When I first discovered it I was there all the time which was earlier this year! But I just left & it looks horrible , there is soooo much trash in the little waterfall , it’s so overgrown that you can’t even see your feet while walking through, I usually sit , relax , I walked through & saw the scene & immediately left, whoever owns or cares for this place needs to pay it a visit & clean it up asap!
