Use the ramp to load your boat and sail away into the marshy waters of Mad River Creek, where you can hang out all day and fish (be sure to have an updated license) or watch the various birds and species of wildlife that are everywhere you look, no matter what time of year.
When the temps drop and the migration season starts, hawks and eagles and other migratory birds drop in. Wintertime is prime time for waterfowl, so keep your eyes peeled for Brant, Northern Shoveler and green-winged teal. Once spring rolls around, it's time to see Eastern Bluebird, Seaside Sparrow, Black and white Warbler and Orchard Oriole. And Wild Turkey roam around with abandon during the summer.
If you’d rather go by foot or by bike, there are numerous stretches of trails that are especially manageable during the fall months when the mosquitoes, gnats and other insects have taken off. Mountain biking is allowed on existing trails and secondary roads on wildlife management areas from March 1 to April 15 and June 1 to September 15, as well as on Sundays throughout the year. Bikes are permitted on major designated trails year round. Hunting is also permitted, but you will need a license.
