Nice little wooded metro park near Dublin Retirement Village. Great place to walk. There is access to the greater community trail. Great parking.
I loved visiting there in spring.. nice and calm place for walk and jogging.. or even if you want to sit next to the creek..
My best friend and his fiance had their wedding here on 8-21. Very scenic area. Would be A great spot fore nature photographers, I imagine.
Beautiful local park with a 2 mile walking trail, tree arboretum, ponds, and lots of trees.
We walk on the paths of this Nature Reserve almost every day. It has wide, beautifully maintained bridges, paved paths and some dirt paths to explore. It’s fun to learn about all the tree species in the arboretum. We see deer, blue herons, hawks, gold finches and many other birds. What a treasure!
Shared use paths are well maintained. There are multiple ponds with fish, and an arboretum of Ohio trees each labeled. The paths connect with the Dublin shared use path system for many miles of adventure.
Beautiful path near ponds through trees with leaves changing. Nice for biking, jogging or walking with or without dogs. Have a map bc there are several paths and its easy to get confused
Beautiful trails, picturesque creeks, and abundant wildlife.
Peaceful green area park with good access to bike trails. Very well maintained. Several items of interest.
I normally love this place, but the pond is gross. Dublin is working on it or something. You can normally fish, but not right now. Will rate again once fixed.
Ive been going for walks here pretty frequently recently. I wish that it was a little more isolated, but its still very pretty. The tree arboretum has some great trees! I cant wait to visit this place once the leaves start changing in the fall.
The most mindful and tranquil trail you will find in the Dublin vicinity. Upon entering this Reserve, you will encounter a cool breeze that entraps some of natures finest scents. Fantastic placing for walking and biking. The trail also has some hidden pathways within the trees that you may find intriguing. It also accompanys a marvelous pond that you can view from all directions from the path that besieges the water. The historic homestead is also a nice site to see: giving an inside look over the products of the Homstead Act in 1862 and prior.
Fall colors in full bloom! Beautiful yellows at ML Trabue.
The trail is popular among the locals. It has tranquil ponds and beautiful woods that have their distinct beauty all year round.
Really neat place that is tucked back off Post Rd. Ive lived near this area my entire life and didnt know about it! Great for photos and lots of trails/paths for walking or riding your bike. If you live close, its a nice little escape from the city.
Nice walking with acerbic scenic views
Great Walking trail midst lovely trees.(well labeled if you are interested) Shaded in areas. Highly recommend
This was a great place. Check out the Arboretum in the 1860s cabin! Beautifully manicured spaces. Im here for the first time when an Earth Day planting and put in a lot of great plants and the rest of the team did an enormous amount of invasive removal. Check out red trabue!
Great place to walk, run, or bike. Nice paved path that connects several other neighborhoods and smaller parks in a quiet tree covered corridor that follows a creek from the rec center to Karrer Middle School.
I love this trsil/park! Mainly because of the Karrer pond thats so close to it. It really is gorgeous any season at any time. They have paved paths and also unpaved l. The wooded areas are filled with amazing beautiful tall old trees. Typically you see a lot of wildlife both in and around the pond. A few families of deer like to settle in the tall grasses that the paths walk through. Chances are youll get a good glimpse of a family of deer. I advise you not to ice skate on the pond LOL. The Karrer pond can be fished without license and if proper size youre allowed to keep your catch. The pond has a dock and walkway with numerous benches and it Jets out far into the pond and it makes a perfect place for a family picnic or just a place to go sit and relax. Dublin does such a great job maintaining the parks and Im very grateful for it. Thanks you Dublin parks and rec!
Wonderful place to fish. Little ones enjoy being able to see fish from the dock, and there are some awesome fish in there. Biggest one Ive ever caught!
Finally a trail where its not over run with people. A quiet spot away from the over growing new things in Dublin
Very peaceful and serene, and a pretty challenging bike ride over from plain city
Lots of open space with access to Dublin multi use trails. Fishing pond about 5 minute walk from parking lot.
Great fishing spot. Lot of big largemouth bass, bluegill and catfish.
My favorite place to place to walk. Very picturesque woods around path.
If youre buying a house along it, great. If youve travelled a thousand miles to visit unless youre from Gary Indiana youll be disappointed.
This park is wonderful! Beautiful trail, the log cabin is cool. Lots of pokemon go stops and a couple gyms.
Great nature preserve. Trails were great and quiet
Nice little neighborhood park with walking trails. Located in an upscale neighborhood with many shops and restaurants options close by.
Very nice and peaceful
Cool place just to walk or bike. The path is pretty well maintained and the ponds are especially nice in the summer.
Its pretty, the boardwalk around the edge of the lake is picturesque. Easy walk if youre short on time. Usually quite.
The arboretum has a diverse number of trees that are well marked by a placard with tree identification/name
Nice little nature reserve. Quiet. Nicely maintained trails and paths.
Nice park for walking or bike riding. Three ponds you can fish at too.
Just want to say thank you to all helping with the honeysuckle mitigation. Really looking forward to seeing more Ohio native plants.
Beautiful trails and well maintained by community.

A great find! We will be exploring this park and the trails more.
You need to put an umbrella on the table on the dock please. It’s sweltering otherwise.
Very nice park. Great for lunch break and a quick walk afterward
Great park with lots of nature for kids to check out

Nice woodsy walk makes you feel your getting out in nature.

2022-04-28Awesome park in Dublin OH. Park by the Recreation Center and walk all the way to the Carter middle school and back. Walking 10 000+ steps will get you and your family active:). Not crowded, beatiful nature and wildlife.

2022-05-27Excellent little excursion if you are into the outdoors, nature, and beautiful vistas.

2022-06-12Beautiful walk through all sorts of trees on a well maintained path. The old cabin is a nice addition to a pleasant walk. Looking through the identified trees is a great way to get familiar with the look of varieties of mature species which grow well in the area. The path also connects to Indian run and Coffman trails which makes for a long relaxing running/biking way.

2021-01-23We were there as part of Dublin parks and rec Polar hike series. It was fabulous, we had a guide telling us all about the wildlife, the history, the trees, seriously an amazing adventure! I highly recommend! Only draw backs were it was 20 degrees and no bathrooms:)

2019-05-09Live in the area and thought we would check this out. It’s awesome! You can connect the trails to Indian Meadows Park and make a great little walk. We got 4 miles in and enjoyed it immensely. Well maintained and not too crowded. There weren’t restrooms so if you gotta go hit it before you head out!

2022-05-20Horrible Park, a bear almost ate me, but luckily I fought back and saved three babies. And then, when I thought I was save, a giant frog came and tried to eat my babies. But besides the bear and the giant frog, great Park, really recomended (:
