I didn't take any photos of this place. It wasn't terrible, but the reservoir was stagnant (it's mid-July). The dam was cool to check out. There's a few walking trails, but we didn't venture far, just around the reservoir.
The highlight of this park is “turtle bridge,” as named by my children. The geese, turtles, and muskrats are fun to observe! The playgrounds could really use some cleaning and updating. Also had some creepy encounters when I went alone with kids, so now I always bring backup and make sure that I am super aware of my surroundings.
This is a good spot to take little kids fishing, however the lake level was a little low and there was a lot of trash. There is a very big dog park and a small skate park here as well.
My grand daughters really enjoyed feeding the geese. They had their first ice cream truck experience. 🚚
We went mainly to feed the ducks (they have food there for them). They also have a couple of small playgrounds, a trail around the lake, picnic shelters, and some really incredible trees. There was a ton of poison ivy along the side of the trail, but none on the actual trail. It looked like there was once another trail through the woods, but it hasn't been kept up. Overall a nice place to spend some time outside.
Easy parking. Normally not very crowded. There is a machine for $0.25 you can get food for the ducks and geese. Some will even eat out of your hand. Park is mostly clean and as usual be aware of your surroundings and have fun.
