Overlook Description

The scenery at this overlook is spectacular. The calm pond draws the reflection of the colorful trees. In the early 1900s there was a turbine-type mill in operation. The mill was powered by the steady flow of the Little Glade Creek. This is a wonderful place for a picnic and there is a 0.4-mile loop trail around the pond.
