  • I love this place. Usually I take my pup for a walk here and then head over to the Burton Conservatory not far away as they are both short trails you can get through in a little over half an hour. Very quiet, you'd never believe your in the middle of a subdivision. My dog loves jumping into the small creek and generally running around. It's well maintained and properly cared for. Unfortunately the summer storms we had knocked down some trees towards the end of the trail but you can tell crews are working to clean it up.
  • Well graded and gravelled trail suitable for an easy stroll over a hike. Some water access. Easy to spend 30 minutes here.
  • Nice to have a great green space area with well maintained trails. Right now there are a lot of trees marked for takedown, likely dead ash or elm. It's good they're maintaining it, but the red spray paint markings do take away from the otherwise serene area.
  • Great place to take kids in the winter for sledding
  • Beautiful little conservation area. Well maintained walk. A lttle dry at the moment so creek do not have running water but must be beautiful when creek is running.
