History

This unassuming oasis of land is home to some of the oldest growth forests in the Poconos. Pocono Heritage Land Trust and Brodhead Chapter of Trout Unlimited have partnered to improve trout habitat on this section of the Pocono Creek.

This preserve is accessed from a small parking lot located on Old Mill Rd just behind the CVS and Weis plaza in Tannersville. Additional parking is also available at the old NCC parking lot on the other side of the bridge. No hunting, furtaking, or trapping is allowed at this site.

Fishing is allowed, but these are special regulations waters: artificial lure catch and release only. This property is part of a multi-phase project to restore the waters and bring trout back to Pocono Creek.
