No, however, the refuge office has mounted animals, brochures and maps for visitor s use. There are no weekend staff members to meet the public. In general, the refuge is open to visitors during daylight hours, seven days a week.
Brochures are available at all times at two locations.
There are a 7-mile auto route, two viewing towers, and a walking trail. The best time to observe most wildlife is the early morning or late afternoon hours. Some species can be observed during mid-day. We suggest that visitors stop by the office on their visit to inquire about specific interests. Refuge tours are provided for organized scout, school, and church groups or other organizations.
