    Lots of Alligators seen while canoeing. Canoes can be rented from the restaurant. Boat Launch has been redone recently. They also offer boat rides at the restaurant. Lots of wildlife to be seen, including turtles, snakes and yes big alligators. Tons of birds to be seen including herons and cranes. Fishing is decent in the river. Lots of big Tilapia and unfortunately Hypostomus. Lots of parking and very secluded.

    Visiting from out of town! Great kayak and boat launch! Kayak washing station, picnic pavilions, single picnic tables, and plenty of parking. Both launches have new docks. Food and drinks along with a campground on the site. Will be back on next visit.

    Great kayak/canoe launch dock. Even useable by handicapped.
    Small but adequate boat launch ramp.
    Fair amount of parking. Restaurant next to property, but didn't, t try it... BBQ.

    Remote kayak launch. Down a gravel road. Head towards Snook Haven. Great location on the River. Next to Snook Haven where you can get tasty food and listen to music every afternoon.

    Since there isn’t a lot of info on this launch, I thought I’d share. Turn down the dirt (and very bumpy) road towards Snook Haven and when you see the camp sign, turn left towards the boat trailer parking. The boat launch will be straight ahead, the kayak launch is left of the boat ramp. We actually missed it and unloaded at the boat ramp but it was nice because we were able to back the trailer right up to the water. I happened to look left after we unloaded the trailer and spotted it. It’s a nice kayak launch but you need to carry or cart your kayak about 50ft (I’m guessing) to get to it. If you go early, the ramps and parking lot are quiet. We went up the river a little more than 2 1/2 miles then turned around and went w the currant. Lots of beautiful scenery and wildlife especially gators!
