This 900-acre park is a great place for a hike, for a picnic or to just to hang out on a pleasant…read moreday. The park is comprised of a rather nice, small lake, a pond, a boardwalk, several wooded stretches and some farm land. I did not get a chance to go to the Visitor Center, but it looked quite nice. Horseback riding facilities are also available and there are some picnic pavilions that are rather nicely kept. I visited for the first time on a nice crisp early spring evening to take an hour hike. There are four trails of varying lengths. There is a short trail that just traverses the lake for about 3/4 mile. The remaining trail lengths are 1.5, 1.8 and 3.4 miles, respectively. I chose the 1.8-mile trail since I had a short time before park closing. The terrain, scenery and air were invigorating and certainly beat using a treadmill. I'll look forward to the chance to take the longest trail at some point in the future and perhaps also to visit the Visitor Center. It's a great place to collect one's thoughts.

Great place for a nice quiet walk by yourself or with someone. Very nice and peaceful here.read more

I was actually…read moreplanning to check out another local attraction (Pearl's Fen) but this place was on the way, so I stopped, mostly out of curiosity, and I'm SO glad I did!! I had limited time, but did make it about 3/4 of the way around the main trail, with stops along the way to take pictures. Wonderful, varied scenery, varied terrain, and VERY scenic!! This old quarry has been "repurposed" and is a great spot to "get away from it all" without going too far. A good-sized lake, a few easy to moderate trails (the rocky lake overlooks are nice!!) and plenty of parking are what you'll find. No, not the best trail markings/maps, but if I figured it out, anyone can!! A great spot to discover in Greene County, I'll be back!!

Overall beautiful park area, great lake view, plenty of space!…read more Difficulty -- A few trails not to difficult, Boat slip nicely manicured. Grooming -- Influx of unpaid road and pave road out balance them selves. Elevation -- None. Scenery -- very picturesque type atmosphere, lots of nature, around us, such as trees, and vegetation. Family Orientated -- definitely family orientated, easy enough to bring your dog and/or small children. Populated -- usually not very populated due to the proximity of the area off the major highway. Although in the summertime and towards the spring, obviously it will get more and more crowded although it's not unbearable. 10/10

There's plenty of bike paths and trails. It has a few ways to get in. It has an entrance off Union Road which is good if you're on a bike. There's lots of bike trails here. If you go further on the road, you get to the main entrance. This has a good parking lot. It also is the most beautiful area. The best part is the lake, which is fun for pets. It's one of the best Metroparks. It has lots of bike paths connecting to the Ohio bike trail. You can also find other places to walk.

SO MUCH to see/do here that you'll need several visits (at least!!) to even scratch the surface. There's so much to see/do every season, it's tough to know where to start... Bike, fish, hike, picnic, take zillions of pictures, watch for deer and other "residents," and more!! Be sure to view the MASSIVE dam, it's impressive!! Don't miss seeing what there is to see at all of the separate entrances, definitely something for EVERYONE!! Next time, I'm bringing my bike!! Enjoy!!

Starting from an access trail next to the dam, we went counter clockwise , linking the yellow and orange trails. We probably did not get the full "experience" since we were there in the winter when the leaves were off the trees and the river level was low-ish. I am looking forward to coming back in other seasons. Two words of warning: Remember that the trails can be muddy due snowmelt, even if the snow has been gone for a few days. Saw several people out there today whose originally white sneakers are probably a few shades of darker brown now. Also, mud will be thicker and deeper down near the river where soil will have been pushed down the river during previous floods.

It always amazes me to discover these "mini-wildernesses" in the middle of/nearby a relatively populated area. So peaceful, well-maintained, and definitely a GREAT resource for the region!! Possum Creek is one of the few that I had not yet visited, so I decided to take advantage of a lazy Sunday afternoon to trek down to Moraine and see this gem for myself. Great for fishing, picnics, hiking (check out the beautiful, well-marked ORANGE trail) and it's even available for overnight camping (groups only??) Did not see a playground, though I'm sure there's one somewhere. Be sure to take your kids to the farm to see the animals and the Education Center, which was closed late Sunday afternoon, but I'm sure is a good resource as well... A bit off the beaten trail (perfect for a quick "escape") but definitely worth a visit!!

From 9.2 miles of walking trails to 4.4 miles of horse trail the trails are diverse: scenic calming. Walk through beautiful prairies, forested areas over streams and huge trees galore, even past some old amusement park remains. Never to hilling or challenging the trails are a great way to explore and enjoy. There are 4 small fishing ponds and then Argonne Lake. Fishing is allowed in all 4 and you don't need a license, plus paddle crafts are permitted on Argonne lake; with h bluegill and bass, plus catfish stocked into the ponds on July 1. There is always something to catch. We even saw a fox while walking to the farm, yes they have a farm onsite too, rabbits, chickens, goats, donkeys, a garden and of course an old farm house with an educational building for farming programs and more. They even have a cool natural playground that blends in with the land, kinda like hobbits it's cool. Campsites to reserve with fire wood (provided by the park services) and a cool fire pit with a grill attached. I believe there are 3 or 4 campsites and they are huge, like 3 tens and 12 people huge. Of course they have picnic tables too. The only downer is no electricity and no showers, all they have our porta potties near the campsite. It really is a gorgeous park, there are also about 4 or 5 shelters to rent. You'll enjoy Possum Creek Metropark, it's great indeed.
