Beautiful place for my forest bathing excursion! Area is not available for public use only for scheduled events through Dakota County, scouting events, and campground next door.
I have loved hiking here for a long time, as well as spending time in the evening. The hiking trails are beautiful and there is a surprising amount of wildlife present despite being close to so many busy roads. The one down side I could see would be that you need to hike in, but over all, it is easy enough to get into this park without driving in!
The campground seems quite nice for anyone who doesn't mind camping in the forest. There are pit toilets at the campsite, so be prepared for that. There are nearby hiking trails and an outdoor classroom. I have seen deer and wild turkeys here before, too!
A nice quiet area to rent for family activities
Great place to have an event!!!
