Gorgeous state park filled with many mature maple trees with rolling hills to hike. The spring flowers at Nerstrand can't be missed but observing the changing seasons at the park is fun any time of the year. Staff at the park have always been friendly and helpful.

Very nice place with hidden falls. Love the nature though it was winter and most trails were closed.

I live very close to this state park, and it is always a pleasure to visit. The trails are very well maintained, easy to follow, and have a range of difficulties. If you're looking for a nice outing with plenty to explore, this state park is perfect for you. I have visited in all seasons and it's just as beautiful. There are plenty of animals as well, as I have seen many birds, deer, squirrels, and chipmunks. If you want to see the falls in all its glory, go during waterfall season (Spring), otherwise it's slightly underwhelming in my opinion.

Oh, my heart. The waterfall here is just the best. And I love the community feeling— Many people can gather here and it doesn’t feel crowded, just very sweet Lots of beautiful trails, and I love meandering down the creek but for me, it all comes back to the waterfall. Have yet to go camping, but we would like to at some point, because from the looks of it, there are a lot of good campsite choices.

Enjoyed a few hours of hiking on a Saturday. Plenty of parking with 2 areas both right next to the trails. The hike to the falls is not far and well worth it. Trails are well maintained but watch out for the roots. Plenty of hills for the exercise but not bad for the average hiker. Some may want to take a break but trails are wide enough that you can stop and not block others. Signs at all the trail intersections so finding your way around is simple enough. Camping area looked well maintained and is in walking distance to Ranger Station for firewood. We stayed on the Northern side trails but would definitely return to try the trails on the southern side.
