Known for its quiet serenity, scenic lake, 5-mile walking trail, bird-watching opportunities and many other draws, Watkins Lake State Park and County Preserve in Brooklyn, Michigan, now also will be recognized for its connection to the Underground Railroad. A chain of beautiful small lakes, marshes, oak-hickory forests and rolling meadows make up this well- named preserve owned by ACRES Land Trust. Sandhill Crane, Marsh Wren, Red-tailed Hawk, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, Wood Thrush, and Blue-winged Warbler are some of the many birds. The Cliffs preserve, named for its prominent Rove Slate formation perched over South Fowl Lake where it empties into the Pigeon River, includes 100 acres and a mile of frontage on both the river and the lake. The preserve joins the border with Ontario across from one of the famed Voyageur portage trails.
