Small park and historical site. Plenty of parking. The site sits along the creek and used to have a natural spring, with a stone structure around it. The structure remains but the spring does not flow anymore.

More of a historical marker as most of the Rock Garden doesn’t exist anymore or is covered up. The Rock Garden was one of the first parts of the garden and sadly got neglected and overgrown once the head gardener passed away.

I went here in the fall so the native flowering plants were rather limited, but I can imagine how it is in the spring/summer. Reason for my low review is more for Richmond and the Parks department - the nature center, grill area and bathrooms are abandoned and in disarray. What a waste!

Small waterfall that is less than a mile walk on mostly paved trails passed the Natural Bridge. Keep walking in the trail that leads you through the natural bridge and then keep walking until it ends at the falls. There are several stops along the way - a salt Peter cave, living Indian village, a water ford you can dip your feet into. An easy walk.

This place is great! Old school, plain fried chicken and sides. The chicken was cooked perfectly - juicy and not too oily. The breading was crisp and not too thick. The onion rings were good and the fried liver and gizzards were good. Only gripe is that the chicken is very plain. They serve a hot ketchup with the chicken that is bomb. They have bottles of Faygo for sale.
