The Natural Area contains about 50 acres (20 ha) of old-growth forest. Although parts of the area were logged during the first two decades of the 19th century, tree rings of fallen trees have revealed 200-year-old white pines and 400-year-old hemlocks. These trees are also known for their impressive size.^[3]

In addition to its forests, the Natural Area also has a stream with native trout and fine stands of wildflowers. There is a historic residence on the property built in 1841 called the "Little Stone House", though in recent years the structure has fallen into a severe state of disrepair.^[4] The Natural Area has about 2 miles (3.2 km) of hiking trails.^[2]
