Decent local spot to go wildlife viewing and/or bird watching; I've gotten a handful of bird pictures there. Always see people fishing there too. There are a few picnic tables around the main lake to eat at. Bring bug spray in the warmer seasons because the bugs are real bad. Without fail regardless of day or time, there is always some sketchy car parked there with someone just sitting/sleeping in it. Creeps me out whenever I go as I am typically alone.
Good place for fishing, hiking, kayaking. I added pictures of old abandoned barn that can be found on the main trail.
I had a great opportunity to take my kids hiking at Governor Bridge Natural Area today. We walked for about a mile and a half, mostly around the beautiful 8 acre lake. It helped that it was a gorgeous afternoon. There were geese on the pond, the water was clear and the air was crisp. I'll be out there again soon. I recommend this place to anyone who's in the mood for local nature.
Several trails, couple of ponds, very scenic.
A hidden gem! Incredible diversity of birds and wildlife. I saw a bat swimming here!
