Colin Phipps purchased nearby additional property which is now included as part of the park.
Tallahassee is charged with preserving and protecting the property as a Lake Jackson watershed as well as providing the opportunity for diverse environmental education and recreation for all ages, consistent with maintaining the resource base.
The park has miles of trails for hiking, bicycling, walking, and horseback riding through old fields, open pine woods, and mixed pine-hardwood forest.
This race course covers beautiful rolling terrain along both single-track and multi-use trails.
The park also host two events of the Gulf Winds Summer Trail Series each year.
