Spring brings the most comfortable conditions: 70–85°F, lower humidity than summer, and active wildlife in the hammock and along the lake. Water warms enough for swimming and paddling, and afternoon thunderstorms are still less frequent than in midsummer. Year-round temperatures range from mid-60s to high 80s. Summer heat intensifies. Sand gets hot enough that campers recommend shoes, and flies can be heavy in some areas. Parking fills up fast on busy days in any season, so arrive early.
Peak season with warm weather, perfect for water activities. Book early.
