Palm Gardens Restaurant and Marina on the Dead River, connecting the Harris Chain of Lakes and in Central Florida is many things. A fish camp, a marina, a restaurant. But more than that, it’s a place to gather together with friends and family in that beautifully timeless “Old Florida” atmosphere; surrounded by tall breezy palms and lots of shade on the Dead River connecting the beautiful Dora Canal, Lake Harris, and Lake Eustis.
Besides a beautiful and shady place to relax, we offer RV lot rental, access to a public boat ramp, pontoon boat rentals, bait & tackle, and much more. We sell non-ethanol marine fuel for your boat and of course, carry all the other standard amenities for your coolers such as cold beer, soft-drinks, bottled water, and snacks. We have everything you need to enjoy the river; just bring your boat, rent one of ours or call ahead to schedule a tour with Captain Ray of Native Boat Tours to depart from our marina and tour the beautiful Dora Canal-
