Reviews of Sandhill State Wildlife Area
"Absolutely loved this place. Excellent place to view all sorts of wildlife including ducks, deer, and of course bison! The driving trail was well maintained and had plenty of safe spots to pull off to walk. I definitely would recommend bringing some binoculars, I was lucky enough to see the bison up close but I imagine they roam quite far into the enclosure. The staff was super friendly and the visitor center has wonderful taxidermy and exhibits! Definitely worth the drive to visit!"
"Beautiful, quiet, and peaceful refuge. We were there mid August and were able to see Bison, migrating birds and lots of greenery. I think early Spring or Fall would be great times to visit as well."
"I didn't see any bison on my first time through but I will be back. What a hidden gem so close to home! I hope to do some hiking next time but glad there is the option to drive through and some spots to park and enjoy. I recommend it to anyone local or visiting to check this out!"
"Loved it. Saw grouse, deer, swans, beaver, birds of all kinds and buffalo were close by. A great place to visit. Visiting early morning might even more spectacular. Also it is free, just ask for donations. Horse flies abundant. Bug spray a must and check for ticks when you leave. See this all from your car or you can walk. It is a 14 mile drive on narrow road. Short cut provided too and a few hiking trails. So many different types of land, such as prairies, marsh, pine stands, flowages, oak barrens etc... You register at gate and open it yourself and close it. Same as you exit. Whole 9,100+ acres is fenced with in 9 foot fence to allow for animal studies. Buffalo number about 15-20 and are on 260 acres that is fenced in. Natural flowers, ferns and many types of trees."
