It was extremely difficult to push a stroller through both trails. There were tree routes, homeless camp debris, and steep drop offs for mountain biking. We never made it to the waterfall because the trails were poorly marked, and we kept going on trails where the brush was hard to go through. There is a bathroom and picnic tables, with maps of the trails, but I would recommend using Alltrails or Strava for guidance.

The views through the farmland are truly relaxing, and there's plenty of parking to make getting started a breeze. Everyone we encountered on the trail was courteous, making it an enjoyable experience from start to finish. The added bonus? Benches and bathrooms along the path! I can't wait to come back for another ride.

This was a nice paved trail that was easy to walk with my son's stroller and our dog. There was a…read morecrossing on a busy road where we had to stop to wait for traffic to go past or wait for someone to stop for us to cross. There were lots of people bicycling, walking, and walking dogs and strollers. There was one farm where there was goats, sheep, dogs, chickens, and ducks. We only walked for an hour, but the trail goes 14 miles on paved, well maintained trail. The gravel parking lot had a lot of cars compared to the number of people I saw on the trail. There is a dual bathroom on the other side of the parking lot and maps of the trail near the trailhead start.

It has a small but pleasant nature walk, a kayak launch, a children's playground, an open field, adequate parking, and more. There is a private residence on the grounds, so please be mindful of that. All in all, Alejandro Garces Camp Tomahawk Park is a wonderful park and a great place in particular for the residents of this quiet side street. We need parks like this in our communities. This is a wonderful place to come in respite. I would definitely recommend a visit here, especially if you are in the neighborhood or anywhere in the general area. I will give it five stars as an overall rating. Go check it out for yourself, I am confident that you will not be disappointed.

I had an unusual experience here only the second time I have been I am new to the area. I brought…read moremy kids to the playground and a strange woman struck up a conversation and would not leave us alone asking me all sorts of questions and often repeating herself. She continued on by playing with my children but did not have a child with her. A boyfriend was standing and waiting outside of the vehicle just smoking cigarettes. It gave me an uneasy feeling that either she was on drugs or they were involved in trafficking. I have since not gone back. It is a nice park otherwise and it's unfortunate some people have to ruin a good thing. I would just be mindful when you come here with your kids.

The trails are well maintained and well marked with blazes. The trails take you through a wealth of biological diversity from pine forests to uplands that hug Black Creek and other smaller creeks. I haven't camped so can't speak to the campgrounds but the camp sites are well marked. Cost to visit is $2 pass that can be purchased online. The parking lot does not have good reception so better to purchase in advance. Parts of the trail is shaded but a lot of it is in the sun so be aware if visiting during the hotter months.
