👍👍 A few points. I went as a neighbor and a hospital employee and I am Jewish. That said, the place is beautiful. They both put a lot into it and it shows. While it is free to see it, any donations are sent to SIUH. Shows you where these people's heart are. Special people. I can't comment on any reli...

😠 This place is not open to the public. Went here once while checking out the conference house near by and some angry troll came out of this house yelling at me saying the biddle house was private property and to leave. Even though it shows a parks department sign in the front of it. Anyway never went...

On most of the trails it is easy to find yourself hoping to stay on it, but it is an enjoyable, peaceful place with many deer and different species of birds an...
