Terrible trail maintenance. Lots of dead falls and widow makers hanging over the trail. Office says it opens at 8 but doors where still locked at 830 and did not have information on hand that should have been basic to haves. Illegal trash dump 50 ft from the parking lot by the community building. Do better

Absolutely beautiful state park. One of the many parks I miss from Louisville. Pickleball courts are fun but get packed during the warmer months. Enjoyable for all age groups.
Lovely park with many trails in the woods and by a beautiful wetland.
