Dayton Wet Prairie, located in Bertrand Township, is 40-acre mosaic of communities with alkaline shrub/herb fen (Lower Great Lake type), wet prairie, and shrub carr. Chikaming Open Lands acwuired Dayton Wet Prairie from The nature Conservancy in 2011. A local dirt road bisects the preserve into north and south sections and the McCoy Creek slowly meanders through it as well. According to an ecological survey of the plants and animals in the wet prairie, there are several threatened and species of special concern including the Eastern Massasauga Rattlesnake, Spotted Turtle, Eastern Box Turtle, White Lady's Slipper, Prairie Indian Plantain, and Edible Valerian. Due to its very delicate nature, this preserve is not open to the public, there is no parking, and there are no trails. Special permission must be obtained before visiting this site.
