Mary Cummings Park

"Beautiful, well maintained trails. Wooded areas, marshy areas, open field areas. Trails are very well marked. Some parts are rugged but fairly flat. No climbing or rock scrambling was necessary in the area we hiked. Small you are here maps are at most intersections. Little arrows showing you which trails are in which direction. Ample parking."

"I just randomly showed up to this place when there were half a dozen enthusiasts flying RC place on a course there! What a place to walk, hike or dog walk. Loved the people!!!"

"Wonderful spot to hike, run, bike and dog walk. There's open fields for valley throwing and beautiful flowers and creatures everywhere. Nice groomed trails and plenty of good maps so you won't get lost. We love coming here any time of year. There's an R/C flying course and stands as well as a sitting area too."

"Beautiful wild flowers but over grown bushes on the trails.There are some nice spots but trails are narrow and you may have to walk though the bushes which are grown over trails as well. There are maps and sign boards at trail junctions."
