Black Creek Park, Public recreation area in North Chili, New York.
Black Creek Park is a large recreation area in North Chili with trails for walking and horseback riding, along with fields for soccer and baseball. It features two enclosed lodges with kitchen facilities suitable for group gatherings.
The area was developed as a recreation space to serve the community with outdoor activities and nature access. The Chili Historical Society later established its headquarters at the southeastern edge to preserve local history.
The Fairy Trail near Woodside Lodge displays small houses built by community members, which help introduce children to the natural world through creative play. These handmade structures are woven into the visitor experience as people walk the path.
The trails are accessible year-round, though conditions change with the seasons. It is helpful to bring appropriate footwear and weather protection, as exposure varies across open and wooded areas.
Black Creek and Mill Creek wetlands run through the park, creating two different ecosystems side by side. The southern wetland section offers visitors a rare chance to observe water and forest habitats directly adjacent to one another.
