Visited as part of a road trip, due to it being known as part of the Bridgewater Triangle - an area with many reports of the paranormal. The forest in particular has notoriety for some murders that took place here, as well as various stories of satanic rituals and old folklore. It was easy to find, and we were pleasantly surprised by the amenities - picnic benches, rest rooms etc. We did have a wander about the trails, some of which had great light and were well signposted, and others were darker and more winding with denser trees. We used our EMF equipment and received messages that were threatening when we were in the darker trails, although none of us directly experienced any odd feelings or similar. It seemed a very active area.If you’re here for the spooks, maybe this review will provide a different perspective to the usual family hiking feedback. If you’re going for the supernatural side of things, remember to be respectful.

I liked this hidden gem! Splash pad and cookout areas for the kids, some history and various trails. Some reviews have mentioned wet trails but they weren't too wet--it is the forest after all! the trails were also fine to walk. I will say it is not well-marked but it's fairly easy to get around! Enjoyed it!

I loved this. There’s plenty of walking trials, so you’re not overlapping with anyone. It was so peaceful and serene. This was about an hour of a walk, maybe a little longer, but it wasn’t bad. Make sure you watch the line markers on the tree to follow the path and stay hydrated! There’s barrooms at the entrance, too.

....the constant, annoying flies. Bring bug spray. We did the shortest loop trail of about 2 miles in about 40 minutes. All open road. The area is huge (an the trail guide and blazes only OK) so the ranger gave us advice to prevent us getting lost “always go right”. Note the various activities allowed on the various trails.
