Small coastal nature preserve on Saginaw Bay offering marshes, shoreline, boardwalks and beach views — great for birding, wetland reflections and wide coastal panoramas. Best at sunrise/sunset for warm side-light and long shadows; spring and fall migration bring variety of birds. Easy roadside parking on Bay‑Arenac Rd and short, flat trails suitable for most gear. No permit typically required; bring insect repellent in summer and dress for wind off the bay.
