Was better when had more water and the beavers. My dog loves walking around the pond and sitting on the deck. The water level is higher this year so plenty of geese and ducks stuck around. Frogs, turtles and I even seen a couple of deer. Pond does have some fish. There's also a few benches to sit on around the path. Could use a little clean up on the south side of the marsh. A good quite place to relax.

Nice little park for the neighborhood it stinks like sewage and the trail dumps you onto city streets it does not go all the way around the stinky pond with old tires and garbage.

This wetland park consists of a pond and a walking path around a wetland. It is a good place for a walk as there are a variety of plants and wildlife to view. The walking path has five entry points from the surrounding neighborhood. There are plenty of benches along the path and some areas are shaded. Unfortunately there was some garbage and graffiti when I attended, but with a little more care this spot could be an oasis. Special features: Wildlife Walk out dock Pond Play equipment: None Amenities: Parking: street On-site water: no On-site bathroom: no

Not much going on here, there is a trail that’s accessible on one side but if you wanna get there from Bon Air you cross a flooded area sometimes. There are a couple benches and an area you can sit over the swampy-ish area or maybe it’s dry sometimes. Not many people very often.
