Islip Saddle... I slipped…read more So, I'm not sure how this trail is while in the spring, summer, or fall, but in the wintertime... boy, you better get shoes that grip. I went to islip saddle to take the trail leading towards the campground little jimmy. It's an incline trail, leading you about 3 miles before reaching Little Jimmy. At 7000ft already, the air is thin and there was some wind chill mixed into that, so be sure to pack water and make it accessible to you. That said, I started my journey towards Little Jimmy, and came across a trail of mixed dirt, gravel, small rocks, sleet, and ice. Wearing breathable running shoes was definitely not the right footwear, and I ended up slipping on the ice once. Now, slipping already sucks, but I was scared for my life. The trail is small, with a sharp angle going up and down next to you. Had my heavy pack not fell towards the mountain, the weight of it would have tumbled me off the trail and plummeting off the mountain, where there weren't many trees close enough to stop my descent. Given how fast and hard I would've fell, by the time I would catch myself or collide with something, it would've resulted in serious injury... or worse. Islip Saddle, or any trail for that matter, is not something that you should take lightly. If you backpack overnight, like I did, be sure to take your essentials and have a emergency plan if ever should the situation arise. Nonetheless, the whole journey really helped me learn about myself, appreciate the little things in life, and take in the beauty around me. It really is a beautiful place to go to, and I would seriously recommend it... but I recommend it, also, not to do it the way I did it-- alone. If this is your first time, bring someone with you. And be sure to enjoy it! Your safety is the #1 priority, but take in the landscape and everything around you. And, as always, happy trails. :)

This review is for the Devil's Chair Trail:…read more Went with two friends and we finished in around 3 hours. The start is the hardest part since there's little to no shade, and there are still burnt trees along the trail. We also ran into a fallen tree on the trail and had to climb over it. I took some photos and one video from our hike. Once we got to the Devil's Chair, the views were nice, just not the most impressive compared to other hikes. Worth doing once, but I wouldn't go out of my way to repeat it which is why I give it 4/5 stars.

I really feel this is a 4 1/2 star park. mainly because there is no water element here as hot as it…read moreis gets here! But the park is great for younger children, I must admit. They have so much imaginative things for them. The theme looks like bugs, actually it looks like the Ant's life around here. I wish just three things for the park. 1. They put a water element in 2. They update the woodchuck playground to that soft compound for the kids, because they can't wear sandals as hot as it is with this kind of woodchuck they stick them in their toes 3. The parking from what I see is pretty far away from the park area if you're bringing multiple children or equipment is a Long Beach like walk! Lol Other than that if I lived near here, this would be the park of choice for. I don't think they have a designated dog park area, but it's a large enough park that you could walk your dogs. They have at least two baseball fields, two tennis courts looks like it might be two basketball courts and at least 2 to 4 different areas to play soccer a skate park a barbecue pit area. Literally the only thing missing is water !!

I think the only restrooms are in the nearby Rec Center, but the rec center is not always open, and even when it is, I'm not sure it's open to the public: I think the bathrooms are only available to people who are there to participate in Rec Center activities. The playground is near a busy avenue, but it's far enough from the street that the noise of traffic isn't too loud. There is only one slide, and it's not very big or exciting, but at least it's there. There is no basketball court, but the big, well maintained grassfield is good for other activities like soccer and football. There is a farmers market next to the park every Friday night, at least during summer. If this park had dedicated restrooms and more benches and picnic tables, I would give it five stars.

I enjoyed this lake a lot. Came here on a Saturday and got here around 3pm. It was super busy and…read morewhen we arrived the parking lot was full. I was directed to go across the street and walk down. Parking was $10 per car and across the street it was free. However, it's a walk from the parking across the street. They also have a yearly pass which is $30. They also have bathrooms close by. We fortunately found parking and unpacked and went down to the lake. There's plenty of space for a lot of people. You can fish, swim and even kayak. There is also a spot to rent out equipment to do all that. We brought our own boats for kayaking. The lake isn't too big, you can go down the whole thing within 10min or less. Very small but it's very calm and beautiful. My family loved it. It's a great spot to hang out and relax. We'll come back again if we're ever in the area.

This was my first time coming here, and I really enjoyed it. The trail has two fairly steep hills…read moreone going up and one on the way back so it's about a 2-3 mile hike depending on your pace. I'd rate it easy to moderate because of those hills. I brought my 5-year-old, and she was able to handle it, but she did complain on the way back, so next time I probably won't bring her. The views are really nice, and there are a few smaller trails around the area. I'm definitely planning to go again. I went a bit late around 9 a.m., and the sun was already pretty strong, so going earlier would be better. Overall, I 100% recommend this hike.

This happened between 1 and 2 p.m. last Wednesday (10/29/25), in broad daylight. A horrible experience. Be careful and think twice before you park there.
