Great little launch for canoes and kayaks, though it can dry up during low tide. There is plenty of shade for hot days. Great trails and wildlife, nice playground for kids and generally clean bathrooms. There are some areas to grill and a tall tower just a short walk through the park to really enjoy some beautiful views. Many really neat bird species like to make appearances here.

Great free adventure right off the highway. We were the only ones on the trail. It was about 93 degrees so the playground wasnt a good option. The bird watch tower was wonderful minus peoples trash in some areas. Lots of wildlife to be seen.

Clean,quiet and just a great place to hang out with the kids! Long fishing pier is kept nice with a cover in case it rains or the sun gets too hot. Its right in the heart of the Rose Bay marsh, so fishing is pretty good. I think the camping is for non-profits, which kinda sux, but everything else from the nature walk to the playground with covered pavilion is nice.

Its beautiful. Theres a playground, fishing, walking trail and plenty of secluded picnic areas. I didnt like how short the hiking trail was. Also, there was trash in some areas such as beer bottles in the water and take out styrofoam containers in bushes near a picnic area

We used to LOVE this place, we’ve been taking our beagle puppy for almost 6 months. We absolutely loved the trail leading to the water, Luna loves swimming! A few weeks ago we took her back and were walking the trails when we were attacked by a swarm of bees I got stung at least 3 times and my poor puppy was stung over 10-15 times! We had to sit there and pluck stingers out of her skin. Those stings continued to turn in to blisters and eventually scabbed over, now over a month later she still has these bumps all over her! I don’t recommend taking your pup here during the summer :/ when it’s cooler out we MIGHT try again.

I really like this place. They have a pavilion with a bathroom right by the playground. Convenient for little ones. The playground is very small though. Theres a fishing dock and a small area for kayaks. They have a campground, but it is for special interest groups only. My favorite part is the trail. There is an observation tower with a beautiful view. The trail does lead to a dead end or water if the tide is in or its been raining a lot. It isnt exactly a dead end, but the trail itself ends in a semi wooded area. Along the trail are picnic tables and one porta potty... that is always being moved around.

Nice maintained camp grounds for scouts. Mosquitoes or noseems will likely kill you.Launch for kayak is accessible but not doable for boats. Easy access to the river.Dock and pier are good for walking and fishing.Playground and covered picnic is available as well as a hiking trail. Look for the geocachesSheriff has a deputy living on site so never a concern for safety.

Great park. Very tranquil with beautiful views. Great place to spend quiet time and enjoy nature. It isnt large but just right to walk around on theirs trails, bird watch or fish off their pier. You could also have a picnic there.

Nice area. Fishing pier. Kayak launching spot. Picnic area. Lovely camping sites but no one allowed to camp there. Organized groups only so it is empty. Too bad. Nice hiking with an observation tower. Ok bird watching .

The kayak launch is inaccessible muck within a few hours of low tide. If you use this launch be prepared to not be able to come back in until the next high tide.

Review №25

Trails were pretty well-maintained when we were there, recently mowed. Seems like a good place to fish, if you enjoy that. Playground is pretty old and rusty/rickety. Some scenic views. Tons of bugs.

I went with my 2 kids, ages 4 and 6. We really enjoyed the short primitive trail out to the bird observation deck. We then used scooters to quickly get over to the dual fishing piers. Both the observation and fishing piers had covered roofs to get out of the sun! saw a Roseate Spoonbill for the 1st time

The park is not well maintained.. There were no trail maps. After slogging through wet areas to get to an observation tower, we took a trail with benches and marker signs that ended at the road. We then had to walk a half mile on the route 1 to get back to the entrance of the park. Not sure if the caretaker should be flying a black American flag that people can interpret in different ways.

Review №93

Awesome park. EXCEPT when we stayed there, they gave us a bunk gate code. after 730pm we had to call a sheriff to let us in/out.being locked in was TERRIFYING. I was responsible for my groups safety. being locked in is a total safety hazard.that they gave us a fake Gate code rather than being honest adds insult to injury.I got out.. thank goodness.also the people (care takers) who live in the park said we dont have the key and if we did we wouldnt help you anyway...absurd.
