- Karen BGranite Springs, NY20 contributionsThe staff was kind, informative and patient (even when we came in with two boys who were stir crazy from a long drive.) We loved the kid’s area and gardens. The kids were too boisterous for the art collection, but from what I saw it was amazing! It was money well-spent and I plan to come back (when kids are calm.)Written May 30, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- KrisandJoyce FSlocomb, AL87 contributionsWhat a great find this was! We were in town for a show and decided to stay a few days. This place was awesome and rich in history. The remains of the slave cabins were incredible and in good shape. The downloadable audio tour was a great bonus! No charge to come see this gem of a site!Written July 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Brenda COrmond Beach, FL29 contributionsthis is a great place to shop. You can find anything that you are looking for. I went through many of the stores and found everything that I was looking for. It is clean and neat and the restrooms were very nice.Written February 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Tom LJacksonville, FL86 contributionsI went to the beach for the day. I walked about 1/2 mile down the beach from the main parking and was all by myself. There's nothing there but beach and nature, so if that's what you're looking for then it's 5/5. Bring bug spray! Even on the beach little biting flies drew blood. But it was awesome to basically have the place to myself.
Remember, it's florida so best to have a tent / canopy / umbrella to block the sun. And lots of sunscreen. And water. It's hot out there and there is no relief. It's just you and the beach.Written June 6, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We look forward to returning to camp.Written August 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- sheronb6139 contributionsNice little enclave and section of beach. Felt like I was in the Carribean. The retail restaurant section of the beach called beaches Towne Center was very upscale, clean and had a Carribean Bahama village feel.Written October 15, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rita SMelbourne, FL1,920 contributionsSpectacular views of the river and city line. Level pavement shared by walkers, cyclists. and joggers. Benches throughout. Finding parking was challenging.
