Posted on the sign at the parking lot; "This area closed to all activity other than hunting, fishing and trapping from 8:00PM to 6:00 AM September 1 - May 1 AND 10:00 PM to 6:00 AM May 2 - August 31st."
AKA, no night runs and be mindful of hunters during their season...they have the "right of way" here.

Runner Notes
Be weary of ankle biters noted above.
Description
As of February 2017 ODNR has worked to clear off the dike walls and trail of all shrubs and brush so the roadway is a bit rough. Keep an eye out for muskrat den holes on the trail as well.
More information can be found at the Ohio DNR website.
