It's a nice park. I'm sure that where your lot is makes a difference…read more I like that the lots were spaced a bit and we weren't packed in like sardines and had lots of shade and greenery instead of just looking at other RV'S cramped together, row after row. Of note & sort of charming, were a couple of free range beautiful chickens and a gorgeous rooster that make their way through the park periodically. We are new at this and have only stayed at a few places close to home to try to get a handle on the RV life. We have a new Winnebaga Intent and there is a lot to learn. We stayed for a month and were parked across from someone who lives there permanently who had some very cute kittens running around for entertainment. Only 4 miles from a very nice beach community as well as the beach itself! Nice amenities. Very clean. Friendly, helpful staff. Not fancy but pleasant and peaceful. What is not to like?

It's close by...and I'll bet you didn't even know it!…read more It sounds sort of funny, but I never even knew this place was an actual park until recently. It was within walking distance of one of my friend's houses, and I somehow thought it was part of the neighborhood. This place may be cleverly disguised, but there is a lot to see and do, and this has one of the best inland walking paths in all of Port Ornage. The Good: Walk it off: Honestly the thing I like the most about Spruce Creek is the different walking trails. They go around the park, and even continue over the water, and everything is just beautiful. I used to come here all the time with friends and it was a cool spot to hang out. And if you're going on a mid-afternoon stroll with someone special, you really can't go wrong with this place. The trail is about 3 miles long, but even so, it feels very short. Nice and quiet: Aside from the occasional field trip, this place is almost never crowded. This could, of course, be due to the fact that this place is huge, and even when there are a lot of people you just don't notice them. Spend the day: While there's not really a whole lot to *do* per se, there are picnic tables and playground equipment. If you are trying to spend a nice relaxing day out, Spruce creek is the perfect place The Bad: N/A Spruce creek is a very peaceful and tranquil place to go visit, away from the noise of Daytona Beach. While it might not have as much stuff to do as a lot of the other volusia parks, I count that as a good thing. Overall 8.8/10= Just Chillin'

If I lived anywhere near here, we'd be at this spring every weekend! There were no crowds present…read moreduring our off-season visit on 9-25 and the water was still between 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit. That is how the spring is year-round. We paid a $5 vehicle entry fee to the park, brought our own tubes and stripped down to our swimwear before walking to the start of the run (Rock Springs Run). We found ourselves a slippery rock to launch from and away we went! The current is strong, so you fly through the run pretty quickly up until you reach the "spring head". There were lots of families just hanging out here, listening to music, picnicking and the like. Once you get past that part, the current picks up again. We saw fish, birds, otters, wild turkey and a turtle during our visit. We did not see any gators, thank God! It was so relaxing and serene (aside from a few Bluetooth speakers blasting some tunes). We didn't stay more than a couple of hours, having done the run several times. The park's facilities are meager. The concession stand isn't open during the off-season, the bathrooms were borderline gross, and the lockers were old, small, beat-up and you had to bring your own lock. We opted to cover the windows in our SUV and do our toweling down and changing there. As far as outdoor adventures go, you can't beat the fun you'll have here for $5/vehicle. The water is crystal clear, and you can just float the run if you'd like. Some people were snorkeling and digging for gems/crystals and shark teeth (not sure that there are any really there though). Good, clean fun for people of all ages.

What a beautiful little gem!…read more I've seen Kelly Park - Rock Springs pop up on my Instagram and TikTok SO many times, but I kept reading that it gets PACKED during busy season. My husband and I celebrated 13 years together on September 29th, took the day off, and last minute decided to finally check it out. I'm SO glad we did. It ended up being the perfect way to celebrate our love. We did the lazy river THREE times, and it was honestly exactly what our sore muscles needed. The water was definitely cold, but in the best way! There were spots where the sun would shine through the trees and hit my skin, and it felt absolutely amazing. I also loved that you can find your own little spot along the river if you want to hang out for a while. We brought our own floaty and just relaxed. I didn't really swim, but I tried walking parts of the river and, for reference, I'm 5'1" and the water was around waist-deep for me most of the time. The park itself is HUGE, and because it was nearly empty when we went, it literally felt like we had the whole place to ourselves LOL. They have a concession area, although we didn't grab anything, and the bathrooms were clean. Admission was only $6, which felt like such a steal for the experience. And the best part? It's only about 30 minutes from home for me! So happy we found a new little local gem. Definitely excited to come back!

