About
Group Landing sits on the scenic shore of Ocean Pond within the Olustee Experimental Forest area of Osceola National Forest. This secluded group site offers a private sand beach perfect for swimming, shore-launching canoes and kayaks, and fishing. A larger boat ramp is available nearby at Olustee Beach for bigger watercraft. The facility includes an accessible bathhouse with hot showers and flush toilets, a large covered picnic shelter with tables, a barbecue grill, and a fire ring. Four sites with electric and water hookups can accommodate RVs up to 40 feet. Bear-proof garbage cans are provided. The surrounding landscape features tall pines and cypress draped in Spanish moss. Nearby attractions include Olustee Beach day use area, 22 miles of the Florida National Scenic Trail, and the historic Olustee Battlefield site of the largest Civil War battle in Florida.
