Edward Medard Conservation Park

Among its main attractions is a 700-acre reservoir used for canoeing, boating, and fishing. Also included is a 3-mile trail that offers equestrians, hikers, and bird watchers a pleasant trip through pine flatwoods and hardwood hammocks. Please note, we do not provide horseback riding rentals. You must bring your own horse.

The park also has a disc golf course for those Frisbee enthusiasts who want to enhance their disc-throwing skills, while the beach volleyball court provides the players a scenic view of the sunset. Edward Medard Park also offers picnic shelters, a boardwalk, a playground for the kids, and an observation platform overlooking the reservoir.

*The boat ramp at Edward Medard Conservation Park will close indefinitely beginning Monday, June 9, while the Southwest Florida Water Management District partially draws down the Medard Reservoir. The County will need to close the boat ramp as a result of the decreased water level but access for smaller vessels such as canoes or kayaks should not be affected.
