Pretty great me and my friend spent 3- 4 hours here, it was raining pretty bad all morning and day, still is now(11pm) Minus the weather it was very pleasant and enjoyable!

Beautiful! The highlight of our trip to Florida- the whole family from 2 to 62 had a blast here!

Fun hidden springs, with beautiful crystal clear water. Bring your own tube and have a great day!

Spectacular clear spring lazy river tubing! Bring goggles and snorkel gear to get a more intimate experience with the fishies and the spring. There is a big playground, bbq grills, and stairs down into the spring. Perfect full day trip with snorkeling, tubing, and picnicking. Walk upstream to get in with the tubes, then float down past the main swimming area to the end of the lazy river area. Watch for orange trees as you walk back upriver. Don’t go on Saturday! It fills up by 8am, and the park closes, allowing no one else the rest of the day.

Absolutely love coming here! Definitely come early in the morning around 6-6:30am because the line gets long quick. I highly recommend either renting or bringing a tube because there is an area with rocks. Also, I recommend wearing water shoes because of the rocks. Really fun place to swim at, have a cookout and relax. Always enjoy coming here.
