Collier Nature Preserve Parking Area provides access to a scenic state nature preserve located on the Sandusky River with a trail system that descends from the ridgetop to the floodplain, offering excellent spring wildflower viewing and river access.

The preserve features a large wooded riverine corridor with diverse habitat and is particularly notable for its spectacular displays of marsh marigolds and skunk cabbage in early May.

This parking area serves as the primary access point for paddlers and hikers exploring this scenic river corridor.
