This trail takes you to or around Lake Waterford, a small fishing.
Tried to do this trail in September but couldn’t make it all the way around due to it being overgrown. Also tried fishing the lake and didn’t get one bite.
It took us a minute to find the trail. There are no visible markers indicating where the trail starts. FYI, it's behind the playground. It is quite obvious the trail isn't used much. We didn't finish the route since it was so overgrown.
I love spending time with the family here. one of my favorite places. beautiful lake, fishing, huge playground with tables n grills, plus nice trail
even though it's a small park I love it. I grew up here. there are pavilions for special occasions, we had our wedding here.
It's a great short hike. My son and I come here often. We see lots of turtles and bull frogs.
Nice hike. Date: 2/8/2016
The park itself is great,, but the trails are confusing and not well marked at all. They used a color coded trail system, but the colors randomly start, stop, change directions, and we found ourselves just ignoring them after a while. Fortunately it is a small park and there was no chance of getting lost. Also you are not able to go around the lake, as half of it is lined with residential housing. But other than that it is a nice park and close to home.
The distance on the app says that it is only 0.79 miles long but if you go all the way around the lake it is definitely 2 miles or more!!
bit overgrown and very short length of trail. Great scenery though
We walked the main portion of this trail and enjoyed the nice views of the lake. The lake is mainly used for fishing and has numerous piers and waterholes along the way. This could be hiked as an approximately 2 mile loop around the lake but the backside trail is a bit overgrown.
