Lots of plants for sale. I loved being able to go all over. Even into their greenhouses to see how they operate. The variety of plants is amazing. And they even have things to do for children. This is not a free garden. There is a fee when you enter. Totally worth it.

It's a great spot to stop, take in the scenery, and watch the wildlife. The park is clean, spacious, and has plenty of open green space for families, picnics, or just getting outside. Definitely one of the nicest parks in the Louisville area and well worth a visit!

They have different spots to park, kids playground, porta potties across from that. Plenty of picnic tables, benches & one spot undercover with picnic tables. Oh & a tennis court!

I know the primary use of this park is for horseback riding, with hiking as a secondary use, and…read moretrail running probably not even on the minds of the people who created and maintain this property. Nevertheless, I went for a trail run here and had a blast! There are some very technical sections, and some challenging hills (a couple of which I had to walk up), mixed in with easier, flatter non-technical stretches. Some really fun creek crossings, and on Trail 7 the creek *is* the trail for a while. Trail 9 (Snipe Trail section) is almost completely overgrown making it fun to try to follow, especially while running. There are a few small logs to leap over. Yes, occasionally there are big divots and mudpuddles where the horses trod through the mud, but that's part of the fun, IMO. My only small gripe is the signage. It looks like the signage was great when originally installed, but has not been well maintained. Much of it was severely faded, and occasionally confusing. Got pretty lost at the end of my run before I finally made my way back to the parking lot.

The space is bigger than I expected, with separate areas for small and large dogs, so it feels safe and comfortable no matter what kind of dog you have. There's plenty of room for dogs to run around and actually burn off energy, which is the whole point. It's also nice that there are things like shade, water access, and some agility features to keep them active instead of just running in an empty field. The overall vibe is relaxed, and it's a good place to let your dog socialize while you chat with. Overall, it's a great local dog park clean, spacious, and actually designed with dogs in mind.

There are tons of trails and places to walk the dog. The water looked dirty but there were lots of kids wading in the creek. There were large bugs /flies so be prepared with long sleeves and long pants. Overall, I think whoever has a chance to visit this park on a regular basis is very very lucky. It's so pretty and well maintained. The bathrooms were super clean.
