Reviews
"W. W. Knight Nature Preserve is a pleasant, not overly large nature area that has open air walking around two ponds, one of which allows children under the age of 18 years to fish, with an adult. You can also stroll through the woodland area on well maintained boardwalks with bench seating along the way. After your walk or run you can cool off in the air-conditioned nature center while sitting at the window on wildlife. You will also find modern facilities available here. Overall, this Preserve us a pleasant spot for a quick break on the edge of town. BTW, you don't need tickets to get in."
"Beautiful preserve! We rented the lodge for my niece's baby shower. Nice to have a refrigerator to keep items cold. We loved the big windows too! Beautiful to look out on fall day. We set up everything ourselves, tables and chairs which was fine. Some chairs are broken and still had crumbs from previous event. Bathroom was not in cleanest shape. Otherwise nice spacious room. Fire place was cozy."
"My daughter and I come fish and walk round and roller skating in the parking lot we love going there it's super peaceful and nature we love it I take my nieces and newpews they love it there too."
"We went to the W. W. Knight Preserve out of curiosity. It was totally amazing. The library has so very much wildlife information. The educational rooms for children are needed in today's 'Hustle Bustle' world. We took a short nature walk and enjoyed every minute. What a treasure!"
