About this rest area

Stotts Island Nature Reserve Bruce Chick Park is a day-use site known for its rich flora and fauna, including peacocks and a group of feral chickens. This spot is ideal for those who appreciate wildlife and love the outdoors. It's perfect for picnics and bird-watching, but visitors should be prepared for mosquitoes and sand flies, especially at dusk. Access for Big Rigs requires careful navigation due to low trees and tight turns. Additionally, caution is advised when leaving the park due to a potentially obscured view of oncoming traffic.

Stotts Island Nature Reserve Bruce Chick Park is a beautiful day-use location. While it no longer offers overnight camping, it provides a unique experience with its fascinating wildlife. Notably, you can spot colorful peacocks and a myriad of feral chickens that frequently roam the area. The park can get quite muddy after the rain, adding to its verdant charm. It's a nature-lover's paradise almost any time of the year. However, remember to protect yourself from the eager mosquitoes and sand flies that appear at dusk. The park is also accessible for Big Rigs, but be prepared for low trees and a 3-point turn maneuver. Its ample shade makes it an ideal spot for a relaxing day out. Upon departure, caution is advised at the right turn due to a sign that may obscure oncoming traffic. Experience this lush natural oasis and immerse yourself in its unusual wildlife inhabitants.
