The guide
Where exactly
From I-4 exit 32 in Lakeland, drive 6.8 miles north on US 98 to the park entrance on the right. The park is open until dusk
Cruisiest spot: Woods and parking lot.
When to go
am to pm
Sunset today · Sunrise tomorrow
Etiquette
cruiser adds: take the dirt path on left after entering parking lot....go to the next path on left..there are a few small paths into the woods that are very private Best to walk or ride a bike around paved path over and over becuse the parking area is small, and because you want to be sure other guys see what you look like too. And it helps 'cause some may get the benifit of losing a pound or two if nothing is going on.
Nudity: I am am sure, if you got lost in the woods.
Safety
Okay to sit in your truck for a little while, but go down the path so I can see you too.

I've been going for about a month now. This is a great place for crusing. I wish more guys knew about it, but there are always some guys there when I go. I've never seen any cops, and you can pretty much tell how many people might be there or what types of people are there just by looking at the cars in the parking lot. it's always better to go off thr main trails though, but look out for coral snakes. I saw one recently!

Another place ruined by people who cant take it elsewhere. Great place to meet then move on but way too many times people cant make it to the many hiding places that are right there. Many times I have seen poeple in the open, not everyone is out there for that. Take it into the woods behind the trees and you wouldnt have this problem. Like the verizon commercial states "It's a dead zone" now.

I go by here on my way home from work every day (about 4:00 - 4:15pm). The first time was great - a good time, but haven't had much luck finding guys the last couple times. If anyone's going to be there around that time, let me know and I'll make a point of stopping.
