The hours line reads “5 a.m. to 9 p.m.” and adds: “Entrance and exit gates to the park are active as of July 6, 2026. Please use caution when entering and exiting the facility.” The page also carries an advisory that the park and ramp would close temporarily “Monday, May 11, through Wednesday, May 13, for resurfacing work.” The advisory has no year on the page, so treat it as old news and look for a current notice before you drive out (Lee County, retrieved Oct. 6, 2026).
The news line lists “restrooms, fishing pier, boat ramp, kayak launch, and pavilions of various sizes.” Amenities also list a Jogging/Walking Path, Playground, Bird Watching and Viewing Areas. The page does not give pier hours, rod limits or a count of pier spaces.
