Since 1992, four acres of the wetlands have been accessible to the public year-round. A 3,400-foot wooden boardwalk escorts visitors through the abundant wildlife habitats, with signposts of educational information about the plant varieties, which include meadow foxtail and tall fescue.

A cattail marsh forms the center of the wetlands, while the larger wetlands are celebrated for their biodiversity, enriched by the inclusion of endangered plant species. Part of the wetlands came under the management of the Greenbelt Land Trust in 1999 in an effort to protect its biodiversity and hydrology.
