What an amazing place! There is lots of wildlife here. I saw deer, squirrels, chipmunks, birds, and more! And the nature center is one of the best I've been to. Lots of taxidermy as well as live animals to look at. The trails are also worth going on as they immerse you into the forest. Very cool!

Great place for nature and wildlife fanatics, as well as history buffs! The trails are awesome, winding through wetlands, dense forests, and fields of wildflowers. There's a historical house and conservatory building on-site, with lots of educational stations that highlight the history of the area and the wildlife within the park. There are clean restrooms, tons of parking, and even picnic shelters. Great place to spend the day!

The trails here are beautiful. As the seasons change, so does the look and feel of the grounds. The Canada Geese and their goslings in the spring, the frogs sounding at sunset in the summer, the changing leaves in the autumn, and the stark light and bare branches of winter. And of course, the sight and calls of birds year round.

Tinker Nature Park offers well-maintained trails, a quiet atmosphere, and a variety of wildlife, making it a great spot for walking, birdwatching, and family visits. The park includes a small nature center (open limited hours), picnic areas, and an accessible paved loop trail (~1.2 miles).

This place is a true gem! I absolutely love a trail / hike with a good boardwalk and this place delivered multiple times! There are woods, ponds, meadows, and swampland to explore and hike through. There is so much wildlife in this park. I can't wait to go back.
