Visitor’s Guide to Oscar Scherer State Park
Oscar Scherer State Park might not be the first place people talk about when planning a Florida adventure, but after spending three days there, I can say it offers a lot more than you’d expect. It’s tucked between Sarasota and the Gulf, surrounded by neighborhoods, yet filled with quiet trails, peaceful paddling, and a surprising amount of wildlife.
We didn’t stay overnight, but we explored plenty—and I left thinking a glamping trip here would be perfect next time. If you’re thinking about checking it out, this guide has everything you need to know before you go.
