Great for fishing, picnics, children, and watching the animals wander around. The geese are actually pretty nice! We visit year round and it’s a great way to stay active close to home :)"

It's a decent sized space, it has a playground right outside the doors of the building, it has a little kitchenette as well as bathrooms that are accessible from inside and outside the building, and it has a giant field off to the side and the lake is close by."

At just around a mile around he has a blast, sniffs the (awesomely un-mowed!) natural areas and can stay on the pavement when he's too tired for off-roading anymore. (yes, tall grass is kind of like off-roading for him.. and maybe your pooch too?) What a lovely area if you're looking for a quiet, clean, nearby walk! We can't wait to see what birds will land in the pond with the coming seasons."
