Loved my adventure here! Hints: If you are going to take the more challenging trail, please wear good shoes with excellent grip and take water. There are some significantly steep, narrow, and even eroded areas. The easier trail is nice to take in the way back. Watch and listen for deer. I had a huge buck run right in front of me while I was paused for water (I could have touched him if my arm had been extended). Beautiful for sure, but also a "holy..." moment 😁

This park is outstanding!! I saw this park on Facebook. I have a 15 year old boy and a 10 year old girl. This park is beautiful and great for all ages. The big slide was broken when we went there. I hope they fix it soon!!

This was a wonderful off-leash dog area! Was a large fenced grassy area with covered seating for the humans. Big open space for the dogs to run and play! According to another patron there (who goes their regularly), they keep the other side, which was equally as large, fenced off and till the side we were on needs to get rejuvenated. Rejuvenated. Then all the dogs go to the other side while the grass and play areas get to recover. That's a great idea!

I really like this park. It has multiple slides and lots of areas to climb that my kids enjoy. The bottom of the park is wood chips. There is a set of swings. My favorite part is that there’s lots of seating. Two small picnic areas and one big gazebo as well as benches all around.
