One of our favorite spots out in the woods. This sinkhole/ piece of heaven is one of the locations the Lost River flows above ground. The mood changes drastically based on the recent weather.
- On dry days, a turquoise calm pool lies quietly with a back drop of cliff and cave.
- On rainy days, it becomes a boiling cauldron of muddy water with swirls disappearing straight down as the water drops back under ground.

Fishing, boating , swimming. Rent a pontoon or house boat.
Wonderful paved walk straight into the peaceful woods. One of the best places to view wildflowers in the whole county. The paved road is blocked to traffic so is a great place for kids to bring their bikes. The paved road ends in a paved parking lot that is the entry point for the steeper dirt path that goes up into Pioneer Mothers woods .... which is virgin timber. The path continues on up to a high exit point on South Route 37. That is the pivot point for surveillance of southern Indiana. Round-trip about an hour and 15 minutes
