Lake June in Winter Scrub State Park, State park at Lake June in Winter, Florida.
The 845-acre Lake June in Winter Scrub State Park features three miles of lakefront, sandy trails, and natural scrub habitat along the western shore.
The land holds remnants of previous turpentine production activities, with visible scars on pine trees marking the industrial past of this natural area.
Dr. Melvil Dewey, creator of the Dewey Decimal System, influenced the naming of Lake June and surrounding landmarks based on his New York resort.
Visitors can access hiking trails, fishing spots, and launch points for canoes from 8 am until sundown, with a $2 per vehicle entrance fee.
The park protects one of Florida's most endangered natural communities, providing habitat for Florida scrub-jays, scrub lizards, and gopher tortoises.
