It is a nature lover’s paradise with more than 80 acres of trails, a wildflower meadow, habitat for numerous woodland animals, many species of ferns and massive oak trees. It is located on Harbor Road, off Main Street, across from Stony Brook Grist Mill. It is open to the public year round from dawn to dusk and is free of charge.
