Find a Park

Paddle down the beautiful Little Manatee River or hike the vast system of trails. Little Manatee River begins in a swampy area near Fort Lonesome and flows almost 40 miles before emptying into Tampa Bay.

Camping, fishing, picnicking, hiking, bird-watching - there’s a little something for everyone. The park extends three miles along the south shore of its namesake, beautiful Lake Manatee.

The Inglis Main Dam, the larger of two spillway structures for Lake Rousseau, is located at this site and provides an access bridge onto Inglis Island’s south side.
