I've lived in the area for a while now but have never made it to this lake before. Today was the…read moreperfect weather for a walk so I finally made it here. The park is on the smaller side but does have plenty of parking spaces. The trail is paved and clearly marked. I was expecting it to loop all the way around the lake but it didn't seem to. There were a few trails off of the paved path that I didn't explore. The views of the lake are very nice and there are a few benches to stop and enjoy it. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice this place was and also how busy it was. I arrived just before 10am and the place was buzzing with people enjoying the lake.

It's big with lots to do and was a favorite for my daughter as a toddler. There's the wave pool which is great on a hot summer day. BMX trails, remember those fondly with boyfriends. Hiking, biking and walking trails, horses and stables. Loads and loads of picnic and wooded areas for more hiking. Ponds, and BUFFALO...did I mention the buffalo? Amazing. Not to mention plenty of open land (once the fairgrounds) for festivals and concerts, have seen several bands. Lots and lots of beautiful flowers and vegetation, and wildlife. Literally something for everyone here.

This park is great! Pretty much has everything that you can think of. I went to the game preserve…read moretoday and really enjoyed it. I saw the buffalo along with ducks, geese, and turtles. It's the perfect spot to take your little ones to check everything out. They also have a nearby playground for the kids. Lastly if you get the chance check out the farmers market on Tuesdays by the ice skating rink. Highly recommend!

The ruins of an old pipe factory are very visible and there are informative signs that tell the story. These occurrences took place in the 1800's. There is history of criminals murdered, accidental death(pipe factory), a hanging, an explosion, a drowning, a giant snake sighting, all taking place in the park. For this reason many people think that the sight is haunted by the people who met their fate here. I hate to burst the excitement, but I have never experienced ghosts, or any other paranormal activity while spending time there. In fact, despite it's dark past Dead Man's Hollow is a very tranquil place. If you have been there during May when Spring season really kicks off you will see tons of wildflowers that are spectacular. The pipe factory had a fire and the ground was burned. This happens to be very good for re-growth and as a result we get to experience a lot of beautiful flora. Also, the old pipe factory remains are covered with cool graffiti. The trails are at times narrow, but they are very clean. You are at some point going to climb up and down hills, so it is a very good workout. I would say that the hiking is a bit more challenging. To find it I would suggest searching via a trailhead name and not just the park name. One example would be "cat fish pond trail." There is a nice parking area near that trailhead. There is also another parking area on the other side of the park(more on that later). This other side is closer to the ruins.

We checked out the catfish pond today. It looked promising at first but soon discovered that there…read moreis very little accessibility to fish there. The spots that are open are at an incline sloped towards the pond and are very slippery and hazardous. I do not recommend taking young kids there. My daughter and I fished for an hour or so and only saw bluegill in the 3-4" range and smaller minnows. We used lures and worms and had many bites but the fish were too small to get hooked. We did see many water turtles and even a few babies whose shell was about 2-3" in diameter. We also saw one large snapping turtle appear for a few seconds. There are also a bunch of bullfrog minnows whose bodies were the size of golf balls (early June). It's a cool place to see but we won't be returning to fish.

My toddler loves a good playground and Millennium Park did…read morenot disappoint! The playground was super cute and pretty new. Different types of climbers compared to other playground sets.

We drove/walked around Millenium Park today just to see what in the heck was up here. lol. We…read moredidn't stay long but got a gander. When I got home I did a little research on it. It turns out that it's 40 acres and has a playground, 3 softball/baseball fields (two of which are lighted), an all-purpose field (for soccer, lacrosse, or just playing with your dog as one older gentleman was doing), and bathrooms. Other than that there's not much to it. It is easy to miss when driving down Baptist Road. However it is very well kept and on this Sunday afternoon wasn't crowded at all. So if you just want that simple walk in the park without running into everyone and their uncle, you might want to take a ride over here. It doesn't beat Schenley or South Park in terms of amenities, but it's a beautiful, clean park in its own right, hence the 4 stars.
