Small prairie and wetland preserve with boardwalks, open prairie, cattail marshes and scattered trees—great for birding, seasonal wildflowers, reflections and minimalist landscape compositions. Visit at golden hour or after rain for saturated colors and mirror reflections. Trails are short and mostly flat; parking available at the trailhead (no gate fee). Weekday mornings and migration seasons (spring/fall) offer best wildlife activity and fewer people.
