Peace River Hammock

Address:

2488 Mt. Pisgah Rd.
Ft. Meade

Details:

Peace River Hammock is a beautiful part of the Peace River Corridor of conservation lands that border the meandering Peace River. During your visit, you’ll have the opportunity to admire a small section of the spring and the rain-nourished blackwater river that begins in north Polk County and flows more than 100 miles south through seven other counties before ending in the Charlotte Harbor Estuary.

This 42-acre property was purchased in 1998 by Polk County and the Florida Communities Trust Program. Polk County manages the site. Part of the Peace River Trail runs through land managed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection Agency’s Bureau of Mine Reclamation. The previous owners left the site fairly natural.
