Kinderhook Creek Preserve Parking Updates
In early May 2020 Kinderhook Creek Preserve's parking lot was expanded to accomodate the needs of our community. With the new expanded parking lot we can accomodate approx 15 parking spaces. We remind you that parking along Martha Hicks Road is prohibited. We need to leave adequate room for emergency vehicles to pass by. If you cannot find a parking space, please come back another time – or visit another nature preserve nearby. Our Robert Ingalls Preserve is just 3 1/2 miles away on Garfield Nassau Road. See link below for more information.
Please adhering to the following guidelines while visiting our nature preserves:
- Maintain a safe social distance during the pandemic.
- Park only in the designated parking lot.
- Observe all no parking signs.
- When the the parking lot is full, please do not park along the road.
- If you cannot find a parking space, please come back another time – or visit another nature preserve nearby.
