"It's a bit narrow and hard to see the trail with leaves on the ground. We were here late October and there some frogs on the trail which was cool. It was also raining and the trail didn't flood, some mud but still walkable. Very peaceful short walk. Worth stopping. A little hard to find. No parking lot, just side of road parking."
"Great short hike right in the heart of Ephraim. Incredibly well-preserved and there is no fee to use the trails. Year-round enjoyment for the locals and visitors. I enjoyed it on New Year's day 2023 and it was lovely."
"Nice short trail around Anderson pond with some historical signage about the site. Nice short walk. Trails are skinny but easy to follow."
"A great nature walk, a little tight at times but not straight and flat. Very pretty with two loops for 1.5 miles if you do both"
"Beautiful spring hike! The Peepers were so loud!"
