About
The site is located at the north end of Lake Yale. The major feature is a shallow marsh. The majority of the property is comprised of forested and herbaceous wetlands. The Sawgrass Island Preserve is a great place to visit if you want to experience a natural area far away from the urban environment. There are two primitive camping sites. They have a fire ring, picnic table and a post. Water must be carried in because there is no water source. It is only available by permit.
