  It was a beautiful day to walk the trails here. It's an easy to walk loop. Lots of good bird watching to be seen. Many children and dogs do don't expect to have total peace and quiet. On Sunday mornings the Jehovah's witnesses set up to talk religion. So ... FYI. They weren't aggressive. Try the path early morning or before sunset.

  My family and I loved our visit today same as always. The trail starts out paved, changes to a wood deck walkway, they to a rugged mulch path around the outer rim of the island. It also has lots of smaller paths off the main main ones that keep us coming back for more. Next time I'll remember to take a couple pictures of the wood walkway.

  Government island is a beautiful, clean, peaceful nature walk for all ages. Wife and I visit here at least weekly. Watch out for snakes on the trail in summer! This is a great walk in all four seasons, and the history behind the stone quarries and the Capitol is pretty interesting! Lots of wildlife and a great couple lookout points over the wetlands.

  While not exactly a "park", the trail is still really nice, with a few different kinds of environments to walk through. The history of the place is an added bonus. Just needs a playground for today with young kids. A proper bathroom would also be nice.
