Notes:  Large covered platform area with table. Has raised vault/pit toilet 150-ft. away from 

shelter to the left (southeast). WINTER 2024/5 UPDATE: just converted from day-use only shelter,

back to an overnight use camp. Paddlers that pass by during the day will still use this as a rest

stop; plan on having visitors during the day when camping here. Even though this campsite is

partially on land, there is not a fire ring here. Sits in a very pretty part of the Suwannee Canal.
