This was one of the highlights of our trip. Not only was the visitor center wonderful but there are two driving "trails" (one 7 miles, one a bit shorter) that you can use with your car, on bike or on foot. These trails wind their way through the ponds and creeks in the preserve, taking you within a few feet of animals of all types. The trails are open after the visitor center closes and a great time to see wildlife is in the evening, near dusk. We went there daily, sometimes driving, sometimes parking and walking and other times just staying in one place, listening to the calls of loons, trumpeter swans and other birds. We saw beaver and otters as well as many songbirds. Our return plans to visit MI will include Seney in the future.

We stayed at Northland Outfitters in Germfask which was only a few miles from the Refuge. This was great because it was really nice to have a short drive "home" after viewing until dark. We will do this again too. You can camp there (really nice, large campsites, immaculate park-like grounds) or rent one of...

This was a really nice little refuge. There is a visitors center that contained a touch table with various animals for kids(or kids at heart) a few more wildlife setups and a video to watch as well. The trail is about a mile all the way around(more or less) and you will see many things on your way around. We were able to see a few different types of birds, some muskrat, chipmunks and a deer. You can also drive on a path with wheelchair accessible viewing platforms that have free- to-look viewfinders. The refuge is very large itself and very well taken care of. We just stopped over for a quick tour on our way back down South, it's a nice place for a...

The refuge is so scenic and tranquil, there's so much wildlife to see, if you go there early in the morning. They have a bus tour, but we are never on time and always miss it. The staff here are very friendly and answer any questions you have. There is a spotting scope inside the visitor center which points directly towards treetop eagle nest in the refuge, which is really awesome. We always get to see mama eagle with its fledglings every time we visit this refuge. There is no entrance fee, but still they take excellent care of the refuge for all of us to enjoy and see. They have a donation box in there, if you can please donate!

What an absolute hidden gem. If you're even a little bit interested in birdwatching, this must make it onto your U.P. itinerary. I stopped into the temporary visitor center and was greeted by a trio of friendly and very knowledgable gentlemen who gave me the rundown on where to go and what to expect and sent me with a bunch of really nice maps, postcards and a book about the refuge. I hadn't been here in decades and I definitely won't wait so long next time. This is a fantastic place for birding if you are traveling with kids or people with limited mobility.

This place opened my eyes up to the wonderful world that is wildlife refuges! This was the first one I had gone to and it got me addicted!! It was so cool!!! There was so much wildlife to see, beautiful trails to walk, and a beautiful drive through, too! This is a must see for this area! I'm so glad that I had googled this place when I had some free time while staying in Munising, and made my way out to here. It was definitely one of the coolest wildlife refuges I've been to (and since then I've continuously gone to more, but this one is still my favorite).
