About: Privately owned community park on an island in the South Fork of the New River, maintained by the Todd Community Preservation Organization. The island remains closed after hurricane damage; the owner reports a restored parking area for river access.

Access status: Limited access

Hours and access: Island access is closed. The owner’s May 2026 update confirms the regraded and graveled parking lot is open for river access; it does not publish exact parking hours.

Cost: Contact the owner for any reservation or special-use arrangements.

Before you go: Do not enter the closed island or use the damaged footbridge. River access is from the parking area only, subject to posted conditions. For current access questions use the owner’s contact form or [email protected].

Seasonal notes: The owner’s May 2026 update says replacement of the footbridge is being planned. No island reopening date is announced in that update.

Confirm current access and details with the operator before visiting.
