| State Park Overview: |
| Where Florida meets the southwest corner of Georgia, the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers converge to form Lake Seminole, the setting for this peaceful park. Hiking through forested hills of pine and mixed hardwoods, visitors might catch sight of fox squirrels, white-tailed deer, gray foxes, or many species of native and migratory birds. Anglers can launch from a boat ramp to enjoy some of the best freshwater fishing in the state, or fish from a 100-foot pier in the camping area. A shady picnic area, with tables and grills, overlooks the lake. For large gatherings, a picnic pavilion that seats up to 60 people is available for rental. Overnight visitors can stay in a full-facility campground next to the lake or enjoy the comforts of a modern cabin. Located two miles north of Sneads on State Road 271 (River Road). |
| Nature of the Area: |
| Wildlife and bird viewing opportunities are bountiful at Three Rivers State Park! Bald Eagles make their nests within the park, and can be seen soaring over the lake. Waterfowl by the hundreds seek refuge in the quiet bays and sloughs that surround the park. Deer are a very common sight, along with the ubiquitous raccoon and our own population of eastern fox squirrels. These large squirrels are a sight to behold, with silvery white fur, often with a mask of black covering their faces. Many species of rare or uncommon plants can also be found throughout the park. |

| Camping is permitted in the Lakeside Camping Area where we have 30 beautifully shaded and semi-private campsites available for reservation. 30 of these sites have water and electric. Both Florida and Georgia are in view from our campsites. We have a dump station conveniently located near the camping area. Reservations can be made through Reserve America.
Group Camping
Three Rivers offers an excellent group camp---the Highlands Group Camp. Up to 100 tent campers can stay in the camp, which features a large brick bathhouse. The bathhouse has separate sides for men and women, and each side has several showers, toilets, and sinks. Two new "group size" grills have been installed in the Highlands area. You must call the park directly at 850-482-9006 to make reservations to stay in the group camp.
RV Camping
There are 30 camping sites in our family campground, each with electric and water hookups, a picnic table, and grill ring. A dump station is located within the park. These sites will accommodate RV?s of varying sizes. Call Reserve America for more information or to make reservations. Firewood is available for sale in the campground at reasonable prices. Sorry, no gathering of firewood on park grounds. A small boat ramp is located in the campground, along with a large fishing pier that extends out onto Lake Seminole.

| Trails: |
| Two hiking trails are currently found in the park. One trail begins within our campground, offering campers a scenic stroll along the shoreline of Lake Seminole. The other trail begins at the edge of the park picnic area, and takes hikers on a moderately strenuous hike through the hill country that typifies this unique area of Florida. |
| Picnicking: |
| A large picnic area in the park overlooks Lake Seminole, providing spectacular views of the lake, and the Georgia shoreline on the opposite side of the lake. Three picnic pavilions, grills, picnic tables, and a restroom are located in the picnic area. A hiking trail also begins in the picnic area. A small fishing dock is also located in this area |
| Boating: |
| Three Rivers State Park borders on scenic Lake Seminole. The lake tends to be shallow in many areas, with considerable aquatic vegetation. Old tree stumps also are found throughout the lake. We find most of our seasoned boaters prefer shallow draft boats for these reasons.
Boat Ramp
There are two small boat ramps within the park, suitable for smaller watercraft. One ramp is located within the campground, for use by registered campers only. The other ramp is located close to the picnic area, for general use by park visitors. There are also two county-maintained boat ramps that will accommodate larger craft; one of these ramps is found on the eastern boundary of the park, the other is found on the western boundary of the park. |
| Fishing and Hunting: |
| Fishing is a popular activity at the park since Lake Seminole is well-known for its yields. Largemouth and smallmouth bass, catfish, bluegill, speckled perch, and bream are some of the fish that might be landed by anglers. A Florida fresh water fishing license is required for persons 16 years of age or older. |
