Due to the state's varying drought conditions, Florida state parks and county officials are working to determine the appropriateness of open campfires and charcoal or propane grills. Please call direct, or select the park homepage, at www.floridastateparks.org, for information on current campfire and open flame policies.

The park gates close at sunset. If you plan to arrive late, please contact the park prior to 5 PM on the day of your arrival.
Boat motors are restricted to 20 horsepower or less.
A Florida freshwater fishing license is required for persons 16 years of age and older.

Pets are allowed in family camping areas overnight. Pets are not permitted in the swimming area. Pets are welcome overnight in all the the camping parks. Pet rules apply.

• Domestic breeds of dogs, except guide or signal dogs or animals trained to assist individuals with a disability, cats, fur-bearing animals, birds and reptiles are not allowed in food-service areas, cabins or cabin areas, primitive campgrounds, beaches where bathing and swimming are permitted, either land and water portions, park buildings, playgrounds, and areas designated by park management. Captive wild species, whether native or non- native, and barnyard animals, except horses, are not allowed.
• Pets must be well behaved at all times and confined in the owner's camping unit during quiet hours. Unconfined pets may not be left unattended for more than 30 minutes and must be on a leash no more than 6 feet long. Please do not tie pets to park vegetation, natural or manmade structures or facilities. Pet owners must pick up after their pets and properly dispose of all droppings in trash receptacles. Pets are required to be vaccinated. Horse owners and users will be asked to show their certificate of a current negative Coggins test for all horses entering the park.
• A pet that is noisy, disturbing, intimidating or dangerous to other people or pets, or which damages park resources, will not be allowed to remain in the park.

No one younger than 18 may camp overnight unless accompanied by a responsible adult, who will remain onsite for the period rented.

Due to county closures, swimming in the lake may be halted for periods of time. If you plan to swim, please call the park before you make a reservation to find out about the current conditions.
