Amy GraySo glad we finally found it. GOOGLE maps takes you to the parking lot for Weeki Wachee mermaid show. I finally called the park and was given correct directions. It was so nice to drive thru the different areas that Florida is known for. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area!

Thomas BonnerVery cool place to explore! Very large area with many roads through the woods. Will definitely be back to explore more areas. Would love to explore the old saw mill ruins, just haven't found them yet.

Jen RamirezWe had an amazing time discovering this little gem. There are lots of gravel roads, twisting all around, with a couple amazing springs/ swimming holes. Scuba divers know about this place because of the 100 ft+ deep caves. Beautiful tree cover. Super fun for a few hours of family exploration for only $6 per vehicle.

TJBeautiful place to go for a hike or even a drive down the dirt roads. Hunting and scuba diving are also very common. I love to come here and work up a sweat on a hike and then take a splash in the river to cool down. This place has a very mellow vibe, a great place to come and relax.
