👍👍 Hallock State Park Preserve was a nice hike. Normally there is an $8 parking fee but it is waived during the winter season. There are two parking lots - one at the entrance where the payment kiosk is and one at the trailheads. There were four trails and we initially hiked the Maritime Forest Trail...

😐 The park is not that well maintained. The playground area is muddy and the swings are in rough conditions, the parking lot is deteriorating
