One of our favorite venues for outdoor get together/picnic for medium gathering of around 30 to 60 people. Relatively private as only one shelter in the vicinity. Restrooms and parking nearby, ample space for kids' activities/games/sports. Beautiful view of the lake just behind the shelter. Walmart and publix are only 4 minutes away, which is very convenient if you forget to pack anything necessary for the party.
