Thirty-two acres of protected forest make up Little Lake Nature Preserve where visitors can access a 1.25-mile trail through the white cedar and hemlock forest where waterfowl, birds, and wildflowers, along with other wildlife are often visible and present. Many bird watchers come to Little Lake to observe the predatory birds that nest in the area such as bald eagles, osprey, and white pelicans. Little Lake Nature Preserve was first a Native American settlement but became the summer home to Thorstein Veblen in the early 1900s. The preserve protects Washington Island’s only inland lake.
