Lots of ground water here in the form of Osprey Lake as well as multiple little channels so that of course means there are alligators in the area, as well as TONS of mosquitoes.ġ3. Also, while there is water available, it's around 3 or so miles between parks where drinking fountains might be, so it would be wise to bring your own hydration.ġ2. I did get on to the Legacy Trail for a couple of miles, which can be very brutally hot after mid morning most all year round. There are a ton of trails as well as the ability to access the Legacy Trail which is well known as a paved multi-use trail in this area. But again you will have no inkling that you are in the middle of civilization once settled in at your site.ġ1. There is a Publix less than two miles away and a Walmart less than three miles away. But if you are someone who uses the bath house they're not overly close unless you arranged to have a lot in the proximity of one.ġ0. Which is kind of nice because then you don't have people walking past your site to get to them. Bath houses are in the middle of the overall big long (basically rectangular) loop. I plan to investigate those drive-in lots to see why they are designated as that.ĩ. They have a mix of back- in, pull through, and even Drive-In sites.
Primarily the asphalt on part of the loop, as well as over grown greenery.Ĩ. It is not a manicured area but rather a little rough and tumble. Because it is a state park there are lots of rules and regulations regarding the foliage as well as the animals that inhabit the area, all of which make common sense.ħ. On the other side of the Campground you can hear traffic on the 681.just a quiet hum though.Ħ. We were in site 65 which is very close to Highway 41, and I never heard a single vehicle. A DISADVANTAGE to this can be a claustrophobic type feeling and you tend to lose the breeze.ĥ. Also you're guaranteed shade least part of the day.
The bonus to this is you don't really know, see or hear your neighbor even if the sites are relatively close together. That means there are bushes and trees and vines that will grow and take over your awning in less than a day almost it seems like. The barbecue type grill is in a fire ring on the ground with the adjustable grate, so nothing at waist height unless you bring your own.Ĥ. At this particular park you have to share water spigots, so make sure you have adequate length of drinking water hose.ģ. 4 nights with water and power hookups for less than $100 total (dump station available).Ģ. Very reasonable especially if you are a Florida resident 65 or older. If you know anything about Florida state parks this one is a poster child for them.ġ.
