Love taking my son here! They have done some serious updates since I was a kid. Awesome little gem that is super close to home.

A fine animal shelter, rehabiltation park and zoo. Their work with raptors is remarkable and supported by large industry. The landscaping is enjoyable and meanders between the whimsical to formal and back again. Picnic facilities are available all around. Enjoy the native frogs in the warmer months!

We absolutely loved visiting the Howell nature center. My son has had hours of fun at the play scape and in the treehouse and he always loves to see the animals there. The staff is very helpful and friendly and although they do not require an entry fee I am very very happy to donate to them every time we go to support the work that they do.

Update your website! Arranged to have my elder parents 81 & 82 meet their great grandchildren for a picnic here. It would be equal distance for everyone. Horrible experience. We could not push wheel chairs or strollers through rocks, hills, grass. They have handicap parking & bathrooms but WHY? You can't get to them. HORRIBLE experience for my parents. We almost needed someone to bring them back from the trail but there wasn't anyone around to help. Won't go back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I recently hosted my bridal shower in Knoll Lodge at Howell Nature Center and was very impressed with the day as well as all the communication/set-up beforehand! When searching for a venue, I wanted something where the deposit/rental cost would benefit a good cause as well as something unique and affordable. After searching various venues around Lansing that were asking upwards of $500+, I was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon HNC and all their lodge rentals. It's probably assumed that they host a number of nature retreats and kids' camps, but I'd highly recommend them for smaller events such as showers, birthday parties, reunions, etc. We were in the newest lodge, Knoll, and it was beautiful! There was a fully equipped kitchen, large living room space where we set-up 4 round tables and one long table for food (about 30 ladies attended), a fireplace, large outdoor deck overlooking the lake with grill (if you wanted to BBQ, wish we would have known this!), and various sleeping rooms/restrooms that we didn't use but came in handy for storage. Plus, all the guests were able to enjoy the trails around the property beforehand/afterwards. I can't recommend this enough, thank you Howell Nature Center and Sally for all your help!

Our family loves the Howell Nature Center. The kids (4, 2, and 1) really love the animals. The trails are nice, though not paved. They are donation based, so it is an affordable way to spend a few hours reconnecting with Nature. Highly recommended.
