What a hidden gem right here in the CSRA. There are three main trails and they are very well marked.

Beautiful place to spend late afternoon as the sun was setting.

Very well taken care of with nice ponds and well labeled trails. One even takes you to a nice over look of the Savannah River where an old steam boat washed up many years ago.
