Darrow Road Park
Darrow Road Park is a small, scenic park offering a shaded loop trail through meadow and woodland areas, ideal for short walks and hikes. The park is dog-friendly and accessible, featuring wheelchair accessible entrances and parking. Visitors appreciate the natural setting where wildlife and native flowers can be observed, making it a pleasant spot for dogs and their owners. While it is not very large or heavily developed, it provides a peaceful nature experience near residential backyards, though some trails can be muddy and uneven after rain.

The trail is a wet muddy mess. We were very disappointed. Yes, it has rained a little recently, but not that much. We’ve been to other parks with trails that aren’t nearly as bad after rain. Some parts of the boardwalk are old and uneven in some spots. Also, we kind of knew better but some of the pictures tied to this park on google, aren’t of this park- primarily the ones with any rock formations.
It’s a great park for a small park. Don’t expect to walk super far or be able to do very much at the park, but it’s a beautiful little area. I love bringing my dog here or just going for a short walk through the woods. It is a little odd when you realize you’re walking near people’s backyards.
There a park is a nice to have thing by the roadside.
As of now it is not really spectacular. I am looking forward to seeing those native pollinator flowers bloom hopefully very soon 🔜
Two words: hidden gem. This park is easy to miss cruising down 91 (Darrow Rd.) but it is worth the hike I think. The loop trail goes through both meadow and woodlands, and one can see wildlife like butterflies and rabbits as well as stunning flowers and unique mushrooms along the path; I was skeptical just by looking at the small gravel entrance but I am so glad I went there to hike.
Nice walking park with a good shaded loop. I took my cat on a leash and he loved walking in the tall grass next to the trails. The end of the loop is not shaded and it is not a very long walk but it seems to serve its purpose.
