Juniper Lake

Juniper LakeJuniper Lake is a large lake located just 50 miles north of Destin Florida. The lake sits at an elevation of 190 ft above sea level. The Juniper Lake Campground is located on the east shore of Juniper Lake via a 13-mile paved/gravel road. From the town of Chester on Highway 36 East, look for signs to Drakesbad and Juniper Lake. At the Chester Fire Station, turn onto Feather River Drive. After about a half mile, bear right and follow signs to Juniper Lake. The last 6 miles is rough dirt road not suitable for buses, motor homes, or trailers.

Known as the “luckiest fishing village”, Destin is the home to some of the best saltwater fishing in the United States. The 100 Fathom  (600′ depth) Curve of the Gulf of Mexico draws closer
to Destin than any other spot in Florida. This, along  with  Destin’s close  proximity  to  the East  Pass  and  the Gulf  of Mexico, allows quick access to the Gulf of Mexico’s  fishing bounty.
The  purpose  of  this site  is  to acquaint a new fisherman  to  the Destin area  –  our local facilities, fish, waters and fishing methods. Tight lines and good fishing!
