Great spot to visit for a peaceful walk and family time. There are some many beautiful things for my 3 year old daughter to explore while expelling some energy. We have visited many times in the past (my husband and I held our wedding here) but today we visited the Butterfly House. The volunteers were so patient and knowledgeable. We’re so lucky to have this park in Dayton.

The tall tower never seems to be open. Other than that, it was lovely.

I have always loved this park. We had our wedding photos here back in 2011 and they turned out gorgeous. Today we were able to introduce our little girl to the park as well! There seem to be many new projects in the works. The paver pathway was not only pretty but easy to navigate with a stroller. We are looking forward to many more years of fun here!

I love to go to Cox Arboretum for pictures. Yesterday I went to take pictures of the snow. It's so peaceful to walk through and just sit and enjoy it.

It was very relaxing. The tower and other structures were visibly pleasing as was the landscaping.

Beautiful, serene, well-maintained and easy hiking trails if you don't have a lot of time but still want to be in nature.
