"This park is so pretty! I was attending a birthday party on the 12th and the weather was perfect! People were on each side of the lakes to fish and everyone was super nice! The pavilion we were under was right on the water, which was nice!! We all kept saying how we should have brought our poles to fish too! Plus a few us of absolutely loved how there was an ice cream truck so we could have a tad bit of nostalgia too! There's also a playground and barns with animals for the kids."

"Lots to do here from blanket picnics, pavilion rentals for parties, countless picnic tables and a large playground. Tons of space to play Frisbee. Plus the main attraction is a farm with many animals. They have food to feed the animals, bring quarters or they do have one change machine in the big barn. They have goats, chickens, turkeys, cows & bulls, pigs, horses and more. A couple of stocked ponds for fishing too."
