👍👍 Beautiful! Stunning! Read the signs, lots of info about stuff! Who knew?! A female bat can eat 600 insects in an hour. Can you imagine if we didn’t have bats? WHOA! Also saw 30 plus herein (blue) sunbathing all casual like. Check it out or don’t.

3-acres of serene landscaped gardens nestled in a forest, with paths, a pond, stream & conservatory.

👍👍 Had a beautiful time revisiting, loved the option off short or longer trail. The scenery was perfect, from a forested stretch out to the wetlands. Absolutely beautiful. Saw deer and bats during our half hour at the park. Was not disappointed, hadn’t visited for 10 years.

There is not much seating for any rest stops. There is some incline but not terrible. If someone in a wheelc...

👍👍 One of my favorite places to get away and drop a hook . Theres two other lakes connecting to the main lake. Oh yeah, and there's a family of beavers there as well.

Additionally there is a lookout tower offering views of the 207 acre preserve. There is enough parking for about 6 vehicles in the s...

👍👍 The work there is wonderful. Remember to keep the dogs and kids out of the water. Salmon egg beds are there.

👍 Solid place to walk around. There's can be weirdos and strays that come in and out and the creek is quite polluted now a days. Really needs a cleanup. But I still love it here it is a great place to clear the mind. One of my favorite parks.

😠 I would advise against going here, it is not safe. I thought and still believe it is supposed to be open to the public but the "caretaker" will claim you are private property and chase you off and make veiled threats against you. If you go I advise having a camera on just in case. This place needs t...

👍 New trail preserve with a playground, and pretty clean bathrooms. Beautiful view of Mtn Rainier
