Rood Creek Park

An amazing, quiet and secluded spot! The lake could be seen at our site and the view was phenomenal! Site are accessible via a long dirt road (trust your GPS! You're going the right way!). We arrived at night and it was still very easy to find. We only stayed one night, but you are allowed a max of 14 consecutive days within a 30 day period. Each site had a picnic table, fire pit, and a trash can. Not too sure what pet policy is in place, but leashes are always your best bet as we spotted multiple gators in the water! They were curious and did come closer to the shore line while we sat at the picnic table with our two dogs! Would definitely stay again, and recommend you to as well!

This is one of the few free sites I’ve found that doesn’t require you to drive 10 miles deep into a forest without cell phone service. There’s a good number of sites, they vary is size and are a bit close together, but they’re easy to find and I showed up in the afternoon on a Saturday and there were probably 10 or so spots out of about 20 open. It’s very scenic and loud with nature noises at night.
