This is one of the few spots where the Norwalk River Watershed extends into the town of Weston. Mayapple Brook starts on the north side of Honey Hill Road in the Honey Hill Nature Preserve, an open area under the protection of the Aspetuck Land Trust.

Downhill and slightly to the south is the Gregg Preserve, at the end of Mayapple Road in Wilton. One of its trails has a "serpentine" path that repeatedly crosses and recrosses Mayapple Brook on a series of small wooden bridges. The brook enters Seeley Pond just beyond the southwest corner of the Gregg Preserve. From there it continues southwest and meets the Norwalk River about half a mile north of Cannondale.
