C. L. SutherlandMay 30, 2017Cycling, running and walking. Not bad in the late afternoon as the tree coverage is dense over most paved trails. Herds of deer throughout the day so do obey the speed limit.

Great place for running, hiking, bike riding & dog walking. Park has a couple of soccer fields & baseball fields. Be on the lookout for wildlife!

Miriam HernandezJuly 30, 2013I love everything about this park! There's lots to do! Only complaint I have is the dog park. We have 3 small Yorkies and wish they could play in the park but their is way to many big dogs!Upvote4Downvote- Ashley RiosAugust 10, 2016This park is huge and there are a lot of trails either on the track or man made. There is a ton of space and if you are a Geocacher this is a great place to do so.Upvote1Downvote
This park is so huge and there's bound to be something you like to do here! I only wish there was some water or lake with jet-skiing or paddle-boating. Nice, friendly dog park, though!Upvote3Downvote
David AOctober 3, 2015The Blue loop is a nice meandering cross-country path. Fairly well marked-> look for white posts with blue stripe. Got slightly lost on back side. Parking lot at trailhead filling up at 9:30 SaturdayUpvoteDownvote

Riding on the paved path in the park minding my own business and came across a 3' rattle snake right in the middle of the path. There not just in the woods anymore. Be alert!UpvoteDownvote
