I cannot believe you have to pay to get in here! The trails are nice and offer a great running/walking scenery. The pool is nice if you want to take a dip. The mosquitos are bad, but it is nice to see deer in the fall. The park is really a great retreat!
Pros: scenic, pool, hours
Cons: mosquitos, price

Cons: bugs
