Okaloacoochee Slough State Forest lies mostly within Hendry County, with a section located in Collier County. The state forest was purchased under the Conservation and Recreation Lands (CARL) program using Preservation 2000 and Save Our Rivers funds.
The Florida Forest Service manages Okaloacoochee Slough State Forest for multiple uses. Multiple-use management practices on the forest focus on ecosystem restoration, silvicultural and watershed management, recreation and wildlife management, and archaeological and cultural resource management.
The Okaloacoochee Slough, the forest's namesake, is a 32,370-acre pristine slough that is oriented north-south through the forest. The natural systems of the Fakahatchee Strand and Big Cypress Preserve are dependent on the water supplied by the Okaloacoochee Slough. The Okaloacoochee Slough is one of the few places in South Florida north of the Everglades or Big Cypress National Preserve where the pre-Columbian landscape can still be observed.

The forest offers a variety of recreational activities for visitors. There are many miles of open forest roads available for hiking and bicycling. Fishing opportunities are plentiful in the numerous canals, ponds and ditches that are accessible by vehicle. Several areas can be found for those who enjoy a hike to an isolated fishing spot. The forests wetlands provide opportunities for wildlife viewing. For more information Click Here.
Campground is arranged in a loop with portable restrooms and a dumpster located at the south end. Each site also includes a picnic table and fire ring with grill.
