There are choices to walk/jog the trails, barbecue, picnic, fishing, exercising, walk your dog, watch the sun set 😀 , bird watch and even swimming. The staff maintenance is 👍🏾 on point.

“It's great for group picnic, reunions or even a small walk in the park. You have a grill that you can use once you rent the space and a play area for kids...the pool has been closed since covid but hopefull it will reopen for the summer 2023”
