Love this place! Walk, run, skate, board bike! Family environment so please be mindulf of children around. Dog friendly. Leashed and self pick up. People are respectful and typically call out if passing on right or left. Plenty of benches along routes for rests or chats.

The grounds were beautiful and the salt mill was neat for the wedding. The only thing I recommend is that they have the upstairs staged for a getting ready suite for the wedding. I wanted to do photos of her upstairs but the background would have been Christmas storage/decorations/boxes and junk.

Celery Flats is a historic place (mid 1800s) on the Portage Creek Bicentennial Park Trail. A nice stop to get off the bike and walk around an old school house, a manor house, and an open-air amphitheater. All joyfully well kept.

The City of Portage has done a fantastic job of renovating this park. The new bathrooms and picnic shelter are great. There is a new parking lot with lots of parking spaces. This park has access to miles of paved trail.

The grounds on which this trail was blazed/ created were previously the same area in which my Grandparents built their home and lived for more than 50 years. I have many fond memories of growing up and playing as a young child on these grounds/ property. I absolutely love that this land has been preserved for nature.

Actually it was my first time being there in over a year and the place has changed for the better! Parking is nicer and easier! Walking was a lot nicer with more benches and the area was just beautiful! It was a Pokemon community day but the people were nice and friendly and we saw a birthday party going on along with a wedding also! I Definately will be going back there more often to do my walking!

Super awesome park, if you take a left from the parking lot and keep walking past the little pond follow the trail until you reach the cutest little river. Theres a nice bench to sit on that was dedicated in memory of a young girl who passed away. If you look to the right of the bench theres a little cove where these awesome blue and black butterfly type insects live they have four wings! And the blue on them in super bright and beautiful, here is a picture of them if you can spot it. Anyway better to see in person.. check it out.

Celery flats is a very beautiful park. It was a little busy when I went because of senior pictures but I cant blame them. There are so many good scenic locations and the color on the trees was stunning. The trails are very wide and paved. Its a great place to walk, bike, or roller skate. Even though the bikes share the trail its never an issue because everyone is respectful and the paths are so wide.

Lovely city park, intertwining walking/cycling paths, historical buildings, and seclusion from the hustle an bustle of a major shopping area. Once on the paths you forget that you are in an urban area.
