Confirmed from Wild Rose 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.
Clean and quiet open space with a river and dam views, plus picnic tables.

“Beautiful and quiet, my favorite place to go when I want to relax.”
Love to to to this park it's free had picnic tables public (clean) restrooms, and charcoal BBQs built into the park. Has always been peaceful , ppl have made trails to walk to the water but even just standing about you can see the dam, river and beautiful scenery plus you can always listen to the water rushing.
Spacious park with huge trees and some garden plantings. Picnic tables, a gazebo, and a path to the river with views of the dam from the parking lot. We had a picnic!
