Really nice spot near the center of town. The surrounding area was flooded, but the trails were all elevated so it was possible to have a nice walk without getting wet. There are helpful trail markers at all the inertsections so you don't get lost.

We walk our dog here all the time, we've never had an issue with anyone in the Conservation Area. The walking trail is usually dry even when the water level is high or there's been a lot of rain, and the trails themselves are well groomed. If you are quiet while you walk you might see deer in the distance, there's lots of wildlife in the Conservation Area.
