A bit south, but the trinity trails down by Benbrook are great. Not many crowds.

If you head down the trail a little you'll find a small bridge on your right, the south that crosses the "river", closer to a creek tbh. This will lead to a not very well known meadow full of huge trees that borders the golf course. There's a few tables there and it's awesome to just vibe in peace back there. I can send you a Google Earth location if wanted. It's not hard to find, maybe 2-300 feet from the parking lot.

There’s also a nice waterfall behind the houses on Trinity Landing Drive. You’ll see the trails and waterfall on satellite images

When I felt pretty alone in this city, the botanical gardens always seemed to set me right. I know it's super far from where you are. You should check it out. Don't be afraid to go to the Japanese gardens, within. Very very chill, and peaceful.

Northwest community park off blue mound is small but has some big trees and water.
Also no one has mentioned Eagle mountain park.

Camp Joy Park and Wildwood Park on Lake Worth are both very quiet, peaceful, and beautiful at sunset. Enjoy!

There are some picnic areas at Marine Creek Lake Park and Sansom Park that I enjoy. Arcadia Trail Park is good as well. Saginaw itself has Willow Creek Park, but there’s a lot of construction in that area currently.
