Very nice park. ONLY reason I took a star off is because the trail map is lacking in real information. We parked in the lot and looked at the trail map posted.. one trail is perfect..flat and well maintained it goes around the reservoir.. the other is shown on the map as a red trail with broken lines..it goes around the other side of the reservoir... do not take that trail unless you are a mountain goat or are with someone you want to see break a bone...its not even a trail in places... obviously we picked it and survived but its not an easy hike at all. We went around the reservoir and joined up with the white trail.... that was a stroll in the park.. stay off the broken red line trai unless you are really good on loose rock, leaves and mountain goating.

This is a very nice trail to hike. It loops around the Bradley Hubbard Reservoir and offers great scenic views. The reservoir area is good for pictures on a gorgeous day. The trail is rocky at some spots, so make sure you have proper footwear for safety. The Chauncey's Peak path is no easy climb, but getting to the top is so worth it because of the view and potential images to take when you get to the top. I'd highly recommend for hikers (Chauncey's Peak Trail) and people who want to enjoy a nice day by the reservoir. There is also a big open field in front of the reservoir for people to play, eat, party, etc.

This is an absolutely beautiful place to come to. It has a large loop trail that goes all around the reservoir and when you start walking up you can see a beautiful view from the top of the mountain. I love walking my dog here there is a nice path and you can also bring your bicycle and pets along they will absolutely love it here. I come here at least twice a year just to do the loop and it is beautiful I would definitely recommend checking this place out if nobody has already. There is a lot to see here and the water is beautiful.

I live in Wolcott and I drove over to this side to get some southern food. Then I ended up thinking about going to a park and I found this park, it’s pretty peaceful, everybody’s nice and has manners while passing on the trail and I saw a few animals. I saw turtles, a water snake and I got to see a bass that a man had caught. The trail itself is pretty his distance and there’s a few different routes once you’ve gone further in!! Great place for a picnic

It’s a beautiful park in any season. The water is calm and serene. The pine trees provide scenery and good smell. There’s a short hike to the Chauncey Peak which provides a spectacular view. The trail is well marked. Some parts can be a little bit rough and steep. Need a good pair of hiking shoes. The parking is limited. During weekdays it could become crowded and hard to find a parking spot. Make sure to go three earlier or later to avoid crowds.
