Nice wedding and event venue. A bit of a drive from HSV. Scenic location and well maintained. Clean, nice, and also has friendly staff.
Great place for a walk or bike ride. There is a dog park near the park that is nice.
Greenway is easily accessible for people w special needs. Easy parking and transitions to the walking path.
There are a few paths to the creek along the greenway and some are deep enough that kids swims and play in the water.
Watch for wildlife and take a bottle of water and bug spray in the summer months.
Nice museum to visit w different exhibits during the year. My favorite visit was around the year 2000 when they hosted a traveling Holocaust exhibit. The presentation was great.
I visited recently again on July 4th and enjoyed it. It was odd that they had a surprising number of security staff and I noted a few times they instructed ppl to stay back from exhibits. It seemed odd and I noticed the visitors didn’t seem to be touching the exhibit or causing any disturbance. Maybe someone signed in as Nicholas Cage and they thought a theft may be occurring?? In all seriousness, the security seemed unwarranted.
On Monday evenings in the summer, they host public concerts on the open lawn. Arrive an hour or more early to get a close seat under a tree. Bring a blanket, chairs, picnic basket or buy food from the mobile food vendors.
Annual memberships aren’t too expensive and they offer free visit days, plus $5 after 5:00 days.
Nice place to walk. Great for dog walking. Nice creek beside the paved walkway.
During hard rains the creek will cover the walkway.
Benches to rest. Garbage cans along the way for trash or dog waste.
