Sadye H.: It was okay, the paths are well marked and it is well kept. There are just other places I'd rather hike because of scenery and wetness.
Danielle Kaufman: Beautiful and diverse wildlife and plants. Sort hike with lots to observe. Very well cared for and clear paths. Great place for learning hike and/or field guide hiking.
Mason Darnielle: Such a blissful spot, very lively with such interesting plants & well kept by the trust. Really a lovely place to go.
Jeff and Debbie LaBelle: Preserve consists of half of the trails outside on field land and the other half through the woods. Fieldl and trails have lots of twists and turns and long grasses. Trails were well groomed and flat. Trails through the woods are an easy walk with lots of twists and turns.
K Ashcraft: great place. watch for ticks. either me or my dog always leave with one
Shawnah Verdavoir: Ticks were horrible on 5-1-21.I had never been to this place, or even heard of it. So we decided to go explore it. Parking was a little rough but not terrible (just rutted out areas in the rocks). It starts out as a grassy unpaved trail in a low laying prairie/field . We were there for barely 5 minutes before we decided to turn back because it was Pretty swampy after the rains we had in the past week. When we got back to the car (a total of maybe 8 minutes on the trail) I noticed a bug on me, and I as I flicked it off I realized it was a tick. Every person in my car looked at themselves and found so many ticks. I have never experienced anything like it. We were covered in them, each of us had at least 10 ticks ...probably more. The winds were strong and so many ticks were inside my car (I'm assuming the wind was blowing them from the trees). I don't know if it's always like that... But I doubt I'll ever have the guts to go back.
Kenneth Dunn: Trails tend to be a mid muddy so be prepared
Natalie Bell: Would be great for cross country runs! Not very exciting and all the signage is down
David Redding: Easy hike. Nicely marked trails.But very little parking.
Barb: Such a lovely well kept preserve.
Andy Kreul: Had a nice hike with the dogs here
Johnathon Doe: A great place to getaway from the hustle of life. You truly submerge yourself in nature for a 30 minute walk. I have seen all natural birds of this area there along with the sounds & sights of Pileated Woodpeckers to whitetail deer. Not a very large area but a hellava nice place to get away & decompress with nature. Parking with a large SUV can be tricky if meeting several friends there as it is very hard to back out or around vehicles in the primitive small lot.Fall is a great time to walk there.
Bonny Jacobs: Walked with a friend this morning. This is our first visit and we were delighted with beautiful wildflowers in bloom in the meadow area. The woods are mature with some beautiful old growth trees. Very peaceful, quiet, well groomed trails. I look forward to returning and spending some time bird watching.
Rachel Harmon: Enjoyed this peaceful bit of forest last year. Unfortunately the residents of Whipporwill drive have posted no parking signs in an excessive amount on both sides of the street and in front of the Fogwell forest sign and entrance. It's sad that they're able to stop everyone from enjoying this public preserve.

Rindy Schlatter: We took a walk while the temps were 25-30°F and an inch or so of snow and the paths were still easy to follow. There are walkways on the muddiest portions. It was cool to see the frozen creek. The path ends abruptly after walking alongside a residential neighborhood. You never lose the sound of the roads but we were entirely alone and it was nice for an hour long walk in the woods in the suburbs. I'd go back to check it out in the summer or as a meeting spot for a walk with a friend.Playground: None.Restrooms: None.Picnic area: None.
Peter Churchward: Grew up with this as my backyard in the 70s. Just as beautiful today! So happy to see a reserve, preserved!Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No Price for adult entry Free …More
Gene (Gene): Enjoy going there just to walk in the nature. If you're going to try to bicycle through there you might want to bring a mountain bike or something similar. I tried to go through there then tubed 10 speed one time and it was after some good rain and it was quite difficult. We have spotted deer in other animals in there so it's quite fun to take small children with you just in case you can spot something cool. It's actually a pretty small place with a small sign on the road. But then again it's just suitable for small nature walks.
Brandy Deal: MUDDY!!!!!! Wear your rubber boots!!!!! Small and confusing trails. Parking and entrance are off Stellhorn Rd. between two houses. I passed it the first time. And PLEASE DO NOT LITTER!!! Ever.Visited on Weekend Wait time No wait Reservation recommended No Price for adult entry Free …More

Chad McCall: Nice hidden gem right in the middle of busy northeast side of Fort Wayne. No overwhelming views or challenging trails, but a great place to get in touch with nature especially if you live close to this one. Found several old growth trees in here, gives the feeling of an old forest with new life trying to make its way. Also gives animals a urban sanctuary, nice work Acers Land Trust.
Eric Criswell: Review more reflects maintenance of trails than the beauty of preserve. Trails in most of the preserve are over grown and very muddy. I realize it’s a borderline wetland area, but could really use some TLC. The mature tree area is beautiful with towering oaks and hickory trees.
David Mizzell: Pretty cool , short hike,
Rebecca Snyder: Trail was not well marked and there were many off shoots to the trail. We must have missed .5 miles of it as we only walked .77 miles.
Haemin Ryu: I anticipated a short trail, but it was actually bigger than I thought. It looks like a little cute forest in town at first, even it is more than that. It is more adventitious and adventurous and fun to get lost in the forest. I just stopped by there on the way to go to the post office and spent time for almost an hour.
Anthony Anzini: Great place
Ann Marie Goff: Great little oasis in the city. Nice place to take a walk.
Jeanette Johnson: nice and hidden wouldn't know its there.
Amanda Schwartz: Hidden gem. Be careful of the poison ivy and mosquitoes though. Long sleeves and pants recommended
Scott Eichel: Nice spot to visit
lilyan coates: Its a nice place
Jimmie Kennedy: Great history and beautiful
Ben Stout: Was pretty muddy when I went. But still a good time.
J Heinz: Homeless male sleeping in woodline behind GameStop.
Rod M: A very interesting place.
