmed from Vaughn Road 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.
Easygoing city park with tennis courts, jogging trails, a playground & picnic areas.
What runners say about Vaughn Road Park
Very nice, roomie, lots of people but still room for kids to play, along with walking/ jogging around the park ...just a very nice place to find peace and relaxation 😊
This is a great big park that is centrally located and has space for everything. There is enough space for football games, soccer games, ultimate Frisbee and medieval games all at the same time. There is a long walking path and play equipment for small children.
This is a large park that has lots of playground equipment and wonderful places for children to play. It also has a great walking trail around the outside. The only thing that is missing is a smaller fenced-in area as a dog park.
This place contains a great walking trail for those who are looking to get into shape. There are also several playgrounds for the children. The playgrounds are full of entertainment and they seem very safe. My child really enjoyed the playground.