This 17-acre historic site was once a thriving sugar plantation built in the 1830's out of coquina…read more Coquina is a unique sedimentary rock made almost completely of shells from invertebrates. The walls of the historic Florida fort Castillo de San Marcos in Saint Augustine are made entirely of coquina. It is also widely used to pave roads in the Caribbean and as a base for concrete in Florida homes. This natural product is soft when first quarried and usually left to dry several years to allow it to harden for building purposes. In truth, this place is a victory for the Seminole Indians. They raided it and chased off the overseer of the business just 5 years after its builders Henry Cruger & William dePeyster acquired the land and began sugar production. According to the on-site information plaque, the sugar mill slaves were responsible for helping the Indians stage their raid. I can't imagine the consequences those slaves faced for their rebellion once the United States army waged war against the Indians. The slaves work was dangerous. Aside from clearing land and attending to the sugar cane itself, they were also involved in the production. The Engine House consisted of a boiler, steam engine and cane crusher that extracted the juice of the sugar cane. The liquid was then heated in a series of large kettle bowls until it was thick, cooled to crystallize and then stored. The largest area of the ruins still visible, forming a foundation (but missing most walls) is the sugar storage facility. You can see remnants of the cane crushers gears as well as the various sizes of the metal kettle bowls, also known as a train. URBAN LEGEND has it that people in the late 1800's came across this land after many years had passed and believed it was a chapel or convent built by Christopher Columbus. The information plaques also seem to suggest the owner of the ruins at the time, Jeanette Connor, promoted the theory. Perhaps for tourism and financial gain or status. Also visible are remnants of the crusher and saw mill once located here. FINAL THOUGHTS Ruins are poetic to old history lovers like me who often get caught up imagining what life must have been like when the mill was in full use. Can you imagine being able to go back in time and observe places like this in operation? Of course being African-American I'd also need a cloak of invisibility or I might get put to work! But I'd like to observe just how they managed to keep their joy and faith in the midst of horrific conditions. No one knows what they will say to the Almighty Creator when they finally come face to face with him. Some don't even believe he exists. But I like to think I would request to be placed before an EPIC cosmic-sized big screen and watch just how He created the heavens, the earth and all its creatures, both known and extinct. I'd also like to see a complete recall of historic events and why man has done the things he's done, both great and atrocious. While to some this place was just an old sugar mill, to me it's a place where humans fought injustice, however successful or unsuccessful they may have been. 2016/54

My experience ultimately ended with me being kicked out of the campground approximately eight…read moremonths ago following an incident with a maintenance employee. He came to my camper, appeared intoxicated, and was beating on my door while angrily confronting me about a deck that I had no choice to build because the whole place floods and the owners refuse to address it. I told him to get away from me and specifically asked that management come speak with me so the issue could be handled through them instead. Rather than management addressing my concerns about his behavior, I was the one removed from the campground because I told the employee to "get the fuck away from me." I don't deny saying it. I absolutely did. But I said it while telling an employee who appeared drunk and was angrily beating on my door to leave me alone and get management. That's what bothers me most about the entire situation. Management had an opportunity to come speak with me, hear both sides, and address the behavior of their own employee. Instead, I was removed. I later learned that I was not the only camper who had experienced serious problems involving this employee. Since then, I have researched the situation further and found publicly available records that raised additional concerns for me. I'm not going to speculate about anyone's motives or claim that an arrest or charge is a conviction, but I strongly encourage prospective campers--especially families and long-term residents--to do their own research and make their own judgment. Eight months later, I'm writing this because I think future campers deserve to know what my experience was. If an employee can show up at a camper's door apparently intoxicated, beat on the door, initiate a confrontation, and management's response is to remove the camper for telling that employee to get away from them, that's a campground I cannot recommend.

Additionally, we have a toy hauler so when we we opened the door, we were basically hovering over it. The grounds did have a pool, very clean rest rooms and laundry. I didn't like that the laundry room didn't have detergent vending machines or a coin machine. It was inconvenient. In the end, the grounds were sufficient for us since we were just there at night to sleep. We were off with family during the day.

We have enjoyed all of our visits to Sunny Sands and find it to be a very relaxing place to spend…read morethe day around the pool or walking. Most of the other guests are very friendly, and we always leave making new friends. This is an AANR resort, which we like. First-time guests must complete a background check, which adds a level of safety for all guests and residents. There is a discount day fee rate for all AANR members and our entry fee for us as a couple was only $34.08. Non-AANR visitors must complete a background check each time they visit. The grounds are well-kept and maintained, and all of the facilities are clean. A poolside bar serves full alcohol, or you can bring your own and keep your cooler at the pool if you have no glass. The drinks at the bar are decent and fairly priced. The bar has a kitchen, and you can order from a limited menu. The food is decent and priced well. The front gate is attended, but we usually have to call when we arrive, and the attendant will meet us to check us in, collect our fees, and then open the gate for us. Annual members can get a FOB to access the gate unattended. Service can be hit or miss in the bar/kitchen. Dee Anne (sp) does a wonderful job and is fast and friendly. Another bartender also does housekeeping and is incredibly slow, so we have learned to avoid the bar when she is working. We will continue to return to Sunny Sands and recommend it to all our naturalist friends.

I have a home in palm coast with a private pool and may start seeking others from Sunny Sands to visit and enjoy the wind and sun as we did there, once. Sometimes new owners don't get it, they buy because it was successful and they mess it up by killing what made it to begin with, sad.
