State parks are becoming our favorite places to camp. We have a waterfront pull thru spot and have been watching for alligators from our window. Haven’t seen one yet, but they live here among the Cyprus trees!

This was a beautiful campsite one of our favorites so far. Partly because there was so few people, it was quiet and we got a space that had a beautiful view of the lake. We are in a class c and didn’t need to use other facilities. The alligator advice on the site map was a bit unsettling but we were only there for one night. Nice sites and road seemed like had just been replaced so easy to drive in and out.

What a treasure. This park is beautiful. Camped in site 102, along the lake. Clean, nice people, not crowded. Wish I could stay longer.

The tall pines are beautiful in this park!!! The only draw back to that is it blocks the view of the gorgeous stars and milk way at night. 😊. There was a fishing pier we fished off of that was nice and they have a nice swim area for the family with a few showers to rinse off the lake water. That helps while camping!! There was canoeing offered through a river that was beautiful and filled with all sorts of water lillies, cats tails and grasses sounding the canoeing trails. It was pretty. Bathrooms were nice. The park had some nice hiking trails. We enjoyed our camping trip here.
