History
Both of these nature preserves were named after the families who once lived near or on the land here. Dawn Hambly sold the original preserve in 2005 at a significant bargain sale, naming the preserve after her grandparents. In 2020, the Paully Preserve was donated by Virginia Bransfield in honor of her father and his family. It provides rare public access to Lake Huron.
