Neat park in a beautiful swampy area with a fair amount of boardwalk trails. Unfortunately the park is marred by litter spread throughout, graffiti that is especially bad in some sections, noise from neighboring boat ramp traffic, and overall negligence to trail maintenance. Many sections of the boardwalk had broken boards, and others were soft.


I love going here to have lunch and listen to nature, eat breakfast and watch the sun rise, and overall has a great variety of private sitting areas for different size groups in case you don't want to necessarily share space. There's a two story gazebo. Only complaint is the upkeep of the board walk. Lots of places have boards that have rotted through or is uneven due to the support beams sinking or shifting over time making it unsafe. They've been working on repairing some spots but the boards are uneven, a huge tripping hazard and some places nails sticking out, so be cautious walking around, especially with animals and children.
Just a nice peaceful go to place. Board walks intermingling over shallow, swampy like areas, boat ramps, lots of trees. Between Saraland and Chickasaw. Pic nic areas, just no working rest rooms! There are port a pottys near boat launch area. All the board walks were built just a few years ago. It was pretty much a nothing kind of place until then! Never had any incidents or heard of any here. Usually not very crowded. Very near the 4 lane highway but still reasonably quiet and relaxing. *** Newest pics are from October 16, 2021, sunset until about 7:00-7:30ish. You'll see that there is no lighting, so if you decide to venture out after dark, bring light! Also watch out for spider webs, which can stretch from 1 side of the board walk to the other!! Not sure if there is a cut off time for visiting. Have never seen a sign or anything stating a close time. Seems pretty safe and still quiet after dark. Usually little to no one there. There aren't any gates and there are residents who live down the dirt road. If you pass the 2 right turns into the park/boat launch area, you will end up at someone's home!! Just an FYI!!***
Beautiful, quiet, maze of boardwalks. Good location to launch a boat or access kayak trails.
Beautiful place to go relax and fish if you like nature.
Love this place as my wife was able to take her wheelchair.
This is one of my favorite places I've ever been to and I love going to it to relax it's beautiful at night and it's beautiful in the morning there is a two-story place that has all kinds of artwork and I love it
Great place to walk and enjoy nature along the creek
Nice place by Chickasaw Creek off of US-43. Saw a lot of families fishing, we were with our dog. Has a marina for boats and kayaks. You can see manatees ( sea cows) just floating along in the water, we even saw dolphins, and a bull shark! Huge fish! We saw a gator sunning himself along the bank along one of the wooden walkways. The pelicans are kind of scary, they have no fear. We had a nice morning out there.
