"This wildlife refuge is hidden gem out east. Great place to take the kids and enjoy the beautiful views and the wild animals."

"This is saved under one of my favorite escapes from the city. They have beautiful, easy trails that immerse you in nature. They also have animal rescues and rehabilitated animals as well - from owls, to falcons, to eagles, to possums and tortoises! In the visitor’s center, they have reptiles and insects! It’s a great place to clear your mind, do some light aerobic activity, or to educate your young kids. The place is maintained well and is clean. The staff are friendly and engaging. They offer so many free activities and programs. It’s never full any time I’ve gone either so I’m a bit weary to promote it because I want to keep it an IYKYK kind of gem, but a place like this that offers so much beauty and help for free should be shared. Please come and support them!"
"This was a beautiful evening spent at the Quogue Wildlife Refuge. If you've not visited, put it on your list to do so. The hubby found it last week when the news did a story on it. The kids would love all the activities they have to offer as well as walking the trails. Our little one immersed himself with every turn. And the beautiful colored leaves just stopped us in our tracks."
