Mayfield Preserve consists of 21 acres of natural areas of woods with walking trails and plenty of natural habitat areas for wildlife. In Mayfield Park, there is a cottage and 2 acres of colorful gardens and lush green sculpted gardens, palm trees that date back to the 1930's, fish ponds, giant colorful goldfish swimming throughout the lily pond system and peacocks and peahens that are descendants of the original peapocks and peahens which were gifts in 1935.
