Located along the eastern edge of the Kissimmee River floodplain, Oak Creek has many old-growth oaks, some spanning nearly five feet in diameter. Enjoy the shade while you look toward the water’s edge.

On a spring day, you will delight in watching butterflies fly from wildflower to wildflower.

The Starvation Slough Airboat Launch also provides access to Starvation Slough and No Name Slough. If you walk far enough west into the floodplain anywhere along No Name Slough, you will see backfilled portions of the former C-38 Canal resulting from river restoration. You may ride a horse at both sloughs.

Hunting is managed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Visit myfwc.com for hunting dates, regulations and detailed license information.
