We…read moretoured the beautiful NEW community and got a peek at all the amazing amenities -- like the Riverfront Sky Lounge (they serve @kookaburracoffee there!), a beautiful clubhouse with 100 inch screen TV, a resort-style pool, and so much more. These stunning modern apartments offer 1, 2 & 3-bedroom floor plans, a Romeo Juliet shower & tub, indoor parking, and they're pet-friendly too! We had the best time with Mayor Nancy Kline from @citystaug, Kara from @oldcitypr, and Liz Ryan from @thebeach1055, plus enjoyed live music by @ramonatheriot, had tasty bites from @asadolife, craft cocktails, and giveaways. If you're looking for waterfront living, this place is seriously worth a tour. Book yours at thesoutherlyattheshipyard.com -- 130 Shipyard Way, just steps from @asadolife!

WOW! Why have we chose to keep our boat here? Exceptional service hands down. From the moment you…read morearrive on the property you instantly feel welcome by all of the staff members. The boat guys are so respectful and help out in anyway they can. Lori is amazing as well. She will take care and guide you through any and every situation. She knows her stuff! They all work really hard to make sure you're taken care of don't forget to tip. The restaurant will be opening soon and it looks beautiful! It looks like a place you would want to casually hang out at even if you're not going on the boat. From the looks of it, they have great outdoor seating area as will as some fine dining inside. I literally can not wait to try it out. This marina is not a joke y'all ...it's luxury and I'm blessed to be part of it. If you are in need of a place to store your boat this is the place you want to be part of! Thank you to the hard working staff we appreciate you all!

What a neat little hidden treasure! They've got some lovely trails in here and incredible views…read more There is a kayak launch as well. And loads of different types of camping/cabin rentals available. And a pool! This day I went just to walk the trails and it's amazing how you can feel so far in the woods while still being basically in a neighborhood. The trails aren't very long but plenty to see along the way. I liked the tree house trail and seeing the neat treehouses you can camp in. And the views over the river are gorgeous down the jungle trail. If you need to get out to touch grass, highly suggest this spot!

Such a fun time last night at Camp Chowenwaw!…read more We stayed in one of the treehouses, number 5 to be specific. There was so much wildlife to be heard throughout the night including owls, woodpeckers, and what we think were crickets or maybe lubbers. The bathrooms and shower areas were very clean for a park/camping area. There are different trails to explore along the path to the treehouses, which we didn't have a chance to do. We suggest bringing a sheet or blanket to cover your mattresses. Each treehouse has 2 twin sized bunk beds (total of 4 mattresses). They are VERY uncomfortable, so if you need extra support, you should probably bring a mattress topper/padding. The grills were pretty clean, just need some dusting off before cooking, though, nothing out of the ordinary. Upkeep for everything was great!

We have been meaning to get into kayaking for a few years now but finally bit the bullet on a new…read moretandem kayak. How lucky we are to have a kayak launch this close to our house. Nocatee Kayak Launch is located directly across the intracoastal from Palm Valley Outdoors. There is plenty of room for parking and a launch that is accessible in all tides. This kayak Launch is open to everyone. There were a few people posted up around the launch area fishing. Everyone was very friendly. The launch itself is technically in a no wake zone although some boats don't adhere to this so make sure you brace yourself for the occasional big wake. On our trip we saw many birds and turtles. Others we know have seen dolphins in the area. You will see lots of houses on the water (especially if you go north) but there are still plenty of interesting side channels and wildlife if you stick to the edge of the water. If you are in the area and want to get on the water this is the place for you!

While the staff can't control the weather, it seemed as though they could've done more so that the animals would be more comfortable in the heat! The day ended up being miserably uncomfortable for us, as well as the animals. Some were impatiently pacing in their cages. Some were just lying around in the dirt. Two were recovering from surgeries. All of the animals looked well cared for and some were enjoying some snacks while we were there. Our "walking tour" included a walk around the facility to each animal's habitat and the guide discussing multiple facts about the animals lives and journey to the Reserve. Start to finish, it took about an hour and included a bottled water. I'd recommend strollers for your kids. It's an unsafe place to allow young children to wander around. The "public" restroom is a port-o-let outside the gated entrance to the reserve. It was just as clean as the ones at a football game/concert! There is no gift shop but they do ask for donations and give you a t-shirt in return. In movie terms, the reserve is the equivalent of a low-budget film. It's saving grace is the effort to keep these animals alive, but as they all grow, I feel like this "low-budget film will not be able to keep up with the demand! Too few employees for so many demanding large animals.

It runs next to the old Cecil Field military base. I was told back in the day this property used to be a private hunting camp back in the 50's through the 70's. We've walked pretty much each trail on the property and love each one. We usually take our time and spend around 2 or so hours hiking. Today we just kept it short due to my foot was still hurting from when I hurt it a few months ago. I definitely recommend this hiking trail!
