Silver Between the Lakes
Lake Kissimmee State Park
April 13-17, 2023
Arrive 4/13/2023 Depart 4/17/2023
Lake Kissimmee State Park has a lot of recreational opportunities: Endless bicycle and hiking trails, three lakes to fish or paddle, Segway tours and an 1870s Cow Camp with volunteers to describe the life of cow catchers in early Florida cattle history.
Make sure you bring your fishing poles, bicycles, and hiking shoes. Bok Tower is a half hour away from the campground so an outing to the gardens is in the works, should be spectacular in the spring. Come join us as we explore this beautiful historic park.
There will be an art class, bike tour and games along with other activities and group meals.
Secure your campsite (https://reserve.floridastateparks.org) and then register online at the FAC website (airstreamclub.org/florida).
Wanderinglabs.com is a great resource to snag a campsite if all the sites are full, it has worked for us several times!
More details to follow.
Hosts: Bob & Lyn Masters, Mike & Maryanne Swegles
Since this is a state park it is best to register as soon as possible to assure a site. Earliest registration date is May 14, 2022 on reserve.floridastateparks.org to arrive on April 13th.
Attempt to get a site in Loop LK2.
