.  We had a great week with a group of 10 sailors at Lake Arbuckle campground in Avon Park FL.

                                  Lake Arbuckle County Park

Feb 3-10 2026
We are helping to coordinate and share this new sailing  location in central Florida. It checks most of the boxes for a good Sails Angels gathering.  It has mix of 35 RV & 20 tent sites located in a cypress forest on a to 3800 acre lake that is approx 4.5 miles long and 1.5 miles wide. There are a few bugs, hot showers and toilets. The boat launch  is next to the camping area. The area is popular with a few local fishing enthusiasts  launching throughout the day and evening. Air boats are uncommon but can appear. The McDill Airforce base at the end of the lake sends up a few planes and makes noise sometimes. The nearest big town is Sebring - 32 miles. There is usually a good breeze,the birding and wildlife are great,we enjoy biking on the entrance road and  the Lake Wales Ridge State Forest land  just a mile away.

The Lake Arbuckle County park will begin accepting reservations sometime this summer. The sites are currently $20/night and first come first served with space always available weekdays and most weekends in the winter.
