First time visiting these trails and I thought the trails were very clean and well maintained. There are multiple trails to choose from. This is a great place to get a quick walk in.

Beautiful reserve full of wildlife. It looks different every time we go there, depending on the season. Such a cool place to hike/walk and a fun playground. Bathrooms are decent. My family absolutely loves coming here.

A nice area. Well maintained trails. Playground and picnic tables. My only issue was I didnt find a map of the trails and they arent well marked, so we just hiked aimlessly. Also worth noting that dogs arent allowed in the Nature preserve area.

Like the long walkway through the Bog. Unique, compared to many of the trails around canton.

The best. A left behind glacial remnant. A different world with rare species.

Had a nice hike with a new friend of mine there, its cool but watch out snakes, you never know where theyre laying at... Poison ivies can also make you uncomfortable for few days if ever you were exposed to these...

I grew up here and now that I have a long term partner and a kid still find myself coming here. It is a great yet relaxing walk through some beautiful nature. The sounds make you relax while you get to have some daily exercise and loving happy family smiles!

The bog is a very nice hike in the woods with varied landscapes

Review №15

This is a very nice walk into an area usually not accessible. The walkway is maintained well, but has left most of the nature untouched. The small walk through the woods to get to and from the bog is a nice addition to the bog walk. Its nice to go several times a year to see the changes with each season. There is also a small playground and restrooms near the parking lot.

Beautiful preserve with a great boardwalk. The kids loved it!

Nice quiet place to walk. Scenic views that are different from the norm in Stark County. This park offers some dog friendly trails, but the boardwalk around the bog doesnt allow them. Make sure to bring bug spray for a good experience in the summer months!

Humans have certainly left their mark behind (trash) but it is still beautiful. I encourage everyone to visit and feel free to pick up any trash you see left behind

Great place to take yard waste, if you are a Jackson Township resident. The ball fields and the Bogs trails are a delight!

Well kept short trails and fairly nice scenery. We didnt see any animals but we had a noisy seven year old so it wasnt a surprise.

Review №33

Always a fun place to take the kids for a walk. Its a plastic wood walkway through a bog. Lots of wild life and cool things to look at. Bring bug spray if its getting dark! Skeeters will eat you alive!

Its a nice park with trails. If you are going on their board walk I would definitely recommend bug repellent. The bugs are crazy bad when youre walking out there. The rest of the trails dont seem to have any problems with the bugs.

Fantastic place of natural landscaping that once covered the Jackson and beldon region. Be careful of the mosquitoes in the summer. This is a nice place to explore ohio wildlife without being invasive. I only wish we had more land like this!
