Dead Stream Flooding State Wildlife Management Area, Protected wildlife area in northern Michigan, United States
The Dead Stream Flooding State Wildlife Management Area spans 1,024 acres of wetlands, forests, and grasslands along the Muskegon River in Michigan.
The Reedsburg Dam construction in 1940 created the Dead Stream Flooding reservoir, establishing a 540-acre water system to control flooding from Houghton Lake.
The management area supports conservation education through organized nature walks and wildlife observation programs conducted by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.
Visitors access the area through U.S. Route 127 exit 194 and County Road 300, with two public boat launches available for water activities.
The shallow waters contain numerous submerged obstacles, creating specialized habitats for native species like pumpkinseed, northern pike, and bowfin.
