This is such a lovely place to be! It's peaceful and clean. Also great for fishing. Definitely a great place to clear your head and enjoy nature. The paved walkway is a huge plus and the map in...

The walk around Ada Hayden is a nice one with some nice views. Much mosquitos in the summer but overall a great little outdoor get away for a hour or two
