Featuring over 1200 acres of thickly wooded forests, many visitors arrive here to view the autumnal fireworks. The rich colors of evergreen pines and backdrop of vivid red cranberry bogs provide an uncommon contrast to the annual changing of the leaves. The primary activities here are hiking, mountain biking, and camping. Many other amenities abound; however, such as: canoeing, fishing, restricted hunting, picnicking, swimming, and cross-country skiing.
