Clearwater Lake Campground

Spend your weekend - or a week or more - beneath the shady oaks at Clearwater Lake Campground, a quiet oasis in the southeast corner of the Ocala National Forest. This 42-space campground provides breezy lakefront sites along Clearwater Lake [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ocala/recreation/recarea/?recid=32313]. It accommodates both trailers and tents, and has bathhouses with warm showers. Campers can swim, grill up a steak, take a walk around the lake on the nature trail [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ocala/recreation/recarea/?recid=37186], go mountain biking on the Paisley Woods Bicycle Trail [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ocala/recreation/recarea/?recid=32311], take a hike on the Florida Trail [http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/ocala/recreation/recarea/?recid=40330], or just drift across the water in a kayak, trailing a line and waiting for a nibble.
