Boat storage is available to residents only for an annual fee. The lake is stocked with fish and encircled by walking trails based around a 1.8 mile loop that ventures into the woods that stretch along a large portion of the lake. The park also has a [[disc golf]] course, docks, sand volleyball pit and permanent corn-hole boards (bring your own bean bags).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hudson.oh.us/Facilities/Facility/Details/4|title=Hudson Springs Park|website=Hudson, OH}}</ref> Cascade Park, Barlow Farm Park, and Colony Park are large neighborhood parks used for sports and general family recreation. Other properties, such as Doc's Woods, MacLaren Woods, Trumbull Woods, and Bicentennial Woods, are kept as forested nature preserves. The first Hudson Park, Wildlife Woods, is actually located west of the city in the [[Cuyahoga Valley National Park]].
