This park is huge and it has everything you need. It’s has tennis courts, basketball courts ball courts, volleyball area, slides, baseball field, and a ton of open space to do other sports like soccer. When it’s nice out this park is always busy and super clean.

I’ve run a few laps already at McCollum Park, and as a running-enthusiast I love returning there. The 1.2-mile paved loop trail is smooth and well-kept, perfect for both sprints and steady distance pacing. I also appreciate the outdoor fitness stations and shaded rest benches along the route. What I liked most was how varied and functional the park is—even mid-run I pass tennis, soccer, and courts. Highly recommend McCollum Park for anyone wanting a scenic, all-purpose running spot!

The asphalt track meanders through a wide variety of mid sized trees with an occasional bench. The entire park is flat as a pool table with a park employee living in a house on the grounds. Its a very big park with every sport available. Lots of people taking advantage of the facilities. Got buzzed by an electric motorcycle going way too fast while hiking on the track. He was enjoying himself.
