The Preserve consists of nine land units and six water corridors encompassing more than 97,000 acres.

It protects an area of rich biological diversity. A convergence of ecosystems occurred here during the last Ice Age. It brought together, in one geographical location, the eastern hardwood forests, the Gulf coastal plains, and the midwest prairies.
