    This really exceeded our expectations. We were so impressed with how manicured and beautiful the property is before even entering the park.

    Rock Solid

    This is a great place to hike and explore. The rock formations are impressive and the hike serene. Trails are well marked and interpretive. This is a great place for a casual hike or family exploration. We are thrilled we make the trek.

    A must see hidden treasure

    This place is a must see! Bathrooms are available before you enter the park. There is a small entrance fee. The path has lots of roots, rocks, mud, and some climbing. I would not recommend this for anyone who has trouble walking or climbing stairs....More

    First Time Visit

    Well worth the Drive. Get your kids into Nature, even if they act like they don't like it. Remember Parents don't frame pictures of their kids playing video games.

    Our trail is an easy to moderate hiking trail. There are short stretches with a 20-30% grade and embedded roots and rocks mean that it is not wheelchair/stroller accessible. If a person can walk on uneven ground for a mile... More

    Pets are not allowed. Due to tight crevices and areas that have drop-offs, it’s a safety concern. They are pet-lovers and want our fur-babies safe!

    There is a rest room available, some area for a blanket picnic and I think a swing set for the kids. It is open from the middle of May to middle of October.
