Great place to visit several times throughout the year. This is very peaceful area and would give one an idea of the early settlers being out in the middle on nowhere.

This is a beautiful area to visit. I love to go there at sunset. There is a wonderful tall waterfall there as well. Who would have thought, in Kansas but it is big and lovely. Only thing is, most years it does not run all the time. It is the overflow for the lake so the area needs to have had rain for it to be running. When it does it is beautiful.
