Beautiful nature pathways. Never very crowded. Also has picnic area and open field.

This park has a lot of hiking variety from paved roads to wooded trails. Our kids have loved coming here since they were just learning to walk. Now that they are a bit older they love to race each other down the paths. During the warmer months we've seen lizards, snapping turtles, herons, tadpoles, and even a family of deer.

Not a bad spot for a walk with your pup. Just watch out for the copperheads in this area. We saw 2 on our adventure.

Beautiful natural area with a nice greenway and trail system. Trails circle a well established marshy pond area with a great diversity of birds and wildlife. Had a close encounter with a Great Blue Heron and saw Yellow Crowned Night Herons.

First time visiting the park. The park views are more than enough to take in. The trails are nice and leveled which makes walking them a lot easier, and there’s so much to see. The scent from the plants and flowers made the trails refreshing, and I saw more birds in this park than any I’ve been in. I was in the area and decided to visit, and though it’s not far from where I stay, I wouldn’t mind visiting again. The park is so big that it doesn’t feel crowded even with others walking the trails as well. Great place to bird watch, especially if you’re into photography, or just get a good walk in.
