JOHNSON HILLS PARK OPENED TO PUBLIC IN SEPTEMBER, 2007  

This 136 acre park was acquired in partnership with the Hamilton County Park District in 2000 with the primary goal to preserve this gem until development funds could be secured.  Now that the re-development of Beech Acres Park is complete, the ATPD is directing our energy to the planning of Johnson Hills Park. Currently, Johnson Hills Park is open to the public on an “as-is” basis, with limited parking and access to walking trails.

Acquisition

William McNeilan Johnson Hills Park ( Johnson Park) became part of the Anderson Township Park District in June of 2000.  The acquisition of this property was made possible by a variety of means: a generous donation from Marian Johnson (the previous owner of the property), a partnership with the Hamilton County Park District, and the sale of bonds by the ATPD to secure the remaining funding.  

Description

This 136 acres currently consists of rolling hills & wooded terrain. The community is fortunate to have this land secured as a park for future generations! One unique aspect of Johnson Park is the past residence of William McNeilan Johnson and his wife Marian B. Johnson.  This beautiful historic home has a myriad of possible uses. 

The land also features stables that are being leased to a private contractor, Bridle Run Stables. Bridle Run Stables currently offers riding lessons, boarding opportunities and provides horse-training services at this location. Contact Trish Sanders at 513.474.6406 or 528-1838 for more information. This lease continues on a short-term basis until the district determines its future direction for the equestrian setting. The park’s development will emphasize its current natural state so as to round out the ATPD’s recreational offerings.
