This is a gem of the mountain! The McCoy farm is a historic property that was donated to the community by the McCoy family. It has trails and gardens to enjoy. I go walking here with my kids all the time. We love picnicking here as well. It is dog friendly and has a small dog park as well.

You can cool off in the fountains or ride the Carousel. Walk around Frazier Avenue and grab a bit to eat at cashew or some ice cream from clumpies. It’s also a great place to park and walk across the Walnut Street Bridge.
