This 89-acre nature preserve brings together a remarkable range of habitats – rolling uplands, forested wetlands, and a pristine open bog tucked into the northeast corner. The bog is especially rare and ecologically significant, earning a perfect 5 out of 5 Eco Score from Little Traverse Conservancy’s ecology technician Brad Von Blon, reflecting its exceptional quality and minimal disturbance.

Upland areas flow into forested wetlands with white pine, creating a connected, resilient landscape that supports diverse plant and wildlife communities. A leadership gift to protect this land offers a unique opportunity to name the preserve, permanently linking your generosity to the stewardship of an extraordinary natural place and ensuring its protection for generations to come.
