Reviews
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoGood place for running, biking , hiking or even riding your horse. Fishing & boats for recreational purposes and a dock for a boat launch are available. I used this facility for casual mountain biking and also when I was training for marathons. Some really beautiful scenery and usually not very crowded. Small concession stand and vending machines. Clean bathrooms are a plus.
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoSuch a nice place to go for a walk. I bring my dog here often and always like to try different trails. It’s extremely big around the lake, so plenty of options for a short and long walk. It’s very clean with trash cans available every so often. I love coming here especially in the fall.
- ★★★★★over 2 years agoWe came here for a full day of fun. we started by eating at the picnic tables, which are really great with sun umbrellas, which was a real bonus. Then there was the boat ride, which was really relaxing and refreshing. we really enjoyed the ride. Then we did the bike trail of wow how fun to go biking with the whole family it was a blast! So, from eating to boating to biking, we ended up after all in the kids' park, which was a great ending to the daywe just had a great day here really fun thank you
