I love taking my dogs for a run out here, they love the open space! You do not need 4x4 to go through the access roads but always be careful of rocks and deeper puddles .

Pretty good hike! There’s definite evidence of extracurricular activities in the forest, but don’t let that stop you from climbing to the top of profile rock or exploring the trails. Tons of evergreen trees. Pictures are of the view from the top of the rock. Be careful as private property does border the forest in several locations

Great place to take children of all ages! Amazing hiking/walking trails. If you like the nature and everything that comes with it you'll love the trails. Also has a wading pool for children and parents. They also have sites where you can set up for the day with charcoal grills. Bathrooms on site.
