Drive-in dispersed camping at Lake Mary puts campers inside Ocala National Forest, managed by the US Forest Service, with no developed amenities on site. Dispersed sites mean no assigned spots, no hookups, and no formal facilities. Campers should come self-sufficient. Trout Lake Primitive Sites, roughly 1.4 miles south, gives those wanting a more structured primitive setup a nearby alternative worth considering.
