An absolutely beautiful venue! Came into Frederick for a wedding and was so impressed by how beautiful it was here. It’s cozy yet expansive, and the surrounding nature is the perfect backdrop. The majority of the parking is up a rather long staircase with a shorter railing, but that was the only slight negative about our visit and it had a negligible effect on our overall enjoyment. This is a perfect spot for more than just weddings, and I would definitely book an event here if we weren’t from states away. I could have stayed here and relaxed for hours just taking in the scenery. I assume the food we were provided was from in house, and that was also very good! There was an open bar for our event, too, and the drinks were poured very strong - no complaints here!

Very nice little state park! There is an entrance fee of $3 in-state or $6 out-of-state (cash only), but there is quite a lot to see and it’s well maintained. Looks like there is an event building on site, which I assume is available to rent out for a fee. We saw two separate lookout points, the venue, an old wooden see-saw, and a statue with some historical signage. There were some wooded trails we didn’t venture into, but wish we would have had time to stay and enjoy a little bit more!

Very nice trails make it great for a morning walk. Connected to the Foster Park Golf Course, which is perfect for walking through and enjoying the sunrise. A couple of really nice bridges, a playground, and some paths right on the river to enjoy the water. One of my favorite peaceful places to go in FW!
