I'm a sucker for an excellent Metro Park and that's why I'm so darn lucky to live in Columbus. We've got an amazing metro parks system and although there area  few parks that we mention a lot here on Columbus Navigator, there are so many more hidden gems. We've barely scratched the surface, so enjoy this deep dive into one of my favorite little "secret" parks.
