Details

Established as a park in 1914 after the property was deeded to the city by the Eppersons, it sat along the main road through town, which at the time was dirt and canopied. There is a bench and picnic bench under the oaks, adjoining a sinkhole that has been fenced in.

There is no parking along US 27, but you can walk over from the adjacent restaurant or park around the corner.
