Small lakeside/wetland preserve with boardwalks, marsh edges and mixed hardwoods — excellent for reflective waterscapes, seasonal color (fall foliage, spring green) and waterfowl. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side-light and glassy reflections; spring migration and late summer bring birds and dragonflies. Accessible trails and roadside parking at 499 Echo St; likely no entry fee. Expect mosquitoes in warm months and snowy scenes in winter; bring bug spray and waterproof shoes.
