Reviews
"Great place to teach the kids some nature. And the walk is easy."
"very nice. good path, well maintained land, beautiful trees, flowers, and water"
"Lovely, quiet place for a walk and a seasonally changing view of plants and animals."
"Update: Preserve nature? During previous summers, park maintenance mowed a 4' strip on each side of the path. This year, they ravaged beneficial plants in huge swaths, and left the rest badly overgrown. The overlook is now a jungle with just a glimpse of Silver Creek. It's still a peaceful place to walk, bike and picnic, but county could do better. Nature trail is about a mile long. Picnic tables at the parking lot and two along the trail. Bathrooms available, but no running water."
"The paved trail is very short. I went around 3 times, just to feel like I got a good walk. Next time I will park near the entrance and walk in from there. There covered picnic tables throughout, bathrooms and waste cans. Each waste can around the trail has dog poop bags. Dog poo appears to be an issue from what I saw, so try to pick up your pets waste to help out the preserve staff. There is a nice lookout area at the back side of the trail overlooking a creek. The interpretive signage is very simple. The wetlands are very pretty even in January."
