4.5 based on 66 reviews
A number of bird species can be spied among the shale cliffs of the Mill Hollow-Bacon Woods Memorial Park.
Reviewed By Shadows_Bam
We visited both sides of this extensive park. I'm glad we did since there's simmering worth seeing on both sides. The reconstruction of the giant eagle's nest on the Mill Hollow side was amazing and the walking trails were very nice. The shale cliffs in the Bacon side were great! We were able to wade in the Vermillion River and, since the park is dog friendly, so were our dogs. This double park is definitely worth visiting if you're in the area!
