Great park that used to be a golf course. Old cart paths are the main walking trail that winds around a pair of ponds and has a decent amount of elevation changes to get your heart rate up. There are dog bags, trash cans, and even picnic tables along the route if you want to take a break.
In my experience I have met several nice people, a few runners, and a biker or two and everyone was very respectful of space and kind enough to say hello.
It's kind of cool to see the old sand traps, greens, and tees along the way. It is like having a golf course for an actual good use, walking and a kind passing of other people!
Looking at the satellite photos, there are several paths that are off of the marked path, but if you're alone, I would advise against venturing off the beaten path, so to say. I took 2 laps, one on the marked path (the tighter path like a paperclip) and an alternative route (wider and has a backtrack), the backtrack is because I saw someone leave the path and enter the wooded area, I went back to find where they went, and what they were up to, but finally decided not to inquire further.
If you stay on the main path, the parking area is easy to get back to if you don't want to do the whole path, or if you need to use the restroom which is a Porta potty, but hey, in a pinch, it works fine.
Enter slowly if you are driving a car, there is a bit of a ledge upon entering, or you can park at the lot closer to the fire department, and avoid that.
There are dog bags available, and have always been stocked when I've been there, and trash cans in so many locations that you won't have to carry a full bag very far.
Great park, 4 stars only because I wouldn't recommend leaving the marked path, but all of my experiences have been really good.
The path does say 1.6 miles, but in my visits, it says 1.4 to 1.5 miles, but that may be from the center of the path.
I saw the review about the sand spurs, and yes, I see the plant that would be an issue later in the summer. That plant dries out and does cause an issue, but usually that should only be an issue for a few weeks.
This is a park to enjoy!

Really enjoyed my walk here. Quiet, peaceful, and a pretty long loop. I like the signs telling you the distance you've reached.

I took my dogs walking and they both kept getting very sharp burrs in their paws and it was painful for them for me to get out and they hurt my fingers as well. Very nasty

This is a great trail for able-bodied individuals and those with a good jogging stroller. It's beautiful with plenty of parking. Great for walking, running or taking your dog. The trail is paved asphalt, but it is very worn and broken in many spots. It would be too difficult to push a wheelchair, and a struggle at spots with a standard umbrella stroller.

Great place for an early morning walk or jog. Family and pet friendly. Less populated than the nearby park, and it has nice hills and scenery.

My husband & I love it here. We do our 5k walks here and it has plenty of space to walk on the trail. Great views. They have portable bathrooms. 2 parking lots. It's now one of our favorite parks to walk.

This is a great place to go for a walk, run, walk your dog and play with your family. The paths are marked and they have plastic bags and trash cans all around the park to pick up your dog's business. It has wheel chair access and two parking lots. You can find public restrooms as well. I love visiting this walking trail!

I really enjoyed this walking trail. It had natural incline and declines which is a calorie booster and made my legs burn. Plus, it felt easier to get 3 miles in since 1 lap is ~ 1.5 miles, making it feel quicker to workout lol
