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,...Read More

Meh. I started to the right of the trail heads, labeled as Stogner Trail. The walking trail came up first, but .3 miles in the trail was so water logged and muddy I couldn’t even tell how to find the path or get around the...Read More

Very nice trails for a dog walk. We were there 1/4/22, it was a bit moist, but not muddy (it snowed the day before). The main path was flooded out (check my photos) so we took the trail over the bridge on the left. Nice...Read More

Great little park with nice open field and trails (paved and dirt) all over. I love the variety of birds. There is a covered eating area and a gorgeous butterfly garden. It is not very busy either. My favorite place for walking the dogs.

It’s a beautiful park with a unique wetlands ecosystem. The first part of the trail is pretty well-maintained, but there are certainly some low points for your feet will get muddy. The second half of the nature trail was overgrown with plants, including poison ivy,...Read More

Very nice park, we visited Jan 2025 so it was dry and no bugs and I’m not sure what it would be like wet in the summer, but in winter it was lovely. There are paved paths and wood paths with bridges, lots to explore....Read More
