    Great spot for picnicking and a shady stroll along the stream with our dog.There are full restrooms, parking and you can reserve the ramada pavillions for group gatherings. The waterfall and bridge, a short walk from the parking area, are highlights.

    A beautiful place for a walk. Been here since I could remember. Has an open air path along the water that wraps around. Or you could cross the street and enjoy some shade and trees that follow the water a bit before touring around. Allows dogs on leash and under control.

    Beautiful place! Waterfalls, trees, railroad tracks, what more could you ask for? The scenery is amazing! The crisp, clean air is exhilarating. Definitely worth the trip!

    It's not a big park but very charming. I loved it. Perfect for a walk with someone special.

    Thriving duck population. Enjoyed walking along & sitting on one of two of the many benches. We opted not to try the trail because of our shoes but we certainly know where to find it for the future.

    Such an incredible spot to go for a day trip. Waterfall, geese, flowers, and fishing. There's also benches and tables for picnics.

    Great park with historic mill, great manmade waterfall, and plenty of benches. This park is very clean and free of litter and relaxing for the soul.

    This place is beautiful if you need a quiet place to go to and just get your thoughts out in the air just sit by the water falls it is so calming.

    I visit this place almost weekly for recreational walking and for a time, I attempted to fish. Alas, I am not a good enough angler to fish with natural bait, let alone the artificial bait required on this Class A trout stream. Regardless, this park is beautiful. I know some folks may see the tall weeds near the water's edge and think that it is unsightly, but please know that this is for the betterment of the waterways. The environmental experts have said that having tall weeds near the water's edge helps with filtration of all kinds of unnatural items from the already compromised water. The dam is already such an impediment on the waterway that I don't want to see it taken away, so I'd rather see the weeds and get to keep my beloved dam. This park is a restored WPA beauty. Do marvel at the beautiful dam and imagine that upstream from that dam was actually a stream-fed swimming pool that people used to use. It apparently filled up with silt so quickly that they abandoned its use, but that's why the waterway is so bowled above the dam - there's concrete below in some areas. In general, the city does a great job keeping up with the park. Also, please, if you're going to feed the fish or the ducks/geese, don't feed them bread. Buy duck feed. (Tractor Supply, 15 lbs. for $19.99). Bread is harmful to the birds. Enjoy the park. Please don't litter.

    The path along the water is short but I came across a big ol bird here recently so that makes it a 5 star park

    Cool little park. Enjoyed walking along the creek. Dam and waterfall are beautiful. Thinking about coming back with my waders and fly fishing rod.

    It's a clean and welcoming park, there is parking across the street and also at the end of the road into the park but limited spaces. There are picnic tables and benches throughout, calming water from the falls. Clean restrooms Great place to chill out or take a walk.
