I've had to tell multiple people to get their dogs away from mine because they can't control them or mind you even see where there at (they're either on the other side of the lake or too busy on their phones to manage their dogs). Last time I checked good recall should be as soon as you say your dogs name they come or stay next to you not the million times you have to yell it. I love this lake for my dog but the owners of other dogs there ruin it with their lack of control and arrogance. Not all dogs are expected to have play dates, "socialize", or hangout with their dogs there. My dog just wants to swim, play fetch, and be left alone by other dogs without them trying to assert their dominance over him. People are so entitled there and lazy.

The park does a great job organizing time slots so the hill doesn't get too busy. Multiple lanes to sled from and the conveyer belt saves so much time and energy of exhausting yourself just on the trip up. The track is fun for racing and group tubing for all ages. Highly recommend for a fun day outing!

I came here in the winter and really loved walking the trails throughout the center. It helped that one of my friends, Dan, manages the programs here and would point out all the cool trees, plants, and general history as we walked along. He truly made my first time at Woldumar so memorable and his passion for this nature center truly shines through in everything he does - even when he's off the clock just showing boring ol' me around! I've heard so much of all the work Dan has put into this place over the years and he truly makes Woldumar shine bright for all those who come and visit, whether for an afternoon or for a summer-long program! I imagine this place overrun with kids and adults alike when the weather is great and can only imagine how much fun it would be to experience this place in the summertime. There is truly something for everyone here and definitely recommend this if you're looking for a low-key place where not a ton of people will be with some majorly high-key fun and exploration!

Rolling hills dotted with trees make it fun to play hide and seek (they can't see you over the hill). Plenty of picnic benches, some even with covered shade in the summer. Poop bags available. The gate mechanism is clever, better than other dog parks; gate can swing inward or outward. Trees line the edges and you can go on a mini stroll into the woods and reach the other side where there is a little dog pier for swimming. Open only in the summer months. You can buy a daily parking permit or an annual pass. If you forget or didn't know, as we did the first time, they leave you a gentle reminder sticker on your windshield. Restrooms on premises. Easy, plentiful parking. Friendly folks. There are dogs of all sizes and so far all of them have been very friendly.

I appreciate having places to walk around. When I went to Huckleberry Railroad last year I did not…read morerealize this was an extension on the other side, so that makes the area even better if you are interested in outdoor adventures. Where we parked there was a path to get to the falls. They are not really falls, just a man made dam with concrete steps on several levels to check out the water. I could see people were able to have canoes on the lake and there was a beach and playground off to the distance on the other side. Another part of the park maybe? A lot of people were walking around with their kids or come go fishing. So it was a nice family area. I realize I am more of a resort pool with a lazy river girly, so I am not in love with the many swarms of gnats but that is me. If you are outdoorsy, this is a nice place to visit. Paired with Huckleberry railroad would be perfect.

We love the parent and child swings although one of them are super squeaky. There was so much to do with this park. We saw people playing basketball on the super nice courts. We saw disc golfers. They were other kids at the playground, even at dusk. It was very close to a residential neighborhood, but everybody seems super nice. I think there was a dog park too? It was huge so we didn't explore the park very much because it was dusk and we needed the kids to get some energy out.
