Our guests asked for a place to hike and enjoy the birds and wildlife that this area is so famous for, so we purchased an additional 50 acres of unspoiled wilderness for use by our Guests.  The gives us a total of almost 100 acres which includes woodlands, huge oak trees, a seasonal creek, meadows, and hills. This area is loaded with birds, deer, and other wildlife.  We have just finished 1.5 miles of hiking trails, with lots of benches for relaxing and wildlife watching by our guests.  Below are a few photos taken in our Nature Area. This is a great place for bird watching. Please see our birding page
