Visit Us

Other than during hunting seasons, Cold Springs NWR is all about peace and quiet. It's a great place to have a quiet picnic, walk the access roads (and forthcoming trails) with binoculars in search of birds, or just sit in the shade and wait for wildlife to come to you. Even the fishing is quiet—we only allow electric boat motors.
