  Cricket Creek is great place for biking, jogging, walking and fishing. Its very peaceful just taking in all the nature. Very clean and truly a hidden gem.

  Two connecting retention ponds with nice winding walking paths. There is road dividing the two sections, where deer commonly cross. I saw deer was almost hit by incoming car. There should be Deer Crossing sign,

  One visit in and I'd say this isn't a bad place to go for a walk. My wife and I saw plenty of native plants growing, such as Blue Lobelia, Yellow Coneflower, and a ton of Common Milkweed, among others. Red-tailed Hawk gave us a good aerial show, which was awesome.
  
  While I prefer more natural pathways to walk/hike, it isn't uncomfortable. I wish the pools of water weren't so murky looking, but I get it. The summer heat helped spawn more algae blooms. Depending where you're at on the trail, the sounds of traffic might be slightly distracting. Especially when you want a quiet and peaceful walk.
  
  Overall, it's not a bad place to walk.

  Cricket Creek is a nice tranquil wooded setting with a couple ponds off of Route 83. So, if you're tired of the daily grind, the hustle and bustle, of work and life. This place is literally a little gem in the thick of urban suburbia. Great fishing, lovely running/bike path, and a pond for model boating. Pretty cool and have been coming here for years! My wife was quite relaxed and enjoyed a quiet rest...
