I go practice fishing whenever I can. Really short distance from just about anywhere in Port Washington. Multiple entrance, and when the river is low, the rocky outlines on the bank can make swimming holes. But do make sure you stick to the trail, for once you stray, you may find yourself on private property. Riddled with deer trails, so make sure you distinguish what is, and isnt a walking trail. Trout is stocked at the mouth annually. Would come again and again, for as long as possible.

Very pretty. Fall colors, stream, waterfalls. Very picturesque.

This place brings me peace. I love visiting in mid to late June for the little meadow of purple flowers near the entrance, tucked back by that little foundation. Wonderful place.

Port’s hidden gem. When not overtaken by fisherman from IL, this is an awesome place to walk. Quick .5-1.5 mile loops.

I love the tranquility of the river and the beautiful wildlife and native flowers. This for me is the best place to relax in Port Washington.

Encountering the Sauk Creek rapids during the Spring thaw is an invigorating experience if youre up for the short hike.#SaukCreekNaturePreserve

Hidden in plain sight, the Sauk Creek Nature Preserve has decent paths, a beautiful creek, and a surprising variety of birds (Blue Herons, Cardinals, Indigo Buntings...).

Love the park. So beautiful with trails to different spots on the river.

I was at my parents house up the road. But sauk creek is awesome

This small beautiful natural area is a favorite place of mine. Tucked in the edge of Port Washington its tiver has a waterfall, a bridge, and trail. Be careful not to step off the trail because theres poison ivy in some areas,

Nice little steam with great spring fishing

Nice quick trails through some woods near the river.

Wonderful experience.

Ive caught alot of different species here and I think its a really beautiful spot being in town yet. I saw alot of different little baby deer fawn getting a drink of water down here too.

1st visit! Very nice!

Although it was cold out today, it was definitely worth getting out there to check it out for the first time today. I imagine its even more beautiful during the warmer weather!

Magical.

Nice!

Such a beautiful, relaxing place. The salmon fishing was a great experience!

An great place to to bring the kids for an afternoon of exploring and learning about Port Washingtons great past. The wildlife is amazing .

Beautiful place to enjoy a walk with the dog or do some fishing

Great start how can we help.

Awesome nature preserve with easy hiking trails and a small waterfall. Makes for great family hikes! Photos by John Suhar.

Pretty neat place for a hike!

Beautiful nature!

Good views.

Great black raspberries! But, yes, a polluted creek indeed and in my opinion only the second best nature area in town overshadowed by the Birchwood Hills and Valley Creek.

Great place to take a walk.

Nice quiet location. Good for taking your dog for a walk.

Its beautiful in the fall especially. Love to include this place on my walks.

I hated it. The dirt wasnt firm enough and the tour guid said heck

Great place for a stroll or fishing when the trout are running.

Lovely and quiet for a winter walk by the creek.

Great spot for salmon fishing

BEAUTIFUL!! Sooo relaxing.

Ok

Nice place to walk your dog.But some people dont pick up there dog poop and that is disgusting!!

Beautiful views!
