Confirmed from Willow Pass Community 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.
40-acre strip with 8 tennis courts, 6 softball fields & a batting cage, plus a community center.
What runners say about Willow Pass Community Park
Spacious and green. My favorite time to visit is early morning just as sun comes up... so pretty. A nice park for dog walkers, duck feeding, baseball games and batting cages, tennis courts and playground activities. For me though, it is Pixie Playland that fills my heart with such fond memories from childhood.
Softball field,tennis courts,batting cages,plenty of space for dog walking.and you can catch fish in that pond.
I've been around this town for ever and this is a highlight for shore only problem here is most people forget to walk there dogs with leashes don't get me wrong I love my doggie buddies but I've seen a couple furry 4 legged unleashed go after and chomp a few geese's but it's a peaceful park the only park in this town…
Open for walk and looks pet friendly. Parking looks pretty big. Couple of baseball fields, soccer, tennis and pickleball. Not really the place you come for picnic but for walking ( big enough for a 15 min walk) and watching sports. Safe neighborhood. Right next to Pixieland - tons of fun for ( little) kids.
