Get ready for a morning of bass fishing at Lake Eaton when you visit the pier and boat ramp providing access to this broad, shallow, cypress-lined lake. This day-use area is adjacent to the Lake Eaton Campground.
Lake Eaton is available on a first-come, first served basis only for day use. Visitors must physically arrive at the site to claim a parking spot. For convenience, passes may be purchased online in advance. Please note the purchase of a pass in advance does not guarantee parking availability.
Alternatively, pay the fee after arriving on-site by scanning the QR code using the Recreation.gov mobile app. Download and sign into the free Recreation.gov mobile app on Android or iOS prior to your arrival as there is poor cellular service at the site: https://www.recreation.gov/mobile-app
