Beautiful park. If you look closely, you will likely see several alligators and birds, as well as other wildlife. Very serene.

Beautiful, swampy Florida -- a gorgeous natural setting complete with alligators, wading birds, and a spectacular boardwalk.

this park is above all others. a huge child's play are. A boardwalk to walk through wilderness. picnic area to enjoy with your family. there are also Kayak rentals. that was a real surprise to me. just off 75 makes it an easy find.

My husband and I went there to hike and photograph birds. We were delighted with the wonderful boardwalk through hammock and swamp. We saw a roseate spoonbill up close and got great photographs. A night heron sat and stared at us from just feet away. The place is serene and very special.
