The park features lake fishing, primitive and developed campsites, cabins and cottage, 2.5-mile (4.0 km) nature trail, picnic area, and two disc golf courses. [3] A narrow levee surrounds a third of the spring-fed lake which, in its shallows, has cypresses and dense vegetation.
The 225-acre (91-ha) lake offers fishing, water skiing, and swimming. The lake is stocked with largemouth bass, bluegill, shellcracker, crappie, and channel catfish.The park features 25 primitive tent-camping areas, 125 RV camping pads with water, sewer and electrical hookups, and 16 vacation cabins.
A campground store reopened in late 2010 (after being closed following storm damage from Hurricanes Ivan and Dennis in 2004 and 2005, respectively). There are no sewer hookups at the campsites; however, a dump station is available. The campground is located approximately 1.5 miles (2 km) from Fort Pickens itself.
