Visited to hike two trails that is part of the Florida State Forest Trailwalker Program (Tram and Twin Mills). We were here most of the afternoon and didn't see anyone, very peaceful. The trails don't seem to get walked much. Definitely GPS the trail on your phone as several trail makers on Tram Trail seemed to be missing. Nice place to relax.

I live only 20 minutes from this state forest and I was a bit hesitant coming here to hike due to it being so remote. Boy I am glad that I went! I hiked the two main trails, Tram trail and Twin Mills. The tram trail runs on a old logging tram and there are remnants left of the rail line. The twin mills trail is very nice to hike as you enter a oak hammock. There isn't much wildlife during the day but Im sure there is during the evening. This is one of the only state forests in south Florida and I'm glad to live near it.

Beautiful area for nature viewing, hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. I stayed at the panther pond camp ant it had nice clean campsites. Very primative so no water, power, or bathroom facilities just a couple of outhouses. They were very clean the first visit but pretty bad the second time we visited. Nice large campsites with fire pit and picnic table.

An interesting variety of woodlands and marshy areas can be viewed on short scenic dirt roads and from a boardwalk through this beautiful state forest. Saw several deer, rabbits, cara caras, red and black headed vultures, tiny doves, and quail. Bring your camera and binoculars and plan on taking your time driving through Okaloacoochee to explore its hidden treasures.

So I've been there a week ago, and I used the entrance that I marked on the picture, using that way the park it's not so nice. We had a good deck to watch the swamp, and nothing more. Look like if it's just roads to hunting been using. No trail, and the picnic area was totally destroyed. Maybe to bike can be nice there. (Check the pictures attached here)

Very peaceful and relaxing. It was so nice to be away from people and the roads. Has a very Florida feel with lots of untouched trails and trees/plants. You could def make a day of it! We will be going back.

There is a quiet and deeply serene aura about this place that draws one into it. The dirt road paths invite to explore its wildflowers(when in season) and the sunrise/sunsets are majestic. I fell in love with it 2 yrs ago as i was crossing Southern Florida east to west and wanted to avoid boring I-75. I came back recently to explore it more. Included are some pictures of the outing

I'm a photographer and came across this park when a client from the other coast of Florida and I decided to meet halfway between us. It's such a beautiful park with so much property to explore. Wish we could've stayed longer! Photos by Katie Beiler Photography.

Have been to the preserve a few times, very calm and peaceful.

Love coming here to relax. It is very serene.

I frequent many state forests,wma’s and National wildlife refuges and the Ok slough is by far the best maintained one.The forest rangers and workers do a great job.Over the last 15 years many things have changed here but not the overall upkeep and great people working this land.I have seen bobcats ,black bear,otter,deer,turkey,armadillo,raccoons and most snakes our state has.Thanks for making such a great place in nature stand out above the rest.
