Edward Medard Park Campground

Ranger and staff are extremely friendly. Campground bathrooms are acceptable....just showing some age. Most sites are a bit too close together. Bring your boat, kayak, or canoe. (or rent one of theirs) Large idle speed only reservoir for fishing. Just watch for gators, especially if you're not native to Florida. They're sneaky.
Several trails to bike or hike. Disc golf is available, too.

We came here after purchasing our travel trailer to spend our first week getting it set up and really enjoyed this park. It’s a great value at $18 a night for those over 55, I believe it’s $25 for others. The campsites were flat, a bit difficult to back into for a newbie like me, but manageable. The walks around the lake should not be missed, as I saw plenty of birds and fish. They don’t take reservations, but the week we were here in October. There were open sites available. there are several sites with 50 amp connections and all have 30 amp as well

This is a beautiful park and it gets a lot of day use. It is in a reservoir so there are boaters and fishermen. The campground is at the end of the road so it gets only camper traffic. There are 2 hiking trails and biking outside the park was nice. Good restrooms and showers. The sites are large with tables and fire pits. If you are near Plant City this is a must. No reservations are taken. There are 42 sites and it probably fills up sometimes. This weekend there were some empty sites.

We stayed here for two nights. All sites are first come first served. I called ahead of time to see if they have any openings so we headed there. Check in was easy, right at the camp entrance and the rangers are very friendly. Lots of improved roads to ride bikes. The sites are shady with some vegetation in between sites, but you can still see your neighbors. Although, when we stayed there, every other site was empty for distancing. There was also kayak rentals but I saw alligators so we opted not to do this activity. This park is also a short drive to a Walmart.
