She seemed irritated that we were paying with a debit card, and when her card machine was slow, she got frustrated and just let us in for free. We went left behind the booth down a back road which lead to the lake. Very nice area with a small dock. Didn't catch any fish though. Overall, we would still come again.

Possibly the best $4 (per person) you will ever spend. We first went to the Blue hole spring near…read morethe caves, however the water was murky and brown with poor visibility. So I googled nearby springs and this recreation area came up. I was totally surprised to pull up and find that the water was super clear and blue. They have a pretty large swimming area with a diving board and slides. There is plenty of room to lay out and get sun. Also allow you to swim outside of the main area. The lifeguards were super friendly when I asked if I could swim outside the area and even told me where the underground cave was outside of the main area. Underneath the diving board is an entrance to another underwater cave. Be aware that there is a current in the main swimming area. We really enjoyed swimming/snorkeling in the area and seeing the underwater caves. It's a great value!!! I highly recommend hanging out here if you're in the area!!

I wish we had more time here to explore all of the canyons! It was so unusual and fun to walk…read morethrough! There is loads of shade in the interior of the canyon and water does trickle through so expect to get a smidge wet and dusty from the canyon. The shop was loaded with great merch but the bathroom was out of service for us so everyone had to use the single toilet handicapped room which wasn't exactly great. The parking fee and map etc can be a little confusing so just be sure to go inside to make sure everything is on the up and up. The rim trail runs immediately around the visitor center just follow the fencing to the left to stay around the rim go to the right to go down into the canyon itself. Both are worth it. We spent more time in the canyon :)

I had high hopes for this park and experienced high disappointment. POV: I walked the entire white…read moretrail and (attempted to) walk up all white canyons. Based on the numbering I went counter-clockwise from the visitor center, turning left each time there was an option. As far as diverting from the white trail to walk into any of the nine canyons, you are basically walking on riverbed. There are no trails into these canyons, which is very disappointing and, to me, not something I would show on a map. I visited during November of a relatively dry year. What about May after a wet spring? You wouldn't be able to see any of these! My shoes and socks have received a thorough drying as the temperatures warmed, but these chill my review. In order from best to worst: * Canyon #8, if you must pick only one canyon to walk into. There are a number of uninhibited side trails to see and climb (not vertically, only a little bit up the base slope) all different stone walls. * Canyons #3-5 also have nice views, but not as many side trails and a little more fencing/signing telling you not to go any further (though IMO you are OK as long as you don't try to scale rock walls or carve your name). * Canyons #2 and #7 were nothing to write home about. * The trail to Canyon #1 petered out without anything worth photographing. Mostly just walls. * I could not even find trails to Canyons #6 or #9. #9 had a creek split off but it quickly became untraversable. This is where actual trails would help... My view was very dim at that point. I continued back up the white trail to the top. As the trail gets closer to the visitor center, the views do get better. However, in multiple locations, you'll only really getting a good photo by stepping over the wooden fence that is signed DO NOT STEP OVER THIS FENCE. And in one location the fence lets you walk all the way to the edge where the rock drops off - a child could actually slip through the rocks and die without having ever crawled under the fence! Be very careful. Verdict: I wouldn't spend $5 here unless you are a naturalist who doesn't mind getting muddy and taking adventurous risks. Not enough for the average person to warrant a visit compared to some of the deeper, better marked, and safer places I've visited. But I got some decent views in the end so I'll round up.

