    Paved/stroller friendly trail! Very clean. Two parking lots. Both have picnic pavilions and restroom. Very pretty scenery!

    This local park is a gem. We love it here, a peaceful serene area with walk off trails along Hickory Creek.

    Nice paved biking trails. There is also a narrow non-paved hiking trail that goes right along the creek. The way I accessed it was to go to the far lot and as the path goes down toward the river follow it to the right and a few hundred yards in there’s a small trail on your left. Take that about another hundred yards or so to the creek and you’ll access the creekside trail.

    Well maintained preserve with decent scenery. There is a long path that walks all the way down to Rt 30 which is great for exercise. Sadly there isn't enough wildlife or scenic waters for photography but it's still nice.

    Beautiful. Great place to take a break and walk through some open field. Maybe take a lunch break. They have bathrooms, similar to Port o John's.
