Fox Island is located at Bowman Lake and includes a nature center, gift shop, natural history exhibits, wildlife observation building, and an observatory. The winter has cross-country skiing. The summer has fishing and swimming. In the summer, don't forget to bring mosquito repellant because the forest is full of the little pests. There is lots of parking and lots of excellent wildlife programs for school-age children. The Fort Wayne Astronomical Society sponsors the observatory.
