Stewart/Person Preserve

Moderate Parking available Scenic views

At Kingston's 27-acre Stewart/Person Preserve, a mile of woodland trails circles two former mill ponds. The dam that holds the pond in place is slated for eventual removal after a 14-year planning process, which will meaningfully improve fish passage in the Jones River watershed once the final funding piece is in place -- worth keeping an eye on if you visit regularly.
