Michaels Inc. “That area was developed later than the inner city and it’s more like a suburb. It has stable neighborhoods that are very much family [oriented] without the noise or truck traffic.”

As a result, more people are visiting the creek for recreational activities such as kayaking and fishing.Just 5 miles away, Collett Park offers a variety of amenities, including a playground, tennis courts, and open fields perfect for soccer and football.
