November 28, 2020November 1, 2020A lovely walk through nature. Beautiful trails that each offer something different; I’ll be back!
October 25, 2020October 15, 2020September 17, 2020September 15, 2020September 9, 2020September 5, 2020I’m a beginner hiker. It was a very easy trail to follow. The lake was pretty disappointing cause it was so nasty. The waterfall was nice to see but I would love to come and see it after a rainfall, as there was not much water “falling”. It was about 1.5 miles and took me about 45 min, even with stopping. I would definitely hike this trail again.
September 5, 2020Trail was nice. Didn’t walk the entire loop because the waterfall was dry. Figured I would come back after some rain.
September 4, 2020great trail. lots of twists and turns. top notch.
August 22, 2020Serve rap different type of ground to walk. Bark, bridges, plank, asphalt, gravel, some dirt
August 22, 2020August 19, 2020The trail was great but wear bug spray, mosquitos are bad if you stop by the water. I would do this trail again.
August 16, 2020nice flat trail. Sub and shade.
August 16, 2020So super beautiful and amazing pond and lily pads with a surprise waterfall! You can see fish in the water if you have sunglasses and the trail is largely mulched, plank board or rocks and we managed easily without our all-terrain double stroller. Great family adventure! Wher nature center currently closed and they do ask for 3.50$ donation with a pay drop box our front of center.
