After growing up in the area and recently moving back, I had no idea until recently that this park…read morewas right next to the Burlington Mall--now I know! There are a number of different trails to explore that are well marked/kept (similar to all Trustees spaces). After some rain in the area, some of the areas are a bit muddy, so one may want to keep an eye on the weather/bring hiking shoes or other shoes you don't mind getting some mud on. You can also hear the hum of the freeway nearby. I also saw a wild turkey on this hike, which I trailed behind for about 10 minutes, haha! Glad to run into a fellow hiker on this trail! :)

Parking is fairly easy, there is a parking lot. Most of the playground is accessible, besides 1 swing. There is 1 swing over sand, 2 swings over rubber, and 1 bucket harness swing over rubber. The is sensory and musical, play equipment in the first part, as well as imaginary play. Secondly, there are low monkey bars and a climber. Next, there is a straight slide and if you go a little higher there is a spiral slide. To get on the playground, there are stairs, a curved ladder, or the monkey bars. For older kids, there is a semicircular climbing net. There is also a baseball field, pickle ball courts, a basketball court, picnic tables with shelter, and 2 trails leading to neighborhoods. It is fully of activities for the younger set, and it would be great to go there for 15 minutes to half an hour!

Beautiful! How can you rate a lake? Well there are a few things that come to mind: rest area, bug…read morepopulation, accessibility, and swim-ability. Rest: there are places all around the banks to plop down or set up some folding chairs. There is lots of tree coverage and shade around the lake. Bugs: Plenty. (I think they're primarily baby dragonflies because it's Spring and 'tis the season) Accessibility: There's a parking lot! (G-d bless the 21st century in which natural areas come with parking lots) It also is along the Narrow Gauge Rail-Trail so it's accessible by a bike/walk path. You do need to do a tiny 1-minute hike down a small hill to get to the lake. Swim-ability: Rules for swimming are unknown. I can tell you that right on the edge of the lake, it's a little scummy, so I'm not sure it's appealing/a good idea to do so. No trash though! All in all, a wonderful lake to visit, might not spend the day here, but still worth the pretty views.

You can rent a kayak and explore the pond in the center of the reservation. Plenty of spots for mountain biking. Sheepfold Dog Park is where I mostly go so I can hike off-leash with my doggy.

We parked in the lot for the ski touring, crossed the road, and were on our way. We did the North and South loop of the Acorn trail, totaling about 2.5-3 miles.
