Machimoodus State Park
The 300 acres of Machimoodus State Park, East Haddum, overlook the Salmon River and Salmon River Cove and incorporate uplands, woodlands, meadows, river and cove waterfronts. Three ponds near the park entrance abut fields which are mowed for the benefit of the summer wildflowers. The ponds and meadows make for excellent birding as well as lots of butterflies.
