Comments: I found the hike on this website and finally found it one day exploring around town. It was a nice, solitary hike during the hot time of day but the shade of the trees really made it pleasant. The deck at the end was very relaxing to sit and listen to the little babbling brook and the crunching of animals hidden amongst the trees. No one else was on the deck (or trail) so I had it all to myself for about 30 minutes of solitude. I could hear youths "wooping" not far away, most likely playing in a pool, and cars passing by but it was still very nice to be surrounded by nature.
