Our Attractions at Creasey Mahan
Visitor quote, “Every time I visit, it’s nicer than the time before.”
WOODLAND GARDEN
Along Mahan Lane, just past the arbor into the forested trail area, visitors will notice our spectacular garden centerpiece for the area! The Woodland Garden ultimately will encompass a 6-acre area, with room to grow. When completed, this garden will be one of the largest native wildflower and fern gardens in the United States.
TRAILS
With miles of winding trails, there is a walk for everyone! Hike through lush forests, white pine stands, native grass meadows, wetlands, springs, and meandering streams. From quiet forest paths to broad grassy avenues, Creasey Mahan is ideal for local hiking, trail running, and nature exploration.
