Edward Medard Park was originally called Pleasant Grove Park and Reservoir before it was donated to The Southwest Florida Water Management District in 1969 by a mining company. Hillsborough County signed an agreement with the District in 1972 to develop the site as one of the county’s largest regional parks.

The 700-acre reservoir is the parks main attraction and is used for canoeing, boating, and fishing. There is also a 3-mile trail for equestrians, hikers and bird watchers. The park also has a disc golf course and a beach volleyball court. The park has canoe and kayak rental, but you must bring your own horse for the trail.

We camped here in January 2019 and again in January 2020. The sites are first-come, first-serve and have both RV and tent camping. This is a large park and we enjoyed bicycling and hiking.

The entrance is on Turkey Creek Road, 1 mile south of SR 60 (Brandon Blvd) in Plant City, FL.
