  • Ask the park person nicely and you may get to park in Lot C, which is the closest to the hole. Pretty amazing swimming hole where the water is 70 degrees year round.

  • Not gonna lie. I thought the width of the well would have been bigger but it was absolutely beautiful to see. We didn’t go during swim season and that was because it was quiet and there were few...

  • Beautiful is all I can say. This park is small but well worth a visit. The well is the star attraction but the hiking paths are good and the bird watching stand is new. The only negative is that there are restrictions if you wish to swim in it, but that is understandable, it’s small. The swimming restrictions are seasonal and by reservation only. Pets are not allowed at the well or the trail leading to it.
  • Very nice hiking trails. Lots to see and walk, not just the well. The well is very beautiful and clear with fish swimming inside. Trails are easy to navigate with clear signage on the route you need to take. The have an indoor nature center with some things to see as well as a a video of a dive exploring the underwater well to watch. There are multiple things for kids to do as well. They even have a large loose parts play area to build things.
