Sterne's Woods & Fen
Wooded preserve with creeks, ponds, rolling trails and fen habitats — ideal for moody forest scenes, reflections, seasonal color and intimate nature details. Best at golden hour or overcast for even light; autumn and winter offer dramatic color and texture. Trails are mostly dirt; parking and modern restrooms at the Hillside Rd lot. No entry fee; expect muddy sections after rain and limited conspicuous landmarks for wide vistas.
