The conservation area is small but very pretty, a nice way to spend an afternoon. Call ahead in the heat of the summer to make sure that you can still swim in the little lake. Bring your camera. More

Fall camping is wonderful in this small conservation area. Canoed on the water over to the ruins of the mill, walked around the grounds and met lots of people, all friendly. Campfires and good times! Golf nearby too! More
