I was dismayed to learn that the larger road loop is closed on weekends, because I had been looking at the trails online and the one I was hoping to do was too far to walk. However, there were a lot of others to choose from, and we ended up improvising pretty well. We started by driving out on the shorter loop that was still open. It was prairie on all sides, with a few isolated trees and forest in the distance. We stopped at the first parking area, which was for one of the houses on the property, and the wildflower garden. The garden was beautiful!
