Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Reed Bingham State Park adventure.
Nature lovers and wildlife watchers flock to this lake and surrounding coastal plains.
The 375-acre Lake Reed Bingham is the star attraction at Reed Bingham State Park. Visitors can explore the water lily and tupelo tree-lined lake by boat, by renting a canoe or kayak, or by fishing for bass, crappie, catfish, and bream. However you choose to explore, you’ll likely spot wildlife along the way, such as bald eagles, tortoises, and alligators. Back on land, seven miles of walking and biking trails lead through the park’s diverse ecosystems, from bald cypress swamp to sand hills and a pitcher plant bog. Reed Bingham State Park Campground serves tent and RV campers, while one primitive, paddle-in island campsite sleeps up to 30 people.
Reed Bingham State Park is open year-round, and while most visitors arrive in summer, there’s plenty of appeal throughout the year. Boating and paddling are popular in the hot summer season, while the cooler temperatures of fall are ideal for hiking and biking. In winter, birdwatchers can see nesting bald eagles as well as thousands of migrating black vultures and turkey vultures.
