Amazing a wet land park located in residential area. Pretty small but clean water. Saw families fish there with young kids. Didnt see toilet nor drinking water though.

My son loves to fish and hes an excellent teen fishmerman; completely self taught! This is one of his favorite places to fish (he likes to catch & release 95% of the time)!3 catches in 30 minutes! Not to shappy!#proudmom#supportyourkids#nocomplaints

I’ve been in the Columbia/EC area for many years but never knew about this little gem of a park.Very peaceful and tranquil area. Perfect for a nice walk.I had my headphones on, but decided to take them off and just listen to nature.I’ll be coming back many more times!

This is a nice park for a quiet walk. Smooth paths, good for strollers, pretty well maintained. Nice forest, pond and stream views. Quite a lot of wildlife for a suburban setting if youre looking for it. No parking to speak of; best bet is probably street parking in the neighborhood to east of the park, I guess.

Delightful brief getaway. Always see geese but often also see deer, fox, beaver, ducks, a heron, a kingfisher, and more. Some people fish. Perfect for a half hour stroll or to bring a book and read by the large pond.

I dont have much time that I moved to this place and I love coming to this park because it has enough space for my two dogs, a Saint Bernard and a German Shepherd. In addition it is very close to my apartment, I work from home and sometimes I take advantage of that closeness to come to sit and rest from my own routine while I look at people with their pets. It really is a place where I can relax. It is very relaxing to be in an environment full of trees in the middle of the city, the truth is that it helps you to think a little more clearly, and you breathe cleaner air than when you are in the streets between cars. I really spend very pleasant moments in the tranquility of this place, I try to come at least once a week and I will continue doing so while living here.Royal Steam Green Carpet Cleaning Elliott city3756 Old Columbia PikeEllicott City, MD 21043

Super nice park with paved walking trails around a small lake. See lots of critters, like deer, geese, frogs, and other birds. Nice place for a walk.

This is a cute little walking trail with an opportunity to see a little more variation in your typical suburban wildlife. There are nice spots to sit and its a very easy walk so its appropriate for younger kids.

This park is great. I saw so many different plants and animals: a turtle, a heron, Canadian geese, a variety of other birds, deer, ducks, fish, flowers, butterflies, and many, many other bugs. Gods creation at its best.

Ok. This is a tiny little park in Ellicott City off of Centennial road. The access is off Font Hill road. No real parking, just park along Font Hill. And, there are no facilities at all. The walk from the parking to the park is about a quarter mile. The loop around the pond about .3 miles. Lots of birds, deer, and turtles. Wheelchair accessible. Very flat. A very pleasant place for a nice morning or afternoon stroll.

This park is a gem tucked in the hustle and bustle of Ellicott City. It is a relatively underutilized facility compared to its more popular neighbor Centennial Park. Love its beauty and serenity.

It is a lovely and enjoyable neighborhood park. It has a very nice walking path, part of it is a boardwalk over water sections. At both entrances there are garbage containers and large signs with general information about the park and the nature habitat. There are free garbage bags should you need one if you bring a dog. In the large pond there is a gazebo with a bench. Two additional benches are located around the large pond. It is a rather quiet walking area.it is a great place to see fireflies during Firefly season. There are no restrooms.

I often rest here for my daily walks and although its a small park there are benches around and some water. Although I go there everyday I usually dont stay long because of the humidity and there isnt much to do.
