We hiked sections of the Florida Trail through the Ocala National Forest. Know that you can park for free where a road intersects the trail. It is an easy trail with few tree roots and other obstacles on the trail. We did not need out hiking sticks. It gently rolls in a few sections, so no significant altitude changes. There are many sandy sections. We enjoyed sections going north out out Juniper Springs and south from 314 the most as it was mostly forest with some shade. Hopkins Prairie north of 50 is pretty but sandy and sunny. We went in January, so the temperatures were in the 60s and 70s. No bugs nor mud. Do not attempt to hike here or most places in Florida in the summer other than at dawn or dusk. Here it will be swampy, in the 90s, buggy and too humid.

We had 22 of us for a fun night on the lake for a sunset cruise. Enjoyed ourselves immensely. We saw a gator and a bald eagle and got to see the Christmas lights at the marina from the water. Beautiful evening. I would do it again.

First time camping at Lake Louisa State Park. We had a great site with a beautiful view of Lake Dixie. Came in late Friday night to a gorgeous sunset! Electric and water hook- ups with a dump station close by. Great place to ride bikes, kayak, hike and trail ride. Loved the rolling hills and amazing views-check out Lake Louisa after you pass through the ranger station. Everyone was very accommodating. We couldn’t arrive the day we planned so I notified the ranger station- no problem, our reservation /site was secured for the next day( we had already paid in full). I will definitely be back to camp but also for day trips to hike and bike.

This is Florida's hidden gems. They are natural clear springs. They stay the same water temperature year round around 71 to 72 degrees. They are beautiful state park that charges by the carload. They have changing rooms and bathroom and shower. They have an excellent food stand with hamburgers and hotdogs ect.really great walking park with boardwalks walking all over and also trails. There are picnic area tables and grills bring your own charcoal. It's the only spring with a tube ride (walk up to beginning of spring and float or swim) down to a beautiful clear natural pond.bring your goggles you can see all the fishes swimming around under you.great beach area for your kid's. Great area in general. Come check it out .

We camped here for one night. Our campsite, #7 was beautiful and private. It was right on the lake with a swing, in addition to the fire pit and grill. Restrooms were clean and there was a boardwalk, a fishing dock, trails and playground. Very nice park. (Only 15 campsites so make a reservation).
