Kayaks and canoes are available to rent through the park office, adjacent to the pond. There is plenty of room to explore the pond and three-mile canoe trail, which starts at the pond’s far side. Paddles and life-jackets are also provided.

Visitors are encouraged to bring their own small watercraft as well. Electric motors are permitted but might startle the plethora of avian wildlife. The pond hosts a vast array of vegetation, which provides homes for fish, turtles, and the occasional alligator!
