We come with our daughter a few times a week to walk around the pond, sit and toss pebbles in, or explore the trails. She loves it. Beautiful park. Always friendly folk there; many of them with their dogs. AND a great place to go for a run.

Beautiful hiking trails and lakes. The hiking trails are all different lengths, so theres pretty much guaranteed to be something for everyone. There are also several places to fish, and there are always animals to look at

A beautiful Summit County Metro Park that offers a bunch of different amenities to include restrooms. Running trails are a highlight of this park and the nature here is definitely serene with plenty of trees and water. I would certainly recommend a visit, especially for hiking or running. As a note, fishing is permitted but only for those under 15 years of age.

Its a great place for walking for adults. However fishing is restricted to o ly 15yrs and younger. So trail walking is best for those older than 15. It was a nice park.

My kids look forward to the trout stockings every year. The lake is easily accessible after a short hike down a hill from the parking lot. Every year we see peregrine falcons and osprey taking Rainbow Trout out of the lake. It is a amazing sight to see. The warmer weather tends to make the trout harder to catch but dont let that dissuade you from trying.

This park offers free fishing for children from 2-15 yrs old. This pond is stock by our military forces with rainbow trout, large mouth bass , bluegill and catfish. This park opens every year close to to first day of spring. The first week of fishing youll catch many trout, they live in cooler waters and the waters very cool around the end of March. Theres fishing tournaments with trophies as the reward.

A fantastic smaller hiking trail full of small spots to explore. For enclosing such a small area, it has a lot to offer. Lots of wildlife as well. Unfortunately, fishing here is limited to children. Most of the trails are also static flat terrain most the way through. Other than that it is a great hiking trail that I would recommend to anyone
