Going past the kayak launch and through the Burning Basin takes you into Marlow Creek. Like Liverpool Cove, this creek has many freshwater marsh plants such as tuckahoe and pickerelweed in the low marsh, and wild rice and cattail further back in the high marsh. In the late summer, you may also see the pink or white blooms of the swamp rose mallow, a marsh plant that may be where Mallows Bay got its name.
