Shaffner Park

My mother and I.went for the walking Trail. It is very short so we walked up and down several times. We enjoyed crossing the bridge and looking at the creek. There is a playground and tennis courts near to the parking area but we did not use either.

We like this park because my husband can play soccer while my son kicks the ball on the other side of the field or plays on the playground. There's no benches though, I brought a chair. Also the soccer nets are pretty beat up but better than nothing. The water fountain wasn't working.

Paved trail runs along the creek with excellent access to numerous pools. Need to visit during warmer months for what type of fish present. Lots of birds! Excellent place for bird watching. Lush vines covering trees seems to provide lots of birds shelter.

There is a nice little playground for kids to play at. Big multi purpose open fields with soccer goals already in place. There is a nearby creek and you can hop on the Greenway for a walk or run.

Shaffner Park has been one of my go-to walking places for years! I love the paved walking trail directly across the road from the playground/tennis court area and walk it just about daily. This cute little playground area has a concrete wall separating it from the parking lot to keep little ones safe and mulch to cushion any falls. There's a fenced-in tennis court that is also used for pickleball next to the restrooms, which are typically clean and always open. There's also a large open field that I believe has a soccer goal(don't hold me to that). The park has plenty of parking, and if by chance the parking lot is full, there is a little road next to the open field with more parking. People bring their dogs all the time to walk the trail as well. You can make your walk on a loop, over the bridge, and make your way that way, or you can stay straight and go all the way down to the sign and back out to the road where you first came in. There are a few benches where you can sit and rest if need be. The best part? Everyone is amazing, friendly, says hello, and always has a smile back for you.
