First time I have heard of Carney Island State Park. Googled it and there it was, a park on Lake Weir near Belleview. Looks nice - will try to check it out when we get back to TV.

You might also look into Rainbow Springs and Alexander Springs Parks. Both are very nice and have swimming in the springs. Alexander has a sandy beach, while Rainbow has a swimming dock. Both are about a 45 minute drive from TV. Rainbow to the West in Dunnellon (which has some nice thrift and antique stores) and Alexander to the East off Hwy 42 to Hwy 19 North.
