It contains 19 bodies of water covering 275 acres (1.1 km2) and features 15 miles (24 km) of foot trails and three lean-tos.

It is dominated by Blue Ridge, a height of land ranging from 2,700 to 3,497 feet (823 to 1,066 m) in elevation and running in a general east-west direction for a distance of more than six miles.

On the lower north slopes of the ridge there are a number of attractive little trout ponds with foot trails leading to them from Route 28.

Most of the old growth spruce and hemlock suffered heavy damage in the 1950 blow down, which affects the character of the area even to this day.

A portion of the 138-mile (222 km) Northville-Placid Trail runs from the south boundary northward to the vicinity of Stephens Pond and Lake Durant.
