Description

Huston Landing is further proof that small is beautiful. Keep an eye out for horseshoe crabs, eagles, and osprey.

A gift to the DRA in 2006 from Huston Dodge, a local antiquarian, the preserve is named for Mr. Dodge’s mother’s family, who settled in this very spot in 1740, landing just to the south.

Other Information

Trail open to daytime use only. No camping or fires permitted. Dogs must be leashed or under control at all times. Please do not remove any vegetation and please respect area closures during nesting season.
