      Wonderful Place

      Great little side trip on our drive from Mobile to Kansas City. Museum/gift shop is pet-friendly. The short trail was an easy walk and very interesting. The park and campgrounds are well maintained and are gorgeous.

      Beautiful and Historic

      We took our two old Mini Aussie Shepherds on a morning walk through the short trail. There was plenty for them to see and smell. Very dog friendly and the terrain was easy for my older arthritic pup.

      A beautiful walk through history

      This is a unique place to enjoy a stroll through an ancient forest, and they have a museum and gift shop. My pup was welcome throughout, making this a perfect spot for a nice walk.
