Small Lake Michigan bluff and dune preserve with tall grasses, prairie wildflowers, migrating songbirds and open water views. Shoot layered dunes and shoreline at golden hour, birdlife in spring/fall, or stark winter textures. Trails and a short boardwalk provide easy access; street parking on Elmwood Ave is limited. No entry fee. Weekday sunrises are calm; plan around wind for shoreline shots.
