At 53.3 acres this is Broward County's most archaeological significant natural area. Artifacts found here show that people have lived here from 500 B.C. through roughly A.D. 1000 to 1200. Centuries later this area was home to Miccosukee leader Chitto Tustenuggee known as the snake warrior. He was designated chief during the Second Seminole war whose beginning was tied to the Cooley massacre in Ft. Lauderdale. For more on that see my review of Colee Hammock Park. Two Seminole settlements once sat on two islands in the marsh and were occupied for a dozen years before the Seminoles were attacked and fled the area. In 1947 the land became the Perry farm. Community interest in the land as an archaeological and historic site caused it to be purchased in 1992 by the State of Florida through the Emergency Archaeological Property Acquisition Fund. On January 21, 2004 Snake warrior Island opened as a natural area. As you walk around the area it is easy to see the beauty that attracted the native people to the area. The lake and eight created wetlands are surrounded by live oak, gumbo limbo, strangler fig, cypress, red maple, wild coffee, beautyberry, fire bush, pickerel weed, eel grass, and rushes. Wildlife in the area include wading birds and ducks, red wing blackbirds, wood storks, little blue and tricolored herons, anhinga, white ibis, and and osprey. On my visit I saw many iguanas and other kinds of lizards. Amenities include benches, signs, and picnic tables. A half mile paved walkway loops through the preserve and takes you back to the parking lot.

Pretty and well maintained City Park with good historical markers. Great little loop for runners and walkers. Picnic tables for small groups. Very pleasant outing!

I haven't walked the entire Trail. But a lot of people seem to be enjoying it. I didn't see a playground area for children or babies
