This is a great walking trail found in Richmond Hill along Hwy 144. It's just before you get to…read moreFire Station 1 on the same side of the road. The trail is about 0.7 miles one way and paved all the way, great for all levels. The speed limit is 55 miles/hr on that portion of the road so be careful when you slow down to turn into the parking lot because I don't think many people even know there is a trail here unless you live in the area. People probably will not expect you to turn off randomly into a dirt lot. There are actually 3 points of entry on this trail. First one as mentioned above off Hwy 144, the second at Fort McAllister Road (which is the other end of the trail) and the third being behind the baseball field and Bark Park in DeVaul Henderson Recreation Park. The trail is nice and shaded. You will be walking alongside the "Green Creek" where the water has this disgusting, yet beautiful bright green moss that coats the surface of the water, hence the name I am assuming. There are a few benches spaced out along the trail for snack and rest breaks. Shortly after you start the trail, you will arrive at a small bridge which is the access point to DeVaul Henderson. Parking - Access to Hwy 144 is the only point of entry with a small lot. The entry point on Fort McAllister seems more like a large spot off the side of the road and if you go through DeVaul, nearest parking is by the new playground, so you'll have to walk a little bit to get to the bridge. Great little trail to get some fresh air and a place where littles can burn some energy. Currently, tot is passed out for a nap. Win!

They offer two-hour and four-hour rentals of single and tandem kayaks at a very reasonable rate. They also provided everything you need as far as kayak, paddle, and life vest. It turned out to be a great experience and we got to do something a little different while on vacation.

This 494-acre wetland preserve and park is another piece of property purchased by Chatham County. They created a 20-acre lake and have planted more than 20,000 trees. This park is tucked away on Highway 17, on Chief of Love Road. Parking - When you turn off on Hwy 17, you just have to continue driving until you get to a fork in the road. I stayed to the left and then we found ourselves in a huge gravel lot where it seemed the most appropriate to park the car. Trail Description - Once I parked the car, we walked to the fork where I could see the barrier and hiking sign (I saw it on the drive in). We started there and kept to the left. It started out as a pretty well marked path, under the trees. Once you get out of the shaded part, it's just grassy. It will bring you around the lake, and it's wide open, so there is no way you would get lost. We opted to take a shortcut and cut through on the bridge. There was a man there fishing. He said some days the fish bite like crazy and other says, nothing, so just a tip to anyone who likes to go fishing. There are picnic tables and a covered picnic area in the middle by the bridge that are great spots for meal and snack breaks. There were beautiful flowers along the way and also a patch of what I think are called Cypress Trees at one end of the lake. They are pretty much dead, but I thought they were pretty to look at the cluster of them. The reflection of the trees on the sunny day was just perfect. My Fitbit clocked the portion we did as about 1 mile. Kid-Friendly - Absolutely! Very flat trail, however not paved. Unless you have a B.O.B or a jogging stroller with bike-like tires, I would just use a baby carrier. Thankful that Chatham County is very nature focused and is committed to providing green space in the area for its residents. There seemed to be another trail by the park sign, so we will have to come back to explore that portion!

The DeVaul Henderson Lake Loop (DHLL) seemed to be the best bet due to length of the trail. When you are on Hwy 144 and you get to the roundabout, turn in on Veterans Memorial Parkway, where the Bryan County Administrative Complex is. The trail is located right next to it. You can't miss it. Parking - You can pretty much park anywhere on the grass along Veterans Memorial Parkway. I like to park toward the other end, by the elementary school, where you see the 4 wooden posts. Trail Description - From the 4 wooden posts, down to the paved path, the ground is dirt and a mix of sand and pine needles, and not paved, but that distance is minimal. It is surround by tall trees. Once you get down to the paved part, the signs indicate that it's a 0.5 mile loop. This loop has 3 different connection points to other parts of DeVaul Henderson Recreation Park (to soccer fields and restrooms) and I believe to the side of the Bryan County Administrative Complex. The connection points are located on the opposite side of Veterans Memorial Parkway. There are park benches all around the lake, as well as flotation devices in case someone gets in and needs some saving. There was a unique bench (kind of like one of those stone benches you see in gardens) and it had a sign "The Murphy Bench" that was placed there in memory of an infant boy. How tragic, but so touching. Difficulty Level - Easy for all ages. It is stroller and wheelchair friendly too, but might experience some bumpiness when going down that first small stretch to the paved path. Beware - There are signs that say "Beware of Wildlife". I am assuming they mean alligators, because that is what they always seem to warn you about around these parts, but we did not personally see any. But do we ever really see them when they are around? Unless they decide to come out of the water. However, we did see a lot of ducks swimming in the lake, as well as a beautiful white one just sitting on the side in the grass. This is a great place to run, walk, speed walk, scoot (my Little One took her scooter) and I saw some people fishing too. It's a great pit stop if you happen to be in the area. You can fill up on gas at the Shell Station and stretch those legs before you go on the next leg of your trip. Get outside, People!
