What Guests Are Saying
The Pleasant Grove Recreation Area is enjoyable, but there is a need for clearer reservation signage. This would help prevent others from using reserved shelters without permission. Overall, the experience is positive but could benefit from improved communication regarding reservations.

It’s great just wished they would of posted reserved so people would stop trying to use my shelter without asking

{"text"=>"This is the best walking trail, adventure we’ve taken since we moved up here. It is absolutely gorgeous. I feel really bad because it seems the park and facilities have fallen into disrepair. Someone needs to find a revamp of those place ASAP! The trails are overgrown, bathrooms were locked but you could tell they’d be nasty. There were a few abandoned buildings along the trail, and the suspension bridge needs some attention for sure. But, these things aside we absolutely loved it. Maybe some guard rails for the edge of the trails(some are a steep drop) and there’s some wash out of trails. The views are amazing, the air is fresh, the drive there is awesome. Definitely come check this out. And if you’re there, be sure to pick up some trash if you see it.", "languageCode"=>"en"}
