Parks & Nature

This place has a mile long boardwalk built over under the woods and over the water. Really cool. Bring a float because you won't have to walk back, just float out on crystal clear water and you'll be right back where you parked your car. Clean restrooms, protected picnic tables and grills. Best of all, it's free.
