Activities at Lake Bluff Bird Sanctuary

For 2008, while we are reorganizing and restructuring, the M.E. and Gertrude E. Gray House will be open for tours by appointment only; two weeks advance notice is requested. There may be unscheduled spontaneous tours when staff allows. There is a gift shop with clothing, books, etc. in the house. The three self-guided nature trails are open year-round. The trails are not wheelchair accessible. No dogs/pets are allowed on the grounds; no bikes are allowed on the lawn or trails.
