Notes about physical inclusion

Any additional information about physical accessibility you feel would be helpful to people with disabilities and their families
Park is very large and spread out. There are benches, trashcans, recyclable bins, and doggie bag dispensers in convenient places, but none obstruct any pathways. The office is easy to access, as are the bathrooms and picnic shelters. There is short set of stairs (8) with rails as well as an accessible concrete path leading to those areas. All corners and turns are at least 60 inches. Call the park prior to your arrival for updates that may impact your visit. The fishing piers and gangways are wooden, and are prone to flooding after heavy rains. Once the water recedes, the wood may still be wet and slippery for a few days.
