Mid-late October is a great time to visit! The migratory birds are in full swing, the trees are turning & there’s even a number of walnut & pecan trees to harvest a little snack if the critters haven’t beat you to it. Absolutely fantastic sunsets!
Oh & we heard there’s alligators living in the lake so keep your pets close! But in the fall they go dormant for the colder season so we didn’t see any. BUT… late one night we did hear a huge repeated splashing/slapping sound in the water. We could only assume it was an alligator that snatched something & started barrel rolling. 😬
I absolutely love this park!! I began my summer road trip here and after traveling all the way to Montana and visiting multiple parks along the way, this is the one that warranted a second visit... Sherri and Jeff really know how to make it feel like a home away from home.... Thank you both so much for your exceptional standards for hospitality!!
