At one time, sinkholes served as dumpsters for locals. Cherokee Sink was one of these "free…read moredumpsters" for a long time until a few years ago. People used to chunk beer bottles into the water. Rumor has it that someone torched a stolen car out there, but I wouldn't know anything about that. There was a clean-up effort a few years ago when the sinkhole became part of Wakulla Springs State Park. They built platforms and boardwalks. All seemed improved. Shortly after that, the sinkhole closed down. As one reviewer mentioned, the closure occurred because of a lack of facilities necessary to run a state park. Now, however, the sinkhole has reopened. But things have changed. If you've come here in the past, you may remember being able to drive 70 mph on a tiny, winding path through the woods and then park almost close enough to the sink to drive your vehicle into the water. Not so anymore. Be prepared to walk about a mile. The county shut that road and turned it into a "nature path," though there is really nothing remarkable about the scenario. Also, no alcohol allowed--and there is always a park ranger out looking for someone to fine. The boardwalks and platforms are still there, but there is no longer a spot to jump from the platform. In short, the county cleaned up the sinkhole and baby-proofed it, and now it is a pretty spot for family fun if you are ready to walk a mile through the woods on a thick sand trail to get there. Also, you have to pay to park.

We finally took a walk out here together and it really is lovely. I had never heard of a "sink" outside of my kitchen but apparently these are somewhat common in north Florida. It's like the ground just opened up here ages ago and "sank" and all that remains is a very deep clear freshwater pool. The water did look inviting in a natural way. Facilities here could be enhanced but for a natural setting it is clean and nicely preserved. Worth the modest hike if you are in the area!

Falling Waters State Park initially felt a bit small when we arrived, but as we continued to…read moreexplore, we quickly realized it was much larger than we first assumed. Our first stop, of course, was the sinkholes and waterfall. While the waterfall itself felt a little underwhelming considering it's described as the highest waterfall in the state, the experience was still quite serene. Hearing the water drop, feeling the cool breeze from the running water, and simply pausing to take it all in made the stop worthwhile. We were a bit disappointed to find that parts of the trail system were closed off, which limited some of our planned exploration. That said, we kept walking and were able to find other trails to enjoy. We ended up wandering around for about two hours, though we know we didn't get to see everything the park has to offer. One of my favorite unexpected features was the dedicated bat habitat area, which was both interesting and unique. Overall, it's a peaceful park with more to discover than meets the eye, and a nice place to spend a couple of hours exploring nature.

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..

She provided us with great information and detailed history about the caves, making the tour both informative and engaging. The tour lasted approximately 45 minutes, and Yardi kept it interesting from start to finish. The park also has a food truck for quick bites.

I haven't been here since the hurricane of 2018 and it was good to see the recovery has progressed nicely knowing that these catastrophes aren't easy to come back from, it says a lot of the people in the area that adversity is only a minor setback for most that call this area home. I don't like arriving at any campground after the sunsets especially when I'm unfamiliar with the set-up but I ensured everything I needed was communicated clearly long before arriving, the staff here was very accommodating and did exactly what we agreed to so life was pretty good even though we arrived after 9:00 PM. You'd be hard pressed to find a more beautiful setting, this RV Resort is nestled in a quiet area just outside the town of Carrabelle and directly across from Carrabelle Beach. Anytime you can enjoy a well crafted cocktail at your campsite and can see the gentle waves of the Gulf lap the sand on the mostly secluded beach between sips means you've found a little piece of paradise. The campground is well maintained and all the amenities added to the experience. The sites are clean and spacious even for my forty foot MotorCoach but maneuvering into your spot can be a little challenging. The pads are set ninety degrees to the entrance roads so a watchful eye and a little patience will pay dividends and keep any frustrations at bay. All the neighbors were friendly and helpful and always eager to assist, this is one of the parts of RVing I really love. I was happy to see the electrical, water and sewer hookups were well maintained and the grounds are immaculate. Once the setup is completed the fun can begin and whether it's a serene walk on the beach or a drive into town there are plenty of things to enjoy here, but honestly RVing provides a level of enjoyment that doesn't require a lot of outside interaction, meeting new people and enjoying cocktails with people that share the same interest is always part of the adventure, but sitting in a comfortable chair with the grill going under the shade of the canopy is something that's hard to replicate. It's more about owning all your own time and spending it with people you love to spending that time with. We encountered no issues with the amenities here, the prices are reasonable and I never had to interact with the staff being all the business was conducted online, any trash I put roadside disappeared each morning and it was very quiet and peaceful it's not surprising to me that so many people return here year after year. This area offers a lot of things to do and see but best of all it provides a great atmosphere where doing nothing at all seems to be the most enjoyable times...
