Truly an awesome park. A peaceful get away from the city. Nice trails that surrounds the main Park. Beautiful scenery. Usually positive and friendly people around. Well-being conscious people. I only go there for a short peaceful walk around the park for like an hour and a half. So it hurts to go from paying nothing to $10 a day. It would have been a lot better if it was $10 on the weekend and $5.00 through the week which would have made a lot more sense. It's my favorite park in the area. The parking lot is emptier than it should be through the week because of the parking fee. You risk the chance of getting your car broken into parking outside of the park. I think $5 a day would have been a perfect medium. But like I said I love this park and it hurts me that I can't go as much as I please. Getting my health back together after cancer treatment and this park was a pure motivation to get out and about and exercise. Horses and stables in the back for private owners. Trails throughout the park that takes you over the mountain. Somewhat secluded areas by the dog park under shaded trees. Positive people and beautiful energy throughout. Truly a gem in the environment we live in today . But I don't think charging $5 instead of $10 would have hindered The vibes at all. I hope and pray that they step back a little bit on the entry fee because I just can't afford it. It bothers me to use the word can't so one day I will be able to afford it I'm sure. So who all that read this I wish you a beautiful an awesome unfolding of this delicious life that we all share on this planet. 💙

Beautiful and very large park — perfect for spending a few hours outdoors. There are multiple trails that wind across, around and above the park, from easy walks to some more intense hikes with limited shade, so come prepared with water and sunscreen. The views on the more intense hikes are great. Entry fee is $10 per vehicle, and it’s absolutely worth it for how well-kept the park is. There are plenty of picnic areas, clean restrooms, a small creek (dry during our November visit), and nice recreational areas for kids. A great place to relax, explore, or hike for a few hours surrounded by nature. Both the park and all the hikes are dog friendly, but dogs need to stay on the leash especially because there's a lot of wild nature on the hikes

My husband and I visited the park area while staying in the area. Each morning I enjoy going for a walk and found this close to our hotel. This is a HUGE park and I would love to come back and explore. There are paved paths to take and walk along. There were several playground areas for different ages of children. Lots of bathroom areas. There was both a small and large dog park area. One thing I noticed is that there were several trails within the area and some went quite high. This would be an awesome place to come explore the trails, walking paths, and get some good workouts in. There were also areas with workout stations for individuals to use.

My family loves this park. They are charging entry fees for parking inside the park now but its worth it in my opinion. They have hiking trails, walking paths, a creek bed you can walk threw if its dry. Three separate playgrounds. There's places you can grill and unlimited picnic tables. They have alot of bathrooms. There's horses at the end of the trail. Soccer fields at the top of the park but you can't always drive up there. The dog park is really nice. Beautiful and well maintained park. If you dont want to pay the 10 dollars you can park at the mall and walk over.

Quick update with new scenery videos for the main hiking trail. Was a bit muddy so proper shoes highly recommended for best experience. Great place to hike. The plush greenery, beautiful blooms of cherry blossoms, and lots of white, yellow and purple flowers make it a quick and easy way to take a nature break. There’s also a new Nothing Bundt Cakes coming soon in the plaza next door. Excited for opening day 🤤
