Small, accessible reserve with wooded trails, a meandering creek, stone bridges and seasonal wetlands—great for intimate nature and waterscape shots. Best at golden hour or after rain when stream flow and reflections pop; spring wildflowers and autumn color are highlights. Parking at Memphis Picnic Area trailhead; no fee. Trails are mostly easy to moderate; expect mosquitos in summer and muddy sections after rain. Weekday mornings are quiet.
