Creekside Reserve — Attraction in Beavercreek

So in order to get to the Creekside trail, the more habitat area of wildlife ( in efforts to hike ) what you have to do is take the trail going towards the right heading towards the U-Haul company. You will take a paved road for a little bit of the way to like .2. 3 miles and then you will see an opening to your right depending on what area you’re coming from and that is how you enter into like the hiking portion of the preserve ..

I had a little bit of trouble finding it but thanks to Gaia I succeeded . That is the only reason why I am given this information and then on top of that my GPS Waze put me in the middle of the road where there was no entrance to the preserve at all.

On the contrary, it was a beautiful smell of honey Huckle the beautiful sound of birds chirping and it seems like it has been maintained pretty well so five out of five recommend to all my hikers in addition to this information.

This is a nice reserve, full of deer and wildlife. The traffic noise can sometimes be noticeable from SR 35, which runs parallel to the reserve.
