Beautiful area, full of ponds and flanked by Spring Creek. Great place to relax for an afternoon. Beautiful hidden gem.
Do not try to drive to this location. You can only access this via the Spring Creek Greenway. Park at Pundt park and hike, bike, or horseback ride a little over a mile to here or park at Carter park for around a 3 mile distance. Stahl Preserve has a nice little pond with lots of cypress trees in it. Fishing is catch and release. If youre lucky you may see a beaver or river otter. Plenty of benches and trash cans. Halfway between Carter and Pundt park is a water cooler to refill your water bottles. Hiked an 11 mile loop from Carter park to Pundt park. The 2 extra miles was exploring trails off of the Greenway trail. Was exciting to see a Piliated Woodpecker, Mother racoon with 4 babies, Green Heron, soft-shell turtle, rabbit, and many more birds, butterflies, and dragonflies. The hike took a total of 5 hours and 15 minutes with 4 hours of actual hike time. It was dusk during the last 2 miles and I heard a hog squealing. Then about a mile later heard a lot of hogs at the edge of the treeline. Precinct 4 officers take periodic strolls through the trail to make sure everyone is fine. They will offer a ride or assistance if need be. Id advise not going on a Saturday. You hear gun shots from the nearby shooting range nearly the whole way. Last weekend I hiked the section from Carter to Jesse Jones park and didnt hear any gun fire.
Really good place for biking and hiking
Nice Park, my son and me went to ride our bicycles and enjoyed it a lot.
Great hike, bike and ride trails. Ponds are ok to fish. Has dog park!
Emerged in nature its peaceful nice to walk, ride a bike or even a horse. Blissful when canoeing on spring creek.
