Three Creeks Conservation Area reviews
7Beautiful location to visit and enjoy the outdoors. Better grab a map because the trails are essentially unmarked.
Camping was decent, but the ground wasn't very soft. (We camp without air mattresses or cots). Beautiful view. Cleanest port-o-potty I personally have seen in a long time. The turkey creek access was the easiest area to access in my opinion.
New Nature School by Deer Park. And it's free! They'll take schools too. Call Jenna Steik at MDC #815-7900, ext 2886 to setup a tour and see what they have to offer. Our 7 kindergarten classes loved it
One of the best hiking spots around Columbia. Definetely a favorite of mine. Really love all the creeks and occasional bluff. Great diversity of native plants. I think you can camp in some spots/backpack into the park, not entirely sure tho.
Absolutely beautiful but difficult terrain at times so be prepared. Spent 7-8 hours hiking and still a lot we didn’t see. Definitely worth it!
Beautiful quiet place with a nice smell in the air. We haven't seen everything yet, but I plan to go back soon.
Love exploring this area. Cool little spring cave, bluffs, lots of parts to checkout. Look at a map before you go as it can be easy to get lost (opps) when the water is high and you can't walk through the creek beds. There are a couple different trail heads, we entered off South Myers Lane.
