130 acres, Rutland Twp. Barry Co., 5 miles SW. of Hastings. Located in an area of glacial moraines, this sanctuary contains rounded ridges, seasonally flooded ponds, a stream, and lake. Most of it is wooded and contains old-growth beech, oak and tulip trees. Large evergreens provide additional woodland habitat. The sanctuary is botanically quite diverse and includes a number of threatened and endangered plants. A path from the parking lot leads east across the old bridge over Glass Creek. A parking lot on Erway Rd. 0.5 mile south of Hart provides access to the southwest part of the sanctuary. Cerulean Warblers nest here.
