Cypress Creek WMA is located in northeast Hamilton County, north of White Springs. This property consists of floodplain forests and planted pines along more than 10 miles of the upper Suwannee River. Hunting, fishing, wildlife viewing, hiking, and boating are among the recreational activities available in this quiet area. Caution should be used when operating boats and motors in the Upper Suwannee especially during low water periods.  Wildlife that may be observed on the area include white-tailed deer, beaver, turkeys, owls, red-shouldered hawks, and swallow-tailed kites. Anglers will enjoy abundant populations of largemouth bass, sunfish, catfish, and bullhead in the river. A boat ramp is located at Turner Bridge Park.  You can view a map of the Upper Suwannee basin on the Suwannee River Water Management District's website.
