Beautiful views. Will definitely come back during business hours to see more
I came here and its a really cool place calm and peaceful
I really like coming to the Audubon Coastal Center. Theres a great chance of seeing cool birds and you can usually get the beach to yourself. Be prepared to bundle up as it can be windy even on a sunny day.
Plan to see the sunset here. Very pretty!
Beautiful place to walk and bring the kids.
A totally beautiful place to go and walk around and see nature but if you have a child who wants to volunteer for a church program, no one is ever there. Thats my only disappointment. Beyond that, I do highly recommend visiting as it is very, very beautiful.
I was traveling for work and had an afternoon free. I like to adventure around and stumbled on this great little place. There is a little trail you can walk. They have an awesome center you can visit and see some fun wildlife and a tall viewing platform. It is easy to get to (fun little drive) and has an easy parking lot. Highly recommend a stop if you have extra time to visit this great place!
Great to take a walk with kids on the beach or in a small park next to it. They also have an indoor area with rescued wildlife. Staff is available to help you around. Its free, but they have a donation box.
Lovely place to visitWe got to observe osprey via nest cam. The beach is Rocky but you can access the beach in front of the homes next to the society and thats less Rocky. There were quite a few horse shoe crabs on the beach
Nice quite place to observe nature, go to the beach, reflect by the new man-made pond. They have programs for children and adults. See osprey, in season Purple Martins, learn about native plants and animals. Be advised no dogs allowed
Great place for a walk on the beach. Bring your camera, but not your dog.
Great place to visit and see plenty of avian wildlife. The place has plenty to see and the staff is amazing friendly.Highly recommended.
This is a great spot for grownups and children alike. I have visited alone and also with a school group and also for a birthday party. The Long Island Sound ecosystem is such a big part of New York and Connecticut ... this place does a great job of educating the visitors about all of the aquatic life and birds that call this area home.
Very pleasant. Many different kinds of birds. Easy to photograph
Great place to bird. Great wild beach.
Peaceful, clean, abundance of nature and wildlife
This is a truly beautiful place. A slice of paradise in Milford with a great variety of shorebirds.
New England protected treasures the salty marshes. Connected by walking paths along the ocean land mass. A special place given to mankind naturally. Appreciation and gratitude abound especially amidst the sprawling city congestion. A relaxing getaway! Do not miss out.
Coastal Center with interactive displays and interpretive exhibits. Small nature store and great views of the salt marsh with elevated viewing tower and spotting scopes. An active osprey nest with internet accessible camera is a great feature.
Wonderful nature center on a huge tidal marsh, great spot for birding.
Very windy today but beautiful
I fish the channels and bays in the salt marsh for stripers and blues. Quiet and productive.
This is awesome place to view wildlife and inside the building are plenty of activities for kids!
Educational and interesting for young and old alike. Walk different paths, one to learn about plants that attract butterflies, see different style feeder attracting birds and walk alongside the marshland area.... support and save wildlife and the environment for all to enjoy now and for the future....do your part
Calm wonderful place to observe birds it sits right where the LI Sound hits the Housatonic River
Beautiful great what they are doing. Glad I found Will definitely go back
Great facility. Actually closed on Monday but was open for a school group today and they let me in to warm up. I saw a beautiful snowy owl on the jetty. I come here often. Its a great birding site year round.
This place is very nostalgic for me as it was a popular family day trip. It offers simple trail walks through a variety of ecosystems and is a great place for nature lovers of all ages. Great birding, tracking, deer sighting, otter spotting, turtles abound, etc. Not dog friendly fir the sake of the natural inhabitants so plan accordingly if you want to walk with a four legged friend.
Audubon run preserve and wildlife refuge on the Long Island Sound. Salt Marsh and Wildlife Management Area at the mouth of the Housatonic River. Great place to view shore birds, migrating birds, song birds, raptors - all types of birds. I went on a free Audubon tour and viewed hundreds of birds and butterflies. Some areas were protected for breeding colonies. The staff were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. There is a small nature center, restrooms and ample parking.
Great place for learning about wild life.
Great views of the marsh and its wildlife
Amazing scenery. Great for a peaceful walk or a bird watching excursion.
Very educational and entertaining. My first time chaperoning a field trip
Beautiful area, excellent walk, interesting educational info... thanks!
A must visit location
Our guide Carol was fantastic. Wish we couldve stayed longer.
Even though we visited in the winter, the museum was very informative and the view of the sanctuary was amazing. The staff were extremely friendly and presented well.
Great place to do some birding.
Beautiful, serene
Loved the spiral stair case viewing point.
Beautiful birding spot on Long Island Sound. Expansive views of the marsh and a stretch of beach. A great conservation effort on the part of the Audubon Society.
Its very small, but beautiful.
The location is beautiful and quiet, a great place for a walk. The nature center is small but interesting. I would rate it 5 stars, however while there my wife and I joined the Audubon Society, and signed up to be on the volunteer list. We have not heard from them since, but they did not hesitate to cash our check. We were hoping to receive at least information about upcoming events or volunteer opportunities. I guess at least I donated to a good cause..? Check it out, but think twice before joining.
Wonderful place to take the grandchildren for a nature walk, excellent presentations done regularly and some of the best conservationists /environmental advocates at the front desk! Must visit the coastal center regularly!
Hidden and quiet place.. Very good if want to enjoy silence and nature
Excellent facility. Awesome staff. Ill be back.
Educational. Great place to take kids.
I feel like this is Milfords hidden gem. Amazing bird watching porch, walk through, and view of the water! Overall, it is a very tranquil location
Beautiful!
Beautiful grpunds... awesome summer camp for kids... great place.
Thank you for A great show for the birds on Veterans Day
Great location and learning center is educational.
Beautiful
Neat little place to go check out. Great location.
A wonderful educational center!
Nice place but very basic. Not impressed. Alabama has better views of the water. At a wedding a local couple walked infront of the couples family picture. Terrible etiquette.
Very peaceful spot with great views of Long Island Sound. If you want to get some great photos of birds this is the place to do it.
Great place to go not far from the Bridgeport ferry.
Wonderful place to watch birds and explore the natural world. Seashore, salt marsh and open and small wooded areas
Beautiful, quiet setting along the sound and Housatonic River
Scenery is really nice, great chance for kids to learn about reptiles and birds. Friendly staff
Beautiful beach and salt marsh at the mouth of the Housatonic River! Great for a pleasant walk and bird-watching!
Great place to learn and view the local environment
Fun place to go to. Great fews and a great place for bird watching.
Very nice place to learn. Things to see. Just sit there and watch the birds.
A tower at the end of the building shows a nice view of Stratford and the marsh as well as Roof Access! You arent allowed on the roof. My friend pooped on that roof. It was never cleaned up. It is now part of history from 2011. xD
Good view of the marshland but not as good as my grandparents house as a kid.
Beautiful area to take a walk and see wildlife.
Great for birding, but extremely unfriendly staff.
Always fun
Beautiful scenery. Lots of birds. Friendly staff.
Beautiful preserve! Helpful, courteous staff!
