    If you want to fish for anything besides bluegill you are better off somewhere else. The ENTIRE pond is covered in grass. I have lost more lures in there than I can count, and most of the access points are overgrown as well.

    Great place to visit!!! Can walk laps around the pond or fish in it! Take some time to explore the trail, you won't be disappointed by the various views! Has a little picnic area but no shelter house, so bring your own canopy for shade!

    So pretty. Good place to walk trails or bike ride. Very clean and quiet. Fishing is available. Park also holds lots of events. Check the website to see what is happening before arriving. I know they do canoe events and even had park officials teaching kids how to fish!

    The pond is nice however it is full of the seaweed like algae. Some spots you get it all over your paddles. Liked the pond but the noise from the road spoils it. Easy to launch off the shore and porta potties are on site. It was decent for a quick paddle.

    Park has been maintained very well I enjoy walking. Only negative are the geese on the pond area. Also the mess they make on the walking path.

    Great place to walk at sunset if you wanna be near water and also close to the city

    It is a little noisy around the pond because the interstate runs by it, but overall a great and beautiful place to go for a walk!

    Beautiful, well kept park. Lots of wildlife, especially birds. You can hear I 270, but the trees and foliage hide it from view. Excellent bike paths. Autumn is especially beautiful

    The great out doors!

  • 5/5 Thomas H. 5 years ago on Google
    A quieter part of Three Creeks Metro Park then the confluence trails area. A nice half mile trail circles the pond and you can fish if you want with a valid Ohio fishing license. You can still access the rest of the park through the network of trails. If you are just looking for a quieter area with a nice pond, occasion great blue herons, and wide open prairies then you should look into this part of the park as well.

  • 5/5 Kevin O. 5 years ago on Google
    This park is an excellent choice for long trails and centrally located that I can get long rides on my bike from here. Also a great place for those summer get togethers and parties!
