Once you reach the area, you'll see just how beautiful this natural area can be. You can even bring your dog, as long as it's leashed. Watch out for ticks, though.

The 0.3-mile trail won't take long to navigate, so take your time making it out to the pools. It does have an observation tower, though, so you can get up high to spot more wildlife with your binoculars.

Most of the trail is flattened dirt that is a few feet wide, but some areas are a bit more narrow. If you need some extra space to get through trails, this one might not be a good fit.
