My Empty Fire Pit

[retired and happy]

I don't know where it is written, but you are not supposed to bring in firewood from outside of the area. There is concern about infestation of critters not native to the central FL area. Also there is a fire ring at the Meadows for smores and hotdogs, etc. It is in conjunction with the sing-along and movie. They do not provide campsite fire rings, but seem to tolerate standalone fire circles with integral top screens. These are not allowed during fire seasons. Other regulars may have more definitive advice here.

Definitely check/ask when you arrive. They generally will have posters up at all the comfort stations if fires are prohibited.

You need to bring your own covered firepit with you - no fireplaces/rings are provided.

And PP is correct, you're not allowed to bring wood in from outside the area. This is actually an issue in all the Massachusetts state parks now too.
