Last verified: July 27, 2026
Small boats only on the in-park ramps — trailered bass rigs should launch at Sneads Park or Howell's.
Gates run 8 a.m.–sunset; no after-hours retrieval.
The park still notes ongoing recovery from Hurricane Michael (2018) on its page.

Site Details
Conditions change rapidly due to water levels, prop wash, and weather. Always visually inspect before backing down.
RampConcrete, 1 lane
Water DepthShallow, sheltered launch best suited to smaller hulls — the park itself says the two in-park ramps fit 'smaller watercraft.'
DockFixed dock
Trailer Parking4 spots · paved
Crowding Four trailer spots and 'Limited parking' per FWC — this is the small-boat, campground-and-cabin launch, not the tournament door.
Plan B — if this lot is full Big rigs: Sneads Park ($2, 2 lanes, 24 hrs) or Howell's Boat Landing (free, floating dock) — both minutes away. Registered campers also have the park's natural-bank canoe launch (campers only).

Ramp Quirks & Etiquette
The Scenic Small-Boat Door
Inside the $3 state park: one lane, fixed dock, four trailer spots, 8-to-sunset gates. Perfect for jon boats, canoes and kayaks working the timbered shoreline; wrong for the 21-foot glitter rocket — the park says so itself and points bigger craft to the county ramps on its boundaries.
Camp on the Lake
This is the Florida side's lakefront campground — cabins and campsites on high bluffs over Seminole, plus a 100-foot fishing pier in the campground and a campers-only canoe launch. The classic play: camp here, fish out of Sneads or Howell's.
