Cute little place. I kind of expected it to be a little bigger but that was my mistake. Beautiful place for a short morning walk. Very quiet and Serene. Just the sound of the gravel path underneath your feet. I will say that the cantilever wouldn't deck around the Little pond is a little unnerving and feels a little unstable but I made it safely.

Wonderful park, cool in the shade of the hundreds of trees even in full summer. The kids really love rolling down the hill and being able to run freely. Excellent educational and fun experience with several habitats represented and all plants and trees identified. Brought to us by LSU.
