It was absolutely amazing. I got lost but I just found the river bed and and followed it to find my way back. Very well kept, clean in every way. The water is completely clear. So many beautiful sights to see. 10/10 recommended. I recommend you plan at least a half a day to explore it fully. Its just the perfect place to go get lost in.Thank you for the great review, Jasmine! We're so glad you enjoyed your visit. Find more great places to explore and trail maps at acreslandtrust.org.

Such a lovely place! I can’t wait to come back get with my kids. The trail is awesome - lots of varying scenery, in and out of the woods, mostly shaded. One of the biggest oak trees I’ve ever seen, too! The rock-cut stream was really interesting. I definitely look forward to coming back in the spring or after a rain to see the waterfalls in their full glory. It took me about an hour to meander the main circuit. My dog liked it too!

ACRES Land Trust does a great job with all of their parks, and this one is no exception. Well maintained trails and several great spots to photograph the falls.Nicholas, thank you for your kind words, but we can't take all the credit! We're so grateful for the volunteers and 2,000+ members who protect Hathaway Preserve at Ross Run and many other special places.

Are there handcap accessible trails?

No, most ACRES trails are earthen or grassy paths. This preserve also includes some hilly terrain. However, ACRES has plans to install an accessible overlook trail at Dustin, Johnson & Whitehurst preserves later this year. Follow us on Facebook or check out our website for updates: https://acreslandtrust.org/ Thanks for your question!

They only allow people in the water twice a year. Next time is in August, right before school starts.
