Even in a crazy world full of struggle, heartbreak, insecurity, and just about every other NEGATIVE that you can imagine, we're HERE, and this life is a wonderful GIFT!! This memorial park is dedicated to the memory of a man who lost his battle against the demons he fought so hard to conquer, but it's not a "sad" place, IMO... It's beautiful, peaceful, and so IMPORTANT to the waaaaay too many here in this region who have lost their loved ones and search for peace. It's a relatively quick, "easy" hike through the GORGEOUS pines at the entrance, with memorial stops along the way from Daniel's family and many others. The chapel is the "heart" of this place, I believe, with hundreds of heartfelt, sincere tributes to lost loved ones. I added mine to my husband, whose untimely death three years ago changed my life. Peace has been hard to find since October 2, 2021, but this place, as true (for me....) most walks in nature, has truly helped... Thank you to all those responsible for providing and upkeeping this wonderful place!!

I saw two people out on the trials the whole time. Bring a folding chair and you can find some great spots to sit and let your surrounds consume you. If you go to the welcome center there are restrooms and a place to fill up on water. The trail signs are positioned well and make it clear what trail is what. I recommend you take a picture of the park trial map, so you can reference it when necessary. There are some camp sites, and even some 'backcountry' camp sites that you have to hike too. Many different shelters to reserve with parking lots in other areas of the park (you don't have to hike to them). There is a sledding hill too. I only saw probably 10 or 15% of the park. But it is sure worth checking out. I believe it's 5 River metroparks biggest park. Enjoy exploring yelpers!!

There is a trail in the woods that leads to a small pond on the left and there is a bigger pond. It closes for the season during the winter and reopens in late March. The trail is a easy walk on mostly flat terrain but not handicapped friendly. There was some gravel which was nice for traction after some rain. It was a quiet place and peaceful walk in the woods.

Just be aware: The trails are moderate and there are some pretty steep spots. It is good for families with older kids, and pets - yay!! but not stroller friendly. I definitely recommend wearing good hiking shoes or boots to have a better grip on the ground. . The park itself is just beautiful. Lots of woodlands that let you recharge your soul. Benches along the trail invite for a break or to soak in the beautiful scenery.

Ok had been back to these trails in years and decided to do 2 trails the red and the blue both were…read morearound a mile each. It had been dry so didn't have to worry about mud and it had been cool lately so was hoping the bugs weren't a problem. So doused myself in bug repellent and headed out on my own to get some steps in. love walking in nature. I took pics of the trail map and color of the trail i was doing so I didn't get lost ... at least that was my goal. I did the red and then the blue. both trails were harder than I was looking for. The hills were steep and slippery .. plus rock and roots to stumble on. a few areas were so steep I had to find branches to make myself a walking stick. but the blue trail was a hot mess. so over grown and trees down. At one point it just ended .. the trail led to a lot of brush I ended up walking in the woods in areas that didn't look like a trail. alot was so over grown and they obviously aren't clearing this area and no one is going on the blue trail. Then I get to the parking lot and see the same colors I'd been on in the area near the overlook ... which I'd never been to. So is that different trails with the same colors .... I'm not sure. I followed the signs for blue and red and neither took me to this. I def wont return alone. there were several times I slipped and stumbled and it was scary especially alone. I made it out without falling and lived to hike again somewhere else another day. There was a guy in his truck when I started and the same guy was sitting there when I went to my car .. found that creepy and weird. It was 80 plus degrees why just sit there alone ... odd. park staff should clear the blue trail ... it's a hazard

Sycamore Trails Aquatic Center is a blast. We came here for a private event and my family…read morethoroughly enjoyed themselves. The surrounding area is peaceful and quiet and well maintained. Not only does the center have a great pool but also 2 water slides, diving board, a splash area, and water rock climbing wall. The different areas of the pool is divided by water ropes and there are lifeguards assigned to each area to ensure the safety of patrons. There are plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas if you want to read or take a cat nap while there. There is a picnic area and also a small playground and sand volleyball if that tickles your fancy. The bathrooms were spotless and had showers and changing areas. Due to the event being private we had catered food but there is a concession stand to buy snacks and food while at the center if need be. This is a great place to bring the whole family for water fun!

Maybe going during the middle of the week when people are at work helped. My kids loved the big pool area with all the fun tools and toys. They also likes the slide, but I would suggest they have a lifeguard who is comfort with kids and telling them to get in line be there because the poor kid who was there was not at all. I thought the price was good for non-residents. A little high, but I get it. I liked that they didn't care about you bringing food in and had plenty of grass, shaded spots to sit with my kids. We had a really great time and will come back again next summer!

The new playground is so awesome. It has a lot of things for the kids to do. There is a small splashpad.

It offers tiered sitting, which is wonderful for all the concerts and shows that get offered. The bike path is in nice space and connects beautifully to the paths inside the park. The updated bathrooms are nice too. I would appreciate them leaving them open longer throughout the year for those still using the park.
