Fed by crystal-clear springs, Sweetwater Lake is known for its calm waters and lush surroundings. Unlike some of the developed campgrounds in O'Leno, Sweetwater Lake offers a more rustic camping experience. Keep your eyes peeled for a variety of birds, turtles, and maybe even the occasional alligator sunning itself on the shore.
