Reviews
"Whole front entrance of the trail was littered in dog feces. I spotted at minimum 10-12 piles of feces throughout walking the trail, at least 6 piles by the entrance alone. The trails themselves were fine, what irks me is the blatant disregard that dog-owners have for people that would like to enjoy hiking the trails. There was even a piping hot pile of dung right below the trail map. Just pick up your dog droppings, it’s THAT easy."
"The entire trail is just under 3 miles. ( About 3.75 miles) About 70% shaded. Decently market but you must pay attention to the signs."
"It was an ok trail to take a walk but map and signs not very helpful so we got a little lost, hot and tired. Fortunately we did see some butterflies and gopher tortoise along the trail so that was nice. The trail is a bit uneven with roots and rocks so be careful here"
"Quite, clean, and just so relaxing. I really felt like this place is a little piece of utopia. The trails were well marked for a nature preserve. Usually these places are geared for for the wildlife, and make no mistake it was but it seemed the park Rangers balanced preserving the natural environment and making it people friendly. I was glad to see the picnic area was also clean. My dog loved it too!!!"
"Love this place!! Gorgeous! Two trails essentially, the main "red" trail is about 3 miles. A good mixture of open spaces with cascading branches and flowing branches. Symmetric rows of trees. Wooded area have a few muddy spots and a few puddles. Luckily there are ways around these (logs, man made paths). Definitely recommend. Check out my photos. There are some more difficult areas toward the end of the red trail but nothing major. 5 stars"
