A *real* surprise, maybe 30 miles NW of Fort Wayne. This place is a real gem. It's certainly one of the most beautiful spots in northern Indiana.
Immaculately kept grounds, which allow the hiker to see what northern Indiana looked like 200 years ago.
A wonderful place to bring a picnic lunch (be sure to pick up after yourself!) and spend an afternoon hiking.
Absolutely amazing place with a very knowledgeable and kind staff. I went on a field trip with my kiddo, but I cannot wait to go back and explore again with the whole family.
1200 acres of well maintained and well marked trails, encompassing 3 lakes.
My wife and I have just arrived in the area to work at Merry Lea Jan 2017. We have loved all of the wonderfully kept-up trails and that this is open to the community...no entrance fee! We love to park at either of the two maintained trailheads and stroll along the forests, meadows, and lakes. We regularly see hawks, turkeys, and deer...we can't wait to see this place in the summer! And there is a farm!
