Reviews
"I love this park. The creek is beautiful, and the runs are really neat. There's a small ruin fairly close to the parking lot that's pretty easy to get to. The runs in the pic are not an easy hike, but worth it. There's also a small pond in the park"
"This was a quick walk to the ruins and the terrain was kind of bumpy but very shaded. I really enjoyed this walk down to the ruins and the creek. Very relaxing once you get down there."
"Free parking but very popular so get here early. Paper Mill ruins are a pretty cool sight. I couldn't remember if the easy trail to the left or right lol I hiked the whole trail. FOLLOW @slickhiking on all social media"
"Parking isn't free and make sure you don't leave anything in plain sight in the car. It is a interesting place especially the river. It takes about a couple of hours to get tired of the site but the trails are very well marked."
"Saw some old building ruins from Paper Mill Rd so we decided to check it out. Parking was easy. Walk to the ruins was not that far. The trails were cleared of debri and easy to follow. When u get to the ruins it is beautiful and right on the river. Plenty of rocks to climb on and a small waterfall. Great place."