Primitive CAMPING AT THE PARK…read more Memorial day weekend Absolutely love to stay really beautiful, super peaceful and quiet at night other than it being Memorial Day weekend once that cooled down absolutely amazing Camp site We got one of these smaller sites. I wanna say we were at number 10. It was very nice, but it is very unlevel so putting up a tent and walking around in the tent was rough on your feet because it was nothing but roots sticking up out of the ground Luckily enough, we were primitive camping, but still did take an air mattress, but if you were sleeping in a sleeping bag, this would have been a huge problem Something to think about four people who go to primitive camping, but glamp with generators lights, etc. be considerate of your neighbors yes, we do understand that. It was memorial day weekend, but our neighbors had a generator and lights on bright enough You could probably see it from the moon. Even after they went to bed, left their lights on! They were quiet and really kept to themselves even with the children they had with them, but it was not very primitive due to that was a huge bummer to hear a generator going all night long and to be lit up like Fort Knox Also, one of the problems with that is, we were specifically told that even if it was a battery powered generator, they were strictly not allowed, but yet there was clearly that rule is not enforced ADULT Noises Again, memorial day weekend there's drinking going on but for my first time experience here without going into detail, some people sound like chickens being strangled when it's ADULT TIME and you may want to pack a pair of headphones for your small children so that when they hear animals of the night, that sound like rabbits fighting for their life in the tent next to you that they are not scared by the two legged wildlife if you know what I mean lol Roads/car traffic/ATV Traffic was busy again. I'm going to say it was because of the fact that was memorial day but speeding is a major problem if you're planning on walking your little ones to the bathroom you will need to keep a hold of them because it's NASCAR from ATVs to side-by-side they go fast Bathrooms Clean BUT you can see through the curtains which made me really nervous because in my brain if I can see you, you can see me so I ended up bringing clothes pens and a super big beach towel to hang over the curtain Washer and dryer There is a washer and dryer on site that is free to use. It's pretty awesome because nobody really leaves their clothes in there too long and everyone shares it amazing. Lake/fiahing Fishing was absolutely amazing. There's multiple different boat ramps that you can go in Fish off of or you can bank Fish. Do keep in mind that you will need your fishing license because we did get stopped an the 2 men next to us did get a hefty fine for fishing without a license With this being said, I do plan to go again, but I'm going to try to veer away from Big holidays, just due to the fact of the strangled chicken situation

If you've never been to the Florida caverns being that there even is any caverns in the state of…read moreFlorida is pretty awesome and unique the experience is always exciting and fun. I've been to this cave a few times over the last 15 years.. and every time I've come, there's always something different about it. When you first get to the cave, be prepared to stop and pay five dollars to enter the state park this is probably one of the only cons about the whole place. I don't know why the state park doesn't include admission to the park along with your admission to the caves, all in one. . At any route five dollars per car load to enter the state park after driving some twists and turns you come up to the visitor center. Don't be discouraged by everybody coming out in sweatshirts or hoodies I was informed by our tour guide that these items would not be needed as the cave is a Balmy 65° all year round. We scheduled our tour online, which showed up three hours early. They're scheduling physically at the place is different from their scheduling online we showed up with the intentions of waiting around for two hours before our tour and was told by the visitor center. There was a tour leaving in five minutes if you want to jump on that one and I gladly accepted . We joined the tour group of about 25 people and Jack was our guide. A local FSU university student. He did a phenomenal job explaining that to the caves along with a lot of humor to make it more enjoyable. After a short three minute walk from the visitor center down to the entrance of the caverns at a depth between 60 and 100 feet underground.. you emerge in a area on a slight incline, surrounded by slag mites, and slag types. As you walk through the cave, your reminded that overtime, the cave changes, especially after hurricane Michael came through in 2018. The caverns apparently filled completely up to the ceiling and along with it brought several tons of sand into the caverns, which all had to be excavated by hand looking at the massive case system seems like such a daunting task, but with the help of volunteers from FSU in the surrounding area, they were able to get it done in three months time. Back to the caverns as you meandering your way throughout your showing multiple different formation names all of which I can't remember, and you come upon the original entrance to the caverns Jack explained to us the former owner of the caverns and their intended use as a tourist trap before eventually turning hands over to the Florida conservation corps.. the walk through the caverns just about 3/4 of a mile before emerging back out the other side and tour. I didn't wanna leave because it was so extremely hot the day that I went outside and being inside, the cave felt so much more relaxing.. Overall, it's a very unique experience . I highly recommend anybody that hasn't been to go to it. You will not be disappointed in anyway.. it's also very good for children as well. I had my eight year-old with me and they learned a lot..
