Really great place to have a picnic or just get away from this crazy world and just enjoy nature. You really need good walking shoes because you are going to want to see all the beautiful landscape. My new favorite hide out lol

It is a large historical park with a mansion, bike trails picnic tables. Nice place to have a group gathering!

We enjoyed touring this home. It has an unusually large amount of original artifacts. The tour guide was knowledgeable and made the backstory re the former occupants interesting. Tour begins with a 15-20 min film and covers approximately 10-12 rooms.
