Small suburban wetland preserve with boardwalks, marsh channels, grand live oaks and abundant resident and migratory birds — great for intimate landscapes, reflections and wildlife. Best at golden hour and early morning when water is calm and birds are active; winter months boost migratory species. Trails are flat and boardwalks provide accessible vantage points; free parking at the trailhead on Howell Branch Rd. Bring bug spray and a telephoto for skittish birds.
