Size: 140 acres

Land Description:

A mix of open fields and wooded ridges. The property includes an old homestead site which is available for student archeological studies.

Trails: A rustic parking area off of a dirt road is located at the trailhead. Trails total more than 1½ miles and are quite hilly. One trail takes you to an overlook platform providing views of the valley beneath. Another trail connects the preserve trails with the Raven Hill Discovery Center which lies adjacent to the preserve.

Directions: From Petoskey, take US-131 south to Boyne Falls. Turn west (right) at the blinker light in Boyne Falls and go .8 miles along M-75. Turn left onto C-48 (Deer Lake Rd.). Follow to stop sign and turn left toward East Jordan (still on C-48). Go 4 miles and turn left on Pearsall Rd. Within 50 feet, turn left on Fuller Rd. Go up the big hill past Raven Hill Discovery Center until you reach a “T.”  Turn left on Rogers Rd. and the parking area is on the right.
