Paths are well maintained and lots of useful signs to learn about the area.
Beautiful park tucked away with walking paths throughout
Nice place to go to relax after exercising on the trails
Beautiful location, decent parking, friendly people, nice canoe launch
Nice place after riding the salt creek trail to sit on the dock and be surrounded with native prairie plants. Relax, then head back on the path.
I biked there on a warm day with a friend. It feels secluded though its just off the Salt crek trail.
It is a nice place to relax. Fishing is allowed but it is catch and release
Nice quiet place. Im usually there in the morning cycling and its not very busy.
Nice place for lunch and a great entry to one of my favorite trails
Great little park to walk, bike run around in the gravel, cute pond to sit and reflect, and theres parking !!
I was hoping for more trails but it was definitely beautiful and worth the trip.
Its beautiful park, great for fishing, picnics and hiking.
Fun catch and release!!!
Small but nice

Really nice place to go for a hike in one of the many trails. There is a kayak launching deck.
Great place to rest, also discover the natural life that grows in that area

2020-08-01Short trail around a pond with fishing and a lot of bird traffic. The parking lot is also a good location to hop on the Salt Creek Trail, or to launch your canoe/kayak.

2018-07-27This place is so peaceful. There is a path way that you may walk which takes you around the sanctuary. Not noisy at all. There is historic information along the path that tells you about the santutay.
