This Park is a lovely gem. The park features historic buildings, boardwalks, overlooks, and groomed trails for hikers and cyclists. The trails take the wanderer along the creek and to a scenic view of a bend in the Huron River. There is an underpass of a rail line for the train lover. Signage is scattered about offering explanations as to the history and science of the area. There are gloriously huge oak trees, babbling waters, and sweet scents to appreciate on your way along the paths. I plan to visit often to appreciate the seasons and respite of this little jewel. If I were a teacher, I would plan a field trip and take advantage of the pavilion for the class to have a memorable learning opportunity.

I visited Parker Mill County Park and found it to be a really lovely and well-maintained place. Unfortunately, I couldn't tour the inside, and I'm not sure if that's even an option. However, I would love to come back for a tour if possible. They had a lot of historical markers that described the mill, which was interesting. There was also another old building on site and some nice hiking trails. I did notice a restroom as well. It's a beautiful area and a peaceful spot to enjoy your day or take a little day trip to Michigan to experience some of the state's history.

Peaceful scenic winter walk. Loved the beautiful creek flowing in contrast to the snow. I was able to hike comfortably in snow..except a few places where it was slippery. If you go early morning, you can find a deer, birds and other wildlife! It was quite fun to guess animals from their footprints in snow! The walk only trail is boarded so quite easy to walk in snow.

This is basically across the street from me and it’s such a wonderful park! Lots of wildlife and fun trails, not to mention the river is beautiful and tranquil. Hidden gem for sure!
