    Some weird people hanging around in the park. View is beautiful, but feels unsafe. Step out the park for 2 mins and drove away.

    Beautiful Park! Big huge lake! The bathrooms could use more attention. Nice fishing spot!read more

    Bones spears and…read moremastodons Samuel Butts is an interesting fellow. An amateur archaeologist with an almost magical ability to find things. The type of guy that tells people what he is going to find before he actually finds it. He's been prowling this area for several decades and has found all kinds of bones, spears and arrow heads, pottery and even the remains of a 10,000 year old mastodon. He just doesn't talk about archeology, he's the type that goes out and finds the stuff so others can talk about it. Samuel also happens to play a mean lead electric guitar. Quite a character, sort of a cross between Indiana Jones and B.B. King. He was instrumental in getting this park developed into an archaeological teaching area, especially for the purpose of getting kids interested in archeology and the past. The park was named in his honor in 2004 and is quite lovely. The center of the park has a nice lake with a fountain that has a long boardwalk heading out toward the center. Lots of benches and picnic areas as well as walking and jogging paths. Not all that large at about 30 acres but certainly a nice place to stretch you legs. A great place that anyone can enjoy. You can take a stroll around the park and read about the cool history of the place. There is even one display were you can hear Samuel himself speak. Cool stuff. A wonderful park that will stimulate the new generation of archaeologists.
