The Little Cataraqui Creek flows through the area and a reservoir has been built for water control and wildlife management purposes. It boasts an outdoor centre and houses the headquarters of the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority. In the winter the conservation area is popular for ice skating, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and chickadee feeding.

Composed of pond, marsh, field, and forest habitats, a diverse collection of animal and plant species can be found.
