You know i love to hike - finally took the time review this location. I would've loved it more if…read moreit was a loop because walking back seems less fun because you know how it would take to get back. Lol! Not a lot of benches and water source is very limited - so please be aware of that. There's alot of entrance points and the trail does go far; on the day i was exploring you had people more riding compared to walking. The trail was very clean which i loved of course - i would definitely suggest going hiking there. Happy hiking!!!

The Kiwanis Trail is an eight mile paved recreational trail for biking, jogging and walking built…read moreon an old railroad bed between the Michigan cities of Tecumseh and Adrian. The trail runs through beautifully secluded woodlands with plenty of welcomed shade on a hot summer day. As with most "Rails-to-Trails" in this part of the state, the trail runs over mostly flat terrain which my wife and I found perfect for cruising. I also noticed that several sections of the trail had been re-paved since the last time I rode this trail making for some very smooth riding. As the trail enters the college town of Adrian, the surroundings become more urban as the Kiwanis Trail becomes the Riverview Trail in the city proper. In this section, the trail runs through Trestle Park with its historic amphitheater - home of the Adrian City Band. Convenient parking can be found at both trailheads: Trestle Park in Adrian and the intersection of Ives and Green just south of Tecumseh. Today we thoroughly enjoyed riding the full 17 miles back and forth between Tecumseh to Adrian...a 5-star ride all the way.

This park/nature area is made for hiking. I wouldn't start here if you're a beginner hiker because…read morealthough the area is relatively small, the trails are steep and narrow! Great for a workout, especially if you live nearby. Speaking of living nearby, I wish there was a better-drawn map of the trails. There is a map on the A2 Parks and Rec website, but sometimes, the trails led you to the nearby culdesac. One trail also leads you to the basketball court.

The kids also road the bikes around the sites and up and down the main hill. Our campsites were close to the park and beach, which was nice. The bathroom facilities were good, but the showers are dated and the lights would turn off and on randomly. We did get warnings from the park ranger for noise, I guess our neighbors weren't fans of our karaoke. It was before quite hours so me and my group were bummed. I do wish there was more activities, like a basketball court, at the site.

So, after daytripping Waterloo for years I finally camped there. Met some family for a…read moremini-reunion at the Sugarloaf Lake campground. I didn't have high expectations, but came away with a very favorable impression. What I liked most? Probably the quiet. Yes, there are times of the day that got a little noisy due to kids playing and dogs barking, but you're going to get that in any state park campground, and I gotten it much worse. Little to no road noise and generally pleasant neighbors. Bathrooms are fairly clean though in need of an update. Hot water never ran short in the showers. What I didn't like? My site. I picked what had to be the spot least shaded in the hottest parts of the day. Fortunately the rest of my family had shadier spaces and we hung out with them. Avoid site 92 unless you're camping early or late in the season. Generally, the camping area is fairly open, though a lot of it has at least fair shade most of the time. Our sites were on the far edge of the campground loop--it seemed like things were generally busier and louder close to the driveway into the camping area. Ice and firewood are available at the check in station and both are reasonably priced. Great for a chill weekend getaway without driving too far from urban southeast Michigan.

Muddy but fun! My…read morekids love digging around and collecting rocks. I took them to fossil park and everyone had a great time. The park is easy to find. It has a nice pavilion for eating lunch and restrooms. There is a nice walking section around the park. The fossil area is easy to get to with many signs explaining what to look for. My kids were excited that they found fossils right away. Mostly shell looking fossils plus some pieces of coral. We each brought home a small bag of items to sort through. Since everything was money it was hard to rinse anything off there so we had to wait until we get home to see what we found. Lots of things that we still need to research. Highly recommend them adding a sluice style washing area like the gem mining setups you see at campgrounds. Plus a great playground.

My husband and I brought our pups here for a little outdoor time during social distancing and despite it being a gorgeous Saturday early-evening we didn't run into any one else on any of the trails we explored. So it's a really great spot to enjoy some outdoor adventures without worrying about getting too close to other people. Beautifully maintained, tons of parking and pup friendly! Just remember bug spray if you get into the woods/near the river. I forgot and got eaten up quite a bit!

Everyone says hey with a smile. What I really like is they have many different walking/running/biking trails. Want the gravel thru the woods type trail, they got it. Want a flat concrete type trail they got it. Want to track how long you walk/run there is a clear map to tell ya. Plenty of parking although it gets busy around 9amish. I'm always on a walking trail because yeah running long distance has never been for me. I take my fanny pack for my phone n keys and off I go. They are kind of back in style, right? Its a nice park and they are actually adding more trails. Recommended

This does have trails along Paint Creek, but the main focus is on sports at this park. It has softball and baseball diamonds and tennis courts and is used for cross-country skiing and school nature activities. There's also a large playground in it. The park has nice, big, shady pavilions and picnic tables in more sunny areas as well. It's very close to the local Meijer and Target, so if you run out of supplies, you don't even have to get in your car to get some extra paper plates or potato salad.
