With plenty of trees and water areas one could hike for hours. It is a good raft or canoe launch site as well. From what many of the locals tell me this place has a history of producing large strippers and black bass. When I went today many of the ponds were full of algae but fortunately the river ran clean. From what I gather if I had a canoe I probably would have landed some good size black bass. Unlike some of the other people fishing I did have a few bites on my line. Of course if I told you what lure I was using I would have to k.... you. Just kidding or am I?

Pros: convenient location, fenced, large area for the runners/working dogs to really zoom…read more Cons: no grass, poop left behind, fence very low for big dogs, irresponsible owners not minding their dogs. It has a lot of potential, if you wanted to throw a ball and let your dog really run. Or just let the doggies run out their Zoomies. I have a German Shepherd she usually runs two or three laps and then we leave. Please pet owners clean up after your dogs!

Various trash and broken plastic lawn chairs strewn about. A sign by the gate reads "private property, use at your own risk." A sign inside reads something to the effect of "if you use this space, take care of it or the church will take it away." Not very welcoming, if this wasn't on yelp you would have no idea that it's a "public" dog park. Kind of janky and probably not always super safe, but okay for a brief stop in daylight on the way down the 99.

Okay, so this place is cooler than I expected…read more The recommended trail is just under 4 miles, but you can avoid the loop if you aren't up for that or you can easily extend your distance. We kept walking what we THOUGHT was the main trail and walked along the river for awhile, until it started getting rougher and less maintained, and ended up veering off trail to get back to our truck. We did about 4.5 miles, and it was mostly flat. So what's so cool about the place? 1. It's quiet. We never seen any other vehicles or people while we were there. Great for social distancing, 2. Parking and entry is free (unlike the busy park we had visited earlier today which was $10/car) 3. The wildlife! We seen a handful of large jack rabbits, some smaller rabbits, 4 river otters, tons of quail, and some larger birds. We'll definitely be back here again. Especially once the air quality clears up. Glad we discovered this gem!
