Reviews
"Lovely park with fun short hiking trails, and a viewing tower. First trails (near entrance) explore the pond with ups and downs. "Sacred Hills" are hills, fun for kids of all ages! New tower over lake is a biggish gradual climb. The park is rehabbed mining area and quite scenic."

"Nice park, lots to do, hiking, canoe/kayak, fishing, camping and biking."
"This is a really cool county park with a lot of area to walk around. Has views of a lake filled with alligators, birds, turtles, etc. Has restrooms and places to public and grill. Best part are definitely the trees with crazy root structure exposed"
"Great fishing.....if you have a boat!! Not so much for bank fishing"
