Reviews
"Beautiful place. Serene. Very well maintained. Lots of deer."
"Great playground for kids, tennis courts, Plenty of trails to walk your dog/ hike (no elevation). If it rains it is very muddy in the trails so make sure to be prepared. Also tick / mosquito spray is recommended."
"Nice place for a relaxing scenic hike."
"Not bad. Has a few softball and baseball fields. Assuming that's where they play rec games. Fields don't seem to be groomed but might be too soon. Snack stand and real bathrooms. Big playground and tennis courts next to the fields. Pool is way in the back. No real walking trails that I noticed but I really didn't want to go into the woods and get a tick. Good amount of parking. Lots of trees in the woods that are down. There's a small grass field between the baseball field and pool where they do soccer camps. Had to go there and didn't know it was that far back."
"A truly stellar environment. Saw mama and baby turtle at rest, lots of ducks and deer. Very scenic woodland trails with bridges. High tree canopy and lovely ferns. Love this place!"
