Arboretum Park
Arboretum Park in Canton, OH is a pleasant local park known for its disc golf course, which attracts both beginners and experienced players. While it doesn’t live up to the typical arboretum expectations of extensive botanical diversity, it offers a nice space for walking, relaxing, and recreational activities.

Great park with plenty of space for activities. The main attraction is the disc golf course built into the park which is a local favorite.
Beautiful park for walking and relaxing. I go there once a week and play disc golf pretty easy course for beginners and pros alike.
All my favorite holes have been decimated, A real wasteland, and a shadow of its former self. Its often crowded and always soggy and smells like stagnant water. But enough about my ex girlfriend.
A Wonderful course , I highly recommend it.
Love playing disc golf here.. Not a difficult course but still a good course. Let’s hope the parks dept didn’t destroy it with the new landscaping they did over the last couple months. Not sure what they are doing there.
You’d think stepping into an arboretum would be like wandering into a botanical wonderland, right? Well, imagine the surprise when what’s billed as an arboretum turns out to be just a plain, small park. That’s exactly the letdown I felt visiting this place—expecting a rich, educational stroll among diverse plant species, only to find a few trees and some benches.
Calling it an arboretum might be a bit of a stretch. It’s more like someone put an impressive label on a regular backyard. While it’s a nice enough spot for a quick lunch or a brief escape from the hustle of daily life, it lacks the variety and educational aspects you’d expect from a true arboretum.
Here’s a tip: If you’re really looking for a botanical experience, you might want to check out larger, well-established arboretums or botanical gardens that can truly deliver a diverse and rich exploration of flora.
So, if you find yourself heading to this “arboretum,” adjust your expectations. It’s a pleasant park, no doubt, but not the botanical treasure trove you might have hoped for. Sometimes, a park is just a park—even if it calls itself something fancier!
