"Pretty Nice place"
"Cliche, but a hidden gem."
"We had a blast when we went it's very beautiful and relaxing to walk the trails it's awesome"
"The squirrels were amazing!!!!!!! The deer talked to you and shared their recipes for bunt cake!!! Also the Mississippi River looked like the Atlantic!!! It also looked like you can drink from it!!!! Please go check it out!!! You won't regret it!!!!"
"The trail itself is wide and easy to follow, but tapers off the further you go (hope you don't mind spiderwebs when it narrows). There you'll find sinkholes and steep hillsides as you wind your way through lush vegetation under the cool canopy. A wide variety of fungus has sprung up recently due to the rains, and the clear weather that followed has brought out all the little animals that call this place home. If you participate in geocaching you just might find a surprise waiting for you alongside the trail. Turn left at the first fork and you'll be lead downhill to a small pond that circles around to the second fork. From there turn left to continue on the trail, or right to return to the entrance."
