You can acccess trail straight from our listing, from the paved trail on Clarkston Rd. There is parking, picnic area and a porta potty. It is pretty straight and gravel- my favorite spot used to be the paved mile north of Drahner Rd in Oxford with Ice cream at the end and the libary in the middle if you have little ones
