This trailhead sits beside Pickerel Lake, an 80-acre undeveloped lake in Pinckney Recreation Area. The lake is a serene retreat, ringed by unspoiled forest and wetlands, with no buildings or development along its shore. From here, hikers can step directly into wilderness, using the trailhead as both an access point for the Waterloo–Pinckney Trail and a gateway to quiet exploration around Pickerel Lake.
