While this is such a nice, beautiful place to take a calm and relaxing walk and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature, the lady who works there has a tantrum when you meet up with your mom friends and their kids to take a walk together on a weekday. We were treated with a harsh tone and bad attitude the moment we got there. I do understand that group events can be scheduled on their website, but don’t even think about going here just to meet up and take a walk on the trails unless you want to be hassled by the staff. We were told that even though it is OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, they do not like having groups of people come at the same time because the trails are small, and that kids are loud and this is not a place to be loud. Also, there is no difference between meeting up on a Monday morning, like we did, and meeting up on a Saturday afternoon, but the staff insisted that there’s a huge difference…. Our kids were so quiet and sitting on the benches eating a snack, which we made sure to clean up, and the employee came out to say we were being so loud and screaming which was completely untrue. When asked if anyone has complained about us, she wouldn’t answer and just said she felt like she was “giving us lots of grace in allowing us to be there.” I truly felt like we were being treated this way because we had children with us. If this is supposed to be a place for all to enjoy and learn about nature, it should be more welcoming to people with kids. I would bet that she wouldn’t have said anything if it was just a group of adults meeting for a hike. In fact, our kids made it a point to pick up any trash they found, and helped clean up after someone else left a mess. So, you’re welcome, Edith Moore Sanctuary!! If you are going solo to take a quiet walk, it’s great, but if you plan to meet some friends there, I would say find somewhere else.
