**Facilities & Amenities:** This private facility charges a $5 launch fee, though the fee is waived if you purchase food or drinks at their on-site deli. The property includes covered boat slips, restrooms, and a general store serving sandwiches and cold beverages. The 25-acre riverside park features mature cypress, oak, and magnolia trees with good wildlife viewing opportunities. The facility is pet-friendly (with leash requirements), making it a welcoming spot for paddlers and boaters looking to explore the scenic, flatwater character of this section of the Withlacoochee.
