Learn more about alerts →Winter stargazers and birders who want the Milky Way overhead and crested caracaras at dawn. The screened-porch cabins have a ceiling fan and one outlet, and the concession at the ferry dock covers ice and firewood so you don't have to haul everything in.
No showers, no potable water at sites, no cell service, and a rough dirt access road eliminate most casual campers. Summer adds brutal heat, scarce shade, and serious mosquitoes. Pets aren't allowed, and the nearest real town is an hour away.

Context for the broader area surrounding Colt Creek State Park Campground, sourced from the federal Recreation.gov rec-area record.
Mittry Lake Wildlife Area lies in and adjacent to the floodplain of the Colorado River between <A HREF="https://www.usbr.gov/projects/index.php?id=297">Laguna</a> and <A HREF="https://www.usbr.gov/projects/index.php?id=150">Imperial Dams</a>. Mittry Lake covers approximately 750 acres, with much of the shoreline covered with cattails and bullrush. Mittry Lake has recently undergone rehabilitation work including marsh dredging, revegetation and fish habitat improvement, making it an ideal location for small game hunting and sportfishing. Major species for small game hunting include waterfowl, doves, quail, rabbit and raccoon. Major species of fish in the lake include largemouth bass, channel catfish, flathead catfish, crappie, and bluegill. There are no camping facilities and the area is for day use only. However there is a 3-lane boat launch ramp for motorized boating on the lake. The area is also very popular for nature study and birdwatching. <A HREF="http://www.blm.gov/az/st/en/prog/recreation/watchable/mittry.html"> More information. </a>

Florida's generous rainfall brings the landscape to life, though it's worth noting that trails and low-lying areas can become muddy after storms. If you're visiting after wet weather, waterproof boots will be your best friend—some trails may hold standing water for a day or two, creating temporary wetlands that actually attract even more birds and wildlife for patient observers.
Mild Florida winters favor camping, stargazing, and wildlife viewing with comfortable temps.
