County-owned and run park with a beautiful natural spring. There is a "dive platform", which I put…read morein quotes because as a platform diver myself, it's not high enough to be a proper dive platform but still you can do basic stuff or just jump off. Most of our state parks sadly have removed their dive platforms (Fanning, Madison Blue, Gilchrist Blue) so it's nice to find one. There are picnic tables and a I think a playground for little kids plus a sand volleyball court which gets very popular on weekends. Actually, the entire place gets very popular on weekends and I'd advise going on a weekday if possible. Otherwise, it's super-crowded and mostly rowdy teens. There are a lot of fish in the springs but if you want to freedive or snorkel and see them, come on a weekday, ideally in the morning. Once kids come around after school, the dive platform is the highlight and there's enough kids jumping off it to make the water very murky so you won't see anything then underwater. Tips: --It's cash-only, $2 admission for adults, not sure what for little ones. --No footballs: volleyballs are allowed, but no footballs! I asked why and was told by the girl at the concession stand "two boys playing football trampled a Karen who complained". So yeah, that. --The focus is very much on family fun: again, if coming to see nature come on a weekday, ideally early. --If you dive/jump off the platform, swim clear off it immediately. There's likely a middle schooler jumping right after you. Some run, jump, and don't look down and I've been hit before by flying tweens. --The road leading to the park is pretty long and paved. People drive like proverbial bats out of hell on it, 60 MPH or more. Be careful.

Nothing on their website about it when I booked but good on them; I just Love seeing the city healthy and vibrant and happy, happy, happy again. After about a half hour of nerve wracking hunting, we called them to see what all we could do. We were still about a half an hour early. Turns out, nothing! They got us. @!#?@! Our request to reschedule was warmly yes, we could ...but then was coldly nooo, because we were too late after whatever return window we booked in. So better be sure, if you're booking and coming up on the same day. It's not like we were a no-show, or cancelled on short notice, or even changed our mind; we actually made the two hour round trip and drove around for about half an hour looking for parking. Whatever, that's how they do business here and they can Cedar keep it. We will never know the joys of their tour even though we paid for it. Buyer beware, my friends.
