Brookside Preserve

Brookside Preserve in Baldwin, NY, spans 22 acres of serene freshwater landscapes, blending woods with water elements. The area boasts a network of trails, some featuring charming boardwalks. Visitors can immerse themselves in a natural haven adorned with red maple, white oak, and cherry trees, accompanied by a variety of bird species like wood thrush and tufted titmouse.

Meandering through the preserve, Milburn Creek offers a picturesque vision of clear waters and a sandy, pebbled bed.
