Overview

About

With over 8 miles of hiking trails, canoeing and kayaking along Cedar Creek, and a glimpse into America's cranberry farming past, this park is a haven for nature enthusiasts and history buffs alike.

When to go

  • Check yourself for ticks after visiting, as they may be present year-round.
  • Pets are welcome but must be leashed and cleaned up after.
  • Be bear aware; never feed or approach bears and report any aggressive behavior.
  • Remember, no swimming is allowed in the park.
