View of lake next to my campsite |
This is my view of the rest of the empty campground. Campers
seem to like the sites in an open field with power & water hookups. Since
it has been sunny all week my deep cycle batteries are fully charged by noon
each day. I only run my generator for a few minutes if I need to use my
microwave oven.
The campground boundary is the Peace River that flows from Winter Haven to Port Charlotte, FL. Peggy and I have paddled several different sections in the past. We stayed here in 2019 for 3 days and camped in the crowded camp with 50 amp power. We brought our lightweight canoe & cart with us so we could pull our canoe back from the river take-out to our campsite that you can see in the distance.
Zolfo Springs is very small town about 10 x 10 blocks in size with a few essential service, but just north about 5 miles is the Hardee County seat, Wauchula, FL with lots of stores and schools.
I rode my bike around town and also did a 13 mile ride to a Walmart in Wauchula using a small county road, staying off the main highway US-17.
I plan to leave early on Sunday morning and bike around Babcock Ranch which is a few miles north of my destination for Superbowl Sunday, WP Franklin - Corps of Engineers campground, which is by the last lock on the Caloosahatchee River, east of Fort Myers.
Maybe u will find a house to buy in Babcock Ranch☺️ ❤️joan
