Osprey Marsh was donated to Sippican Lands Trust in 2014 by Mary Howland Smoyer in cooperation with her children and her siblings, Edward Howland, George Howland, and Meg Howland.
Features:
Osprey Marsh is a 19.8-acre parcel of protected upland woods, wetlands, and marshland offering spectacular water views of Planting Island Cove. The Osprey Marsh features two trails at the site.

The Osprey Marsh Accessible Boardwalk is an 800-foot accessible wooden boardwalk and stone dust pathway with a prominent viewing platform at the end of the trail.
