Like many of the parks I visit, I stumbled upon it while researching for another park. RP has almost 300-acres, which includes the park and East Donegal's section of the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail (NRT). *Portable toilets *Boat Launch--oh how I wish I still had my kayak! *Covered Picnic Tables *Two parking lots: #1 is near the pavilion, boat launch and one end of NRT and #2 is next to NRT heading out the other direction *Benches *Historical Markers *Extremely large, grassy field to play *Nice lawn with shady trees and one lone seesaw--no other playground equipment *NRT is about 14-miles long so plenty of space to bike, walk and run. *Dogs are welcome--just clean up after them and keep them on a leash *The view of the Susquehanna River is spectacular. RP is now my favorite park in PA--so far. It has everything I need, including solitude. It's a great place to bring a picnic, watch the sunset, take a bike ride, or catch some ball. A well-planned park--great job, East Donegal Township!

All the tees and baskets remained in the same place, but they dumped loads of sand all over the park. There are sea shells in it, so unlike I originally thought, which was it was removed creek bank, I guess they trucked it in. Just odd. Only weeds grow on the sand. The park is still fine for a quick stop over lunch, but I wouldn't want to play there with others unless I was pressed for time. I should be fair and say kids might have fun finding little shells in the sand, and the renovation had nothing to do with trying to enhance the disc golf experience. The same basket in the review below is still crooked. 2022-23: Nice short course. Well kept. 2 Baskets crooked. Every other trip is usually ended short without playing through due to off leash dogs walkers. Although the dogs are always good, the people are not so bright. The dogs will chase a disc that heads their way. After that happened twice, I just leave now.

It sits in what feels like the middle of town, right next to a museum. The park comes complete with a playground and somewhat of a circular path if you want to get some laps in.

It was a nice distraction and gave me something to do until I figured out where I was going after that.

We biked from Koser Park to the Decatur Street Access in Marietta. It's a very well maintained and…read morepaved trail.  Great condition good enough for skates though we only saw mostly bikers and one skateboarder during our visit.  The trail must be relatively new because the donated benches are still in mint condition.  There are placards along the trail providing background on various subjects.  The trail offers many nice amenities. Among others, Porta-Johns are available at 4 locations and bike repairing stations at 2. The 6.5 mile trail offers good variety in terms of views and terrains. Though mostly flat and straight, there are short sections that are windy or sloppy.  There are open fields and woody areas. The trail is near the Susquehanna River and you can see the water in many sections of the trail which is great. There are even a few spots where you can gain access to the river. We crossed 2-3 small bridges and had a great view of the Shocks Mills Bridge. Around the midpoint is the River Front Park which offers a great view of the river and well maintained picnic area for large groups, and 2 vending machines! We were surprised to see a sign to Columbia when we reached Decatur Street access, our destination.  Per Google Maps the trail ended right there.  We asked a couple who just came from that direction and they said the trail doesn't go all the way and riding on public roads would be required to make the connections.   So we stuck with our plan and did not continue. Overall I'm absolutely impressed with how well the trail is maintained, all the amenities it offers, and its vicinity to the river. UPDATE: Google Maps is not to be trusted! I have since found out the trail continues 3 miles north of Koser Park access, and 4.5 miles south of the Decatur Street access. From the Decatur Street access, you can continue 2 miles of nice windy trail before having to venture out onto S Bank St in Marietta. At this point you can either cross the railroad and turn right to eventually get to Furnace Rd where the off-road trail resumes, or if you're adventurous, you can continue with the unpaved trail which will end up in the parking lot of the Chickies Rock County Park and when you come out through the tunnel you will end up with the same Furnace Rd connection to the River Trail. This gap is well worth it because the next 1.5 mile towards Columbia is such a delight to ride through. Once in Columbia, you can head back, unless you want to visit the Columbia Crossings Trails Center, in which case, you'll have to ride the sidewalks and cross busy Rt 441 twice.

The Good: *All the flowers and plants in the park are native plants. *Plaques on the trees help identify the species. *Amphitheater area for concerts and car shows. *Parking lot and street parking *Shaded picnic area *Native flower trail is gorgeous The Meh: *Port-o-potty only The Ugly: *If you have seasonal allergies, this is not the place for you. So much pollen and stuff in the air got my nose, throat and eyes in a dander. TLDR: Overall, nice little park with decent amenities but probably better for locals than out-of-town folks.
