About the Park:

Over 4.5 miles of trails weave through the park, and there are interpretive education panels on wildlife and vegetation throughout. Viewing blinds have been established at various locations near the edge of several ponds to further enhance the visitor's experience. A floating boardwalk crossing the northern end of the lake allows visitors a close up view of the fish and ducks on the water. The preserve also includes restroom facilities, picnic ramadas, and a play area.

• Dogs are Welcome! Keep dogs on a maximum of a six foot leash at all times to ensure dogs cannot approach wildlife, for the safety of all.
