Very neat preserve with a rapidly disappearing habitat in North Carolina. As another reviewer notes, it was very over grown when I visited in late-October, but it was mostly due to a hurricane that blew through just a few weeks before we apparently visited. Downed trees and branches strewn about made it sort of fun to go through the trail among the old and beautiful oaks, pine trees, and beautiful palmettos. I would recommend a visit if you’re interested in plants and animals, and if you’re lucky enough, you may even encounter an alligator. Unfortunately, the mosquitoes are absolutely everywhere for most of the year unless it’s too cold, so please be sure to wear insect repellent (the greater the amount of deet, the better). Let’s hope houses cannot encroach on the wilderness preserve any more, so all can enjoy the space for years to come. Cheers.

The trails are so wonderful. A relaxing day in the sun. Take a swim in the ocean and then a walk through primal woods. Great place to vacation.

Really disappointed. Trail was overgrown and looked like it hadn’t been maintained for a long time. We could only do about half the trail do the debris. Hopefully it will be cleared for future hikers.

Perfect respite from sand & ocean

Really cool place to hike around, very secluded. Don't forget your bug spray, though!
