This place was amazing! I believe it is considered a wetland... Park!?It is a super nice walk filled with the sound of birds, wrestling winds alongside tall grasses and water.There are signs that have some educational information about the ecosystem of the area, a big metal dome containing lots of facts about the environment, an old-school theater filled with shade for resting, a few small wooden bridges, and some eco chambers.Ducks, turtles, and frogs can be seen resting as well. It is such a relaxing place.So many great spots for amazing photos.A very tranquil place.I think a loop around the park is about a mile or so. The parking is free, by the way.

I had been to another preserve and was pleasantly suprised at how nice this one was. Tons of ducks, lotrs of water some ponds the algae was high, saw a couple turtles. Very nice walk in nature. Got some great pictures of dragonflies. Bring a bottle of water didn't see faucets. There were a couple porta poties with hand wash stations. didn't see water faucets but it was a very pleasant area.

We visited the wetlands because we were curious what it would be like. It was a good thing that I used google maps directions because I would never have figured the entrance into the park was gravel. That said although the parking area was gravel it was well manicured. We got there around 11:00 AM and it was already warm so I felt fortunate I could park under a tree. We were the only car in the parking area.The path’s are gravel as well. There is a aesthetically pleasing covered area that gives historical information regarding water in the area. It was set up so one could take their time reading the displays.Throughout the park there were areas of interest as well as a amphitheater that holds quite a few people. The park is set up so schools can have field trips to the park and learn about the wetlands. The amphitheater obviously is set up for school children to sit and learn.There are a lot of trees and shrubs as well as an area where there are picnic tables. Again perfect for an eating area for the students that are there on a field trip. We saw some ducks in the pond. What was interesting was what appeared to be algae covering the water. The ponds are recycled water. There is no fishing in the ponds.Overall it was a decent visit and worth going there.

Its a beautiful place to meditate and take in the animal sightings in their natural habitat. There is alot informative placards in the surrounding hiking areas. Loved the first time visit would visit again.

...Surreal place, you experience amazing framed views off the pond features, the birds and the plants as you walk along the winding trail, with every turn a pleasant surprise for the senses to experience and enjoy. The wooden bridge, the educational Temple like structure with mammoth tooth icon at it's entrance, the giant rain-funnel tower, the ducks reeds colonies. A spacious picnicking and lecturing area is adjacent to the educational center, a great place to sit and read your favorite novel or just studying for your school exams. There are a lot more beauty for the body and soul to experience at this mystical, full of life place...

Very cool, was here for a school trip recently, amazing scenery and wildlife, I'm glad many people care about Cali's native plants, and educate others on it, its not everyday you realize what belongs in our state and what doesn't(Referring to the Invasive Species that took over majority of Southern Cali)

Excellent park with a variety of loops to take. Educational boards throughout the loops for everyone to learn from. Benches and tables sprinkled here and there. I recommend for families, photographers, and those that like an active lifestyle.

Really beautiful and kept clean. Fun for exploring with kiddos, but put shoes on your pets! There is nothing but gravel on the path. We cut our trip short for that reason. Im sure well be prepared next time.

Such a neat place to visit. It's peaceful and beautiful. Easy to let go of stress. Also seeing all the wildlife that benefits from having this place.

The place smells amazing, different educational points on the walk. So many ducks and nice little sights. There is a lunch area so you can eat there, along with porta potty's and porta sinks for emergencies.

This is a great place to go for a walk in the morning. There are educational signs and plenty of wildlife to see. And it's all free. What's not to like? We plan to bring out-of-town visitors here.

My family and I really enjoy walking around here. We go pretty often, actually. It is a great place to catch a nice quick walk, or you can lag around and hit every pathway and stay for a while. There is always wildlife to be seen. We love bird watching there. My kids really get into trying to identify new birds that we have never seen before. There are also turtles, fish, lizards, etc... Note that the water is NOT for swimming, drinking, or fishing. The ponds are just to look at. But still make for a great walk and bird watching experience.

Beautiful spot! Too bad people can't follow the rules. Putting these guys on blast for their blatant disregard of the rules and lack of care for the sanctuary of these creatures.

A lovely little secret in Chino. All the paths are loose gravel, so make sure you have the right shoes for it.

Nice quiet place to take in the scenery. Shame that some people still feel the need to litter even with the trash bins located throughout the park

Honestly, my go-to spot for a quick nature dose. Pet access, kids can get some energy out, tables and restrooms, it can be a 20 min trip, or an hour trip, I spent a lot of time here just sitting.
