Placed with permission of Washtenaw Parks and Rec.

Just west of the city of Milan, the Draper-Houston Meadows Preserve protects over one-half mile of Saline River shoreline. At the preserve, you will encounter high-quality floodplain forest habitat with oak, walnut, butternut, and sycamore trees. Of particular interest is a significant stand of pawpaw, a small, understory tree with a banana-like fruit, which is uncommon in Washtenaw County.

In the southern portion of the property, visitors will find a lovely mature woodlot and two creeks meandering through hedgerows on their way to the Saline River. The woods and hedgerows offer an attractive spring wildflower display.

Keep in mind that during the summer months, the vegetation is very high and that bug spray will be a necessity due to the swarms of mosquitos.
