Exclamation point.Park Alerts for Lafayette Blue Springs State Park

Due to the rain associated with Tropical Storm Andrea we are experiencing "Brown-out" conditions at Lafayette Blue Springs State Park and have closed the spring to swimming and diving. Although the spring has not reversed floe at this time we do expect to later during this evening or by tomorrow morning.

All other amenities are open and available. We will monitor the conditions closely and reopen as soon as conditions improve.

 Welcome to Lafayette Blue Springs State Park

Visitors can take a dip in this first magnitude spring, walk across the natural limestone bridge that crosses the spring run flowing into the Suwannee River or picnic under the oaks with their swaying Spanish moss. Fish or canoe on the Suwannee River or stay in one of the park's rental cabins, which stand on stilts high above the spring. Bicycling, hiking and wildlife viewing are favorite pastimes for visitors. The picnic area has tables, grills and two pavilions, which are popular for family reunions and parties. Walk-in tent camping in the full-service campground is available to visitors and also serves as a river camp for travelers along the Suwannee River Wilderness Trail.
