Lakeville Swamp, Nature sanctuary in Oakland County, Michigan, US.
The Lakeville Swamp spans 76 acres of wetland complex, containing dense white cedar swamps, prairie fens, southern wet meadows, and oak barrens.
The Michigan Nature Association established this protected area in 1961 as their fifth conservation project, marking an early effort in state wildlife preservation.
The sanctuary serves as an educational site where visitors can observe over 400 species of native plants, including marsh marigolds, Twinflower, and Clintonia.
Visitors can access the trail from Rochester Road, but should bring a compass and exercise caution due to unstable terrain and the presence of rattlesnakes.
The wetland contains several branches of Stony Creek that extend through the valley for over three miles from east to west.
