Nestled along the Tomahawk Trail, it's the perfect spot to pause, appreciate art, and enjoy a picnic at one of the several tables available.

Little Blue River was originally given names like "Hay Cabin Creek" by Americans travelling west during the 1800s due to the abundance of reed-grass homes (perhaps indigenous, perhaps created by early foreign travelers) dotting the riverbank.
