Scatter Creek Unit, Protected prairie area in Thurston County, Washington, US

Scatter Creek Unit spans 960 acres of prairie wetlands and forests, divided between North and South tracts with separate parking facilities and trail systems.

The land belonged to George and Marita Miller who settled in the 1850s, later becoming Reece Brewer's property until a wildfire destroyed the original structures.

The protected area maintains native prairie grasslands of Washington State, supporting numerous plant and animal species through prescribed burns and habitat management.

Visitors access two separate sections with parking lots and restrooms, following designated trails through prairies while respecting private property boundaries.

The location contains Mima mounds in both North and South sections, featuring rare Puget Sound prairie landscapes with Garry oaks and Oregon ash trees.
