    It sits on top of a steep hill. The view is beautiful. My husband and I loved going there for the peace and quiet and the drive out there is a great scenic drive.

    It is a spot to park and grill/picnic next to the river. No trails.

    Should not have state park signs for a privately owned park 🤬 there are no trespassing signs everywhere and roads are blocked with private property signs...BS
