Small riverside meadow and mixed-wood forest along Peshtigo Brook offering intimate waterscape scenes, wildflower-filled meadows, migrating and resident birds, and colorful fall foliage. Best at dawn for mist and bird activity, golden hour for warm light on grasses, and spring for blooms. Accessible via Hawthorn Rd with informal parking; trails and short boardwalks are typically easy to navigate. No fees; expect quiet, rustic conditions and seasonal mud—pack waterproof footwear.
