It runs 10.1 miles one way and the parking lot is a further drive if you use the trailhead on Yelp. On the other end there are restroom and a portable. Although there are many bodies of water as you ride across, there are no waterfalls as the name might suggest. Midway there is a nice cross breeze as it cuts between a lake. Today there was a horde of teenagers walking to the lake and was oblivious to anyone else around them. Hopefully, this is not a regular occurrence as it was difficult to navigate around them.

The Falling Waters Trail in Jackson County, Michigan serves as a great recreation spot for…read morebicyclists, joggers and walkers in the central part of the Mitten State. The trail is a beautifully paved 10.4 mile pathway linking the west side of the City of Jackson with the picturesque Village of Concord, Michigan with its many Victorian homes. The trail was once an old Michigan Central Railroad route and was converted to a Rails-to-Trails recreation area in 2007. The trail runs through rural countryside and beautifully shaded woodlands with only a handful of road crossings. The trail's name reflects the area's natural beauty and the region's native Potawatomi Indian tribe..."The land of Falling Waters". The Jackson trailhead at Weatherwax Drive and Park Road provides plenty of secure parking as does the trailhead ten miles to the west in Concord. Today we rode the full 21 miles out and back in beautiful Michigan summer weather before rewarding ourselves with Orange Creamsicle Milkshakes at Arby's on the way out of town....definitely a 5-star biking experience all the way.

The South Branch of the River Raisin meanders through the park year round. Birds are singing and small wild animals getting a drink of water. During the fall, the leaves turn yellow, orange and red. It's our favorite park in Adrian. The park is a part of the Kiwanis hiking trail that starts at the southern part of Adrian to the town of Tecumseh, MI, about 10 miles away. The part is well maintained. During the winter time, it is covered with several inches of snow. The parking lot is behind the Lenawee County Jail, manned by the Lenawee County Sheriff.

Just enough up and down motion to intimidate some walkers. A wonderful experience. All the employees/volunteers we met were very friendly and had loads of information. We can't wait to go back next spring when the foliage is back. This is definitely a go to place in my book.

It's so clean and peaceful, mostly due to the work of the neighbors that live around it. They take fantastic care of it. The entrance to the park from Arborview is surrounded by homes and, at least last summer, one of the homes had a vegetable garden that they labeled with "help yourself" (don't quote me on that if you get in trouble for taking a tomato this year, tho). Lots of greenery, and a number of pathways mean that no two walks are the same. One main, wood chipped pathway runs north/south from Arborview to Miller and then several other, smaller pathways spiderweb off of it. There are a few benches throughout and only a handful of signs so once you get going it may be hard to figure out where you are but it's easy to retrace your steps. Also, it's not so huge that you can't get through it pretty easily. Just last night my pup and I made it there, then through a good chunk of it, and back to our home about 5. mile away in about 45 minutes. If you live on the west side of Ann Arbor and don't have the time to dedicate to heading over to Nichols', Gallup Park, or Bird Hills this will get you your fill of nature quite nicely. You can find a map for the park here if you are so inclined: http://www.a2gov.org/departments/Parks-Recreation/parks-places/Documents/Park%20Maps/Miller%20Nature%20Area%20Map.pdf

If you are looking into this venue,…read moreread ALL of the Yelp reviews from the past 5 years, which is about when the property changed hands. The most recent ones accurately represent folks' experiences. This was the venue for a family wedding, because it was inexpensive, but it is minimally maintained. The wedding was beautiful only because we showed up with leaf blowers and work gloves the day before. The property manager was nonresponsive when we reached out about the green swimming pool and broken grills with no gas tanks. When we finally got hold of her, the day after the wedding, she would not take responsibility for the appalling state of the property. The property manager double booked the venue and that meant our 200 guests were not allowed to use the public bathrooms. Indeed, they were reprimanded by the maintenance folks. So all of those guests had to use folks' motel room bathrooms. Needless to say, the rooms ran out of toilet paper and folks had to use napkins . The maintenance gal was ineffective, except she did get gas tanks for the grills when we requested them and removed the rotting chicken on one of the grills. Communication with the folks representing this venue was appalling. Get a contract for what you need and be explicit. We hesitated to do a Yelp review as we filed complaints with the Consumer Protection area of the Michigan Attorney General's office and the Lenawee County Health Dept, in hopes that no one else would be misled by the VRBO listing or website. The AG office did nothing, still awaiting word from the Health Dept. So we had to resort to social media to let other consumers know to beware. Photos are of the pool, and salamander scooped out, and rotting chicken on the grill.
