This 984-acre property includes marshes and streams, flowages and small pothole ponds, and is surrounded by grasslands and upland forests. Four miles of hiking trails gives the bird watcher good access to the property. Ruffed Grouse, Barred Owl, and Pileated Woodpeckers are found in the forested part of the property. Grassland birds including meadowlarks and in the meadows are a variety of sparrows. Eagles and Osprey hunt for fish in the flowages. This is a wonderful, serene stop for a hike or nature watching.
