Open prairie and wetland sanctuary offering wide sky vistas, seasonal wildflower meadows, migrating and breeding songbirds, and intimate marsh reflections. Best in spring–early summer for blooms and birds, and in fall for warm grasses. Visit at golden hour or early morning for soft light and active wildlife. Trails are generally flat; modest parking at the trailhead off S Poplar Ave. No special permits typically required—check local signage for rules.
