The gentleman that answered the phone said there was space and told us to try to be there before dark. We arrived at 6:30pm, which was after dark, and were told we couldn't camp because he had locked the gate. It would have been helpful if he had told me on the phone not to bother coming if we were going to be there 30 minutes after dark instead of saying "try to be here before dark". We are now in a hotel in Montgomery. Thanks a lot.

Luckily, we paid, and were then calling the phone number to get the code, when someone who was camping pulled up behind us and put the code in for us. The small road bridge leading from the main land to the island was a little scary for me. Good thing there wasn't a car coming the other way, or I would have freaked out even more. This land is wonderful. I could see the appeal to kayak, fish, or have a picnic here, or even camp here. We stopped at the bathrooms first, and they are clean and provide running water. On our drive to the town of Spectre, we ran into the goats. We were driving down the road and all of the goats were coming at us. We put the car in park and enjoyed the goats. One goat even jumped up on my door to say hello. They are fabulous and very friendly. When we exited the vehicle at the Spectre movie set, a super friendly goat was charging at me, I immediately went into the car and the goat approached my boyfriend. All the goat wanted was some pets. And that's what he got. They are like large dogs. There are swing benches around the lake and it is nice to sit and enjoy the scenery. Watch out for goat poop. That is the only bad thing. The goats keep the island well manicured and provide the best entertainment and are adorable.

There is a very nice observation desk overlooking a wetland, however the brush is overgrown and blocks the view. This needs to be cut. Forest Dr Trail would be great for jogging of even bike riding. Creek Trail is a footpath that follows a beautiful stream. Beyond the stream is a very lovely golf course. The Eagle Scouts are in the process of making improvements to the trail. They have already built a nice boardwalk. I walked the trails on a Wednesday evening and only encountered a handful of people. The highlight of the trip was the sound of a calling Screech Owl, deep in the woods on Forest Dr. Trail. Overall, it a great way to spend a couple hours in Montgomery.
