Swampy's Florida

Swampy’s #Florida: Everyday Outdoors!

Took many photos last Saturday at P.E.A.R. Park in south lake County, south of Leesburg.
Here’s one along the Palatahaka River clearly showing tannic water.

Here’s how you can plan a trip to the park:
There are TWO addresses.
Despite the website, trust me, this is the address you should use:
Directly across the street from the entrance to 5241 Legacy Blvd, Leesburg, 34748
Here’s the website, which shows the OTHER address:
https://www.lakecountyfl.gov/…/parks_and_tra…/pear_park.aspx

The other address will send you down, what appears to be an abandoned road. Down that road you’ll see a cheap wooden sign for PEAR Park. After you pass that, you’ll wonder where the park is for aways until you get to a small parking lot that will have no explanation as to where you are. There is a tall descriptive display board with information just beyond the parking area.

In other words, the signage for the park stinks.
