Overview

In the stillness of the morning fog, a red-shouldered hawk calls out with an echo across Fore Lake. Bounded by marshes, this lake in a scrub ecosystem is an excellent spot for birding from the shores of Fore Lake Recreation Area, where visitors can picnic and swim, or make a night of it in one of the 31 campsites tucked away between the saw palmetto and oak trees. Bring your fishing gear to make full use of the pier and canoe launch area.__ 14 day stay limit in a 30 day period in ALL Ocala National Forest Campgrounds For reservations or refund request please call (877) 444-6777

Great spot with friendly hosts

Great spot with friendly hosts. Big potholes in the road and some low hanging branches however it's very quiet and the spots are clean and spread out.

⚠️Warning ⚠️ Google maps and waze will try and take you down a sand road with very low hanging branches, THIS IS NOT THE ENTRANCE YOU WILL GET STUCK AND HAVE TO BACK OUT.

Go about a mile down the road to the spot where the national park campground sign is. You will see a loop on the Google maps overhead view. It is NOT the long road that looks overgrown. Don't make the same mistake we did. ⚠️🤣
