The campground at North Woods has both 20 and 30 amp
electrical outlets. The park has a well for drinking
water, two shelters, pit toilets, and recycling bins.
The park has a picnic area with playground equipment,
sand volleyball court, horseshoe pits and over one mile
of trails that wind through forests and fields adjacent
to the Wilson Grove Wildlife Area. The park is open for
hunting November 1 - January 10.
Nestled within North Woods Park is the A. F. Miller
Preserve. This unique natural area was designated a
state preserve in 1985. Various Orchids, Cotton Grass,
Bog Birch, White Turtlehead, and several species of
Gentian all find refuge within the preserve.
History: The majority of the 82 acre park was
purchased in 1961 from Gillet, et al. An additional
tract
(5 acres) was purchased from Ernest and Rena
Miller later that year. The park was completed in 1986
when the conservation board purchased a small parcel of
land (0.86 acres) from Fayette County.
