Very nice loop around the lake, just shy of a mile. Well maintained. Lots of wildlife, various types of birds, turtles, and squirrels. Saw some people going to fish. They have bathrooms, benches located all around the lake, and a picnic area. There’s lots of parking too.

I am so grateful to have found this little spot. It’s a beautiful place to walk with the kids and enjoy a nice picnic in the evening when it’s cool. There are several wood picnic benches scattered around the lake and a bench or two just for sitting. I see mostly people fishing here and some people on bikes. I can’t attest to how great it is though as I don’t fish. There are ducks that the kids enjoy watching. It’s very clean. I have went at least ten times now and have yet to see any trash. One thing we really enjoy in the late evenings are the fireflies!! There are a lot of them here in the forested areas and we really like watching them. It’s also a lovely place to watch the colors of the sunset across the clouds. It’s not usually very busy the times I have came. Highly would recommend it for a nice walk and family time. One thing to note - I have not seen a restroom.

Use to go here as a kid and with my wife when we first got married a lot. Looking it wondering it was still open would love to go back such a good place and so many good memories. The old man that use to own this place was one of the good ones nicest man ever.
