So serene! Great walk to kill an hr. The paths are well marked. Just watch the roots they are easy to trip on. And you will need to have balance in a couple of places. Definatly worth a quick trip. Some fishing too and I didnt see one patch of poison ivy!

Very nice, calm place. Good trail to run around both ponds. Shallow water for fishing.

Nice trails to explore. Several offshoots to bring you to water edge. Bridge on northern end across brook.

Great place to walk and relax, says no dogs allowed but people still walk their dogs there

Its a great place if you want to get your steps in I see nature at its finest its a beautiful place I even saw an eagle swoop down and grab a fish from the lake nature at its finest A+ A+

It was an amazing place. Great for all the ages.

Nice walk around the lake on wooded path.

Beautiful to walk through on a nice fall day...

Loved it. Great place. You can fish there also. There are a lack of benches but pretty amazing

Found a baby turtle. Named it Carl. Day was awesome.

Big, scenic preserve with lots of nice, wide trails and fishing spots. Great for kids too.

Great place if you have a day off for fishing! Some Sunfish inside. However lots of plants making it hard to fish!

Nice place for a walk. Nothing too elaborate.

A clean park that we were able to visit to go fishing. The social distancing guidelines didnt need to be enforced because everyone we ran into at the park were already enforcing it themselves.

Beautiful place in wantagh ny

Beautiful walk thru nature

Beautiful beautiful beautiful place. Many birds fish and plants, theres a chicken roaming around which is not a joke at all ive seen them twice idk how they identify so ill say they but theyre great i love this place i saw this rad little buggu guy and idk what he is but hes cool too

Clean water, easy trail, a bit noisy due to close to highway

Very nice for a brisk walk, lots of birds on the lake, etc. However the entrances are small (little hard to find), the path is narrow (especially at the entrance near the bridge), its also bumpy with tree roots (If you are clumsy or drag your feet youll likely trip unless you constantly watch your step).In conclusion if the cons dont bother you its a 4 out of 5, but if they do its a 2 out 5.

Love it...

Always a peaceful walk in and around the lakes. It was windy but the birds didnt seem to mind. Some good photos.

Beautiful lakes with water lilies and plenty of birds

Because its peaceful....been going there 45 yrs or so....

This place sucks Baldwin silver lake is better and it is safer for kids

Amazing viewing of nature..

Great place to go for a walk along a 1.7 mile trail on the north side or a bit shorter on the south side. Park is broken up into two parts, north of the bridge and south. Its an easy walk on both sides with great views and wildlife. I only go here to take a walk many others I see here are fishing thats actually a popular spot for fishing so I assume they do pretty good. Cant go in the water but you can walk and fish Im assuming its catch and release.

Trails are well groomed and the park is very clean. Be sure to bring a camera and binoculars.

Good fishin

Most of the shoreline is covered with brush and trees limiting the places where you can fish so its not a good place to bring kids fishing because they would need more room to spread out and less trees to prevent their lines from getting caught. Some people fishing there were standing in the lake wearing special gear to get around the problem of a lot of trees on the shoreline, but if youre a casual fisherman, you prob wouldnt have the gear for that. This place is probably better suited for a simple, leisurely nature walk than fishing for the average person looking to make use of it. Also, the trail is very narrow at spots, there were a lot of bugs when I went (It was only still April at the time) and there are only about 8 parking spaces at the main entrance. If the spots are full, youd have to park a couple of blocks away and walk back, although there are probably other places you can park and enter at different points further up along the lake.

Beautiful walking around the lake

Beautiful lakes and a nice easy himimg trail.

Its absolutely gorgeous here. Peaceful and serene, the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of life.

Im here very often since its the closest trails to me. I love this place, even though its not very big and part or it is right next to Wantagh parkway. I love the flowing stream that goes over a bunch if rocks and then under a bridge we walk over. Its all dirt trails, which is what I prefer. Ive seen swans, mallards, a hawk, american coots, mudd shoveler ducks, red-winged blackbirds, woodpeckers, etc. Fishing is allowed here but there are spots with lots or lily pads where its easy to get your line caught. Ive seen several geese injured due to fishing hook and fishing line that wasnt properly disposed of, which was horrible to see. One goose swelled 7 feet of fishing line and another (a mom with baby geese) had a hook lodged into her neck. Also teenagers come here and leave beer cans and litter and even break glass bottles so it can be messy at times

Love this place but always water are with too much plant u cant even fishing..

Lets go fishing

Nice place to bring the kids for memories, my son and I have years worth.. the lake is nice hard fish due to growth and I need license..

Great place to go for a walk and think

Good fishing bring a fly rod and waders if you want a bit more challenge, hope the crappie dont get fished out before summer like last year try catch and release

Peaceful. great place to get away and be one with nature. just dont get lost off the trail tracks. that was am experience ill never forget when I did! and watch out for those prickly branches.

A lite fishing experience and mostly a dog walk path around the pond. Pretty in Fall, slippery in Winter. Not a long walking trail for hikers. Decent bird watching with the swans and ducks.

Very nice walk around 2 lakes with wildlife, some spots could us directioal signs

Beautiful surroundings but fishing is extremely tough

Beautiful. Just gorgeous scenery. I love heading down and sitting next to either one of the lakes, truly magnificent.

Nice view,looking even nice outside of the park

Prettier than a picture

Beautiful, quiet trails!

A nice place to take a nature walk.

Peace and peace and peace you will definitely feel betterBest place

Excellent place to dump a body

Beautiful visuals

Looove this spot actually have fish that will put up a fight... Definitely going back... No lake sand tho you take steps to the water but steps are wide enough to hold foldable chairs

Love this place!

The lakes are full of garbage. They have also to spay for the mosquitos.

Favorite hidden gem

I grew up fishing and swimming and ice skating in Twin Lakes, and just hanging out with friends by the shore, its changed a lot but still a nice place to walk in nature and chill

Took grandchildren on a nature hike. Very enjoyable.

Great LARGE nature preserve!

Great place to visit, but I sincerely expected more from it, it has a great potential and a lot to grow, unfortunately I had to deal with a lot of mosquitos there, authorities must restore green areas at some point.

Lake twins preserve

Awesome lakes to fish. Nice bass, trout, and pickerel in there. The only bad thing about this lake is dec stops by a lot trying to harass the fishermen but doesnt see they put a stop to all the druggies that smoke n drink in the woods on the one part of the lake

Lovely fishing and nice view

Great place for a day trip, or just to think your own thoughts.

I use to smoke weed here all the time lol

Nice and quiet

I love this place but it needs to be restored to its golden days. Re introduce native plants and animals . Clear the invasive lilypads and other plants like the thorns.

This place use to be so beautiful but now its run down and needs work

A great place to explore during a relaxing walk.

I practically grew up on those Lakes always enjoyed the beautiful scenery

Good place to toss a lure and relax

Peaceful nature walk great for spending time with the family beautiful lakes

Quiet. Great for walking. Fishing. Take the kids.

Nice place for a walk

Nice lake, a lot of grass on top of the lake in the summer.
