About the Business
Lake June-in-Winter Scrub Preserve State Park is a peaceful 845-acre park located at 630 Daffodil Street in Lake Placid, Florida. This park serves as a sanctuary for the endangered sand scrub ecosystem and is home to some of Florida's rarest plant and animal species, such as the Florida scrub-jay and gopher tortoise.
Visitors to the park can enjoy bird-watching, nature study, hiking along white sand fire lanes, and fishing from the lakeshore. The park also offers a half-mile nature trail, a picnic area with shelter, and the opportunity to launch canoes or kayaks onto the lake.
Please note that the use of ATVs, UTVs, and drones is prohibited at Lake June-in-Winter Scrub Preserve State Park and all Florida State Parks. The park is just a short drive from Lake Placid and Highlands Hammock State Park, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a remote wilderness experience. Admission to the park is $2 per vehicle, and exact change is required at the Iron Ranger.
Reviews
"It was very, very peaceful out there today. A couple people were enjoying the path and another couple was at the picnic table. We didn't see any animals, not even a bird! We did see litter at the lake and on the trail. May or may not visit it again one day. It costs only $2 to visit this little park area in some true Florida scrub."
"Rode my bike to and through the park, walked to the water and walked the trail. Saw an eagle, turtle doves, evidence of wild boar, report of a cottonmouth or water moccasin. Spring and moving water was a bug surprise!"
"My rating is based on the expectations of visitors. But it is an excellent place. This is a beautiful scrub park complete with scrub Jay's, a short nature trail, and lake access. This is a definite short stop for nature lovers, birders, and fishers. However, I don't think the limited focus of the park will suit those looking for a full day of excitement."
