Preserve Description
The Maumee River Overlook is a high forested embankment overlooking the Maumee River. A water-powered sawmill was once located nearby on an outcrop of rocks in the river. Lumber from the mill was used in the Wabash & Erie Canal, which ran along the south border of the preserve.
