From Hwy 99 in Merced take the Martin Luther King/ Hwy 59 south exit and go south 7.4 miles to Sandy Mush Rd. and turn right (west). Continue on Sandy Mush Rd. 7.0 miles to the entrance on the left.

From I5 at Santa Nella take Henry Miller Rd (next to the McDonald's) east through the little hamlet of Volta and across Hwy 165 all the way to Turner Island Rd. and turn left. This road will make 3 sets of right and left turns and will change names, but stay on it. You will eventually end up on Sandy Mush Rd. Continue on Sandy Mush Rd. to the entrance on the right.

Mostly wetlands (both seasonal and permanent) and some riparian around the Meadowlark Trail at the SE corner.
