Just jump in!!! Is what you have to say and do, when visiting the natural spring; it's cold but 5min in you'll get used to it! Invigorating experience; try an early morning swim instead of coffee .

We absolutely love it here. Just down the road from the house, but a quiet , nature filled escape that reminds of of my favourite places in NY (no no, think St Lawrence). Come early or mid afternoon.

Manuel Ulloa-York

Early morning walks before and during sunrise will find you lots of surprises around every corner. Walk with a soft foot in order not to spook the wildlife for some great pictures!

The Ritz-Carlton

Guests seeking an adventure in a natural environment can canoe or kayak down the Wekiva River to view some of Florida’s old pristine landscapes and native wildlife

Rent a canoe to explore, swim , wear sunscreen ! Some campsites flood in high rain - be prepared, but don't let it deter you. Soft serve ice cream at concessions - cheap & delicious on a hot summer day!

Christina Clemons

Canoeing is fun, swimming in the lagoon though the water is sooo cold! Hiking is great as well just have insect repellent and lots of water!

Taylor Sasser

Beautiful park for snorkeling , canoeing , and catching a glimpse of Florida's amazing wildlife . Don't forget your sunscreen !

Denise Hill

The DJ keeps you going with your beer in hand in the water, got to do the waterside and also keep the beach ball in the air

Raul Luar

Gotta make sure I bring my swim trunks next time I visit. Wish the kayaking costs were a little more reasonable.

Please leave your boombox at home. Believe it or not, no one else wants to listen to Pitbull at 100 decibels.
