We unloaded the canoe here from Silver Springs and rode in the van back. It was pretty convenient but the water was no silver springs. Quite dark

Questions & Answers

Is there a spring head close to the boat launch and if so how far and which direction?

Jo Lanier | Sep 22, 2019
Michael Jacobi | Sep 22, 2019

There is not. They are probably small springs along the river, but you won't see them. When you hit the river from launch, turn right and go five miles to get to head springs. You can't get out of boat once you are up there though. Beautiful though.

Can you rent kayaks there?

Lauren Krebs | Sep 21, 2021
Greg Smersh | Sep 21, 2021

No, I do not believe that you can rent kayaks. We were there recently (during the week) and there were no employees. Just a sign on the "entry shack" indicating that the $5 entry fee was on an honor system.

I want to take my family up the river to silver spring S and back, how deep is the water? What size boats will make the journey?

Thinking about taking the boat from Little Lake Harris to Silver Springs. Can you overnight the boat here to camp one or two nights at the park? Is there anywhere nearby that allows overnight docking? Not to stay aboard overnight, just docking.

No, you can't overnight at the boat ramp or at Silver Springs. There is a campgroind across the Ocklawaha bridge- Wilderness RV. They may have dockage available.
