Pointe Mouillee State Game Area, Protected wetland area at Lake Erie, Michigan, United States.
The Pointe Mouillee State Game Area encompasses 7,483 acres of wetlands, marshlands, and uplands at the intersection of the Huron River and Lake Erie.
French fur traders first explored the region in the 17th century, with the name Pointe Mouillee, meaning wet point, appearing in records from 1749.
The annual Waterfowl Festival, established in 1947, brings together thousands of visitors for duck hunting competitions and environmental education activities each September.
Three boat launches maintained by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources provide access to Lake Erie and the surrounding marshlands for fishing and wildlife observation.
The area represents North America's largest freshwater marsh restoration project, constructed using 18 million cubic yards of material from Detroit River dredging operations.
