Three Rivers State Park

Three Rivers State Park sits near the Georgia border and stretches along Lake Seminole with forests and rolling terrain. The park contains several recreation areas and a full-service campground spread throughout its grounds.

The park was established in 1955 at the spot where the Chattahoochee and Flint rivers from Georgia meet to form Lake Seminole and continue as the Apalachicola River. This water system has shaped the region for centuries.

The park is part of the Great Florida Birding Trail, drawing people who want to watch American bald eagles and many water birds. Visitors come here to experience the importance of wetlands and river systems in the region's natural heritage.

The campground accommodates vehicles and provides water, electricity, picnic tables, and grill rings year-round for those who want to stay overnight. The best times to visit are fall and winter when wildlife watching is most rewarding and trails are easiest to navigate.

After Hurricane Michael in 2018, the park went through major restoration work and demonstrates how natural areas can recover over time. Many visitors are struck by how wildlife and plants have gradually come back to life across the grounds.
