Reviews
"Wonderful and quiet place to walk in the woods, especially in fall when all the bigleaf magnolia leaves are covering the ground. They are so big and lovely!"
"Even this late into the year, the birdsong can be heard so vibrantly. I would have stayed longer, had I recalls to bring along the insect repellant..."
"I went early in the morning and it was very peaceful. One other car there at the time. There are atleast 4 parking spots. Possibly others. Has a large handicap Porta potty there. Have a separate area for changing clothes too. Hiking and mountain biking. Dog walking. Next to a golf course. Also close to waste water treatment plant but smell that day not very noticeable. Don't know about other times."
"Great park for a trail run hike or biking...noticeably better in the fall and spring the overrun with Poison ivy and mosquitoes in the summer. Lots of little signs telling what plants are in this type parcel of land and slightly technical trails with lots of hills"
"Finally got to visit this new park to see the awesome work that both First Flight Bicycles and the Tarheel Trailblazers did to build a new 2.6 mile phase one MTB trail. Great job and good scenery, especially of the rare Bigleaf Magnolia Trees. There is a permanently installed bike repair station, changing room, and a porta potty on site as well. Looks like someone abandoned their pet fido dog. Sad! Otherwise, it was a good visit and I'll be back."
