    The Pacetti Hotel and Museum opened to the public in November 2024. I'm so glad I overheard someone…read moretalking about the museum when I was visiting the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse. It is across the street from the lighthouse but be on the lookout because you may miss it as you can't see the house from the street. You can walk over from the lighthouse or drive as there is a parking lot. You enter the museum from the front of the house by the water. Stepping up on the porch and looking out over the water helps to better understand why the house was built in this location as it is a gorgeous waterfront property! Be sure to start by watching the video as it will give you some background before you take the self-guided tour. You could spend hours inside reading and checking out all the different rooms. One of the things that stood out to me the most were the gorgeous wood floors;) And something that struck me as odd were the two sets of staircases. The museum volunteer explained that the front part was the original house and the back was an addition for the hotel. They were originally two separate buildings but were combined to one. The two rooms upstairs in the front would have been the best rooms to rent as they had the most gorgeous views. The hotel was a fishing resort at one time and later hosted the Cincinnati Reds as the last owner also owned the team. If these walls could talk lol! I highly recommend checking out this museum as it is also one of the oldest structures in Florida. So much history! Your entry fee to the Ponce Inlet Lighthouse also includes entry to the museum.

    Did a neat personal field trip here after a day at the beach. I never knew it was tucked away back…read morethere and they even have different sea animal sanctuary shelters next door. I will definitely be back to check it out. The lighthouse is a must see when coming to FL being the 2nd highest in the Country. How am I local and just finding all these things out? Such a cool way to teach us some history and the hotel museum is more cool! Just don't tell your lil one(s) there's a ghost like I did or they will be extra spooked out.. it's all fun and games until spooky things start happening inside! Haha

    This is a truly wonderful place with beautiful decor. It has come such a long way! I absolutely…read morelove coming here to enjoy the peace and nature. Plus, Andrew who works there is always respectful and so helpful with loading me in and out safely.

    I've paddled the Emerald Cut a few times now. Initially I didn't like the idea of paying to launch…read moremy own paddleboard. However, it's only $10 now that I have my own life jacket (saving me additional cost of $5 to use one of theirs, as required). Well worth the low cost for some soul-enriching, communing with nature. I have never made a reservation. I normally arrive around 10:30, most recently on a Friday. Parked for free on Baptist Camp Rd. Just a bit of a walk from there with my inflated paddleboard, but I don't mind the extra exercise. You can unload your stuff closer, if preferable. There are port-a-potties available. You can count on there being a line in the check-in office. Various recreation supplies are available there for purchase. The process moves reasonably enough. A reservation will guarantee your entrance, however, and possibly aide quicker personal info collection. I always plan to do the Emerald Cut in roughly 3 hours round-trip, allowing myself several stops to enjoy the surroundings. You do run into (quite literally at times) novice paddlers along the way, which can be a bit tricky, yet not a real nuisance for me. In general, there's friendliness along the waterway. Slighty rowdy, party vibes in some spots, but also opportunities for solace and zen in various nooks. Encountering wildlife, fragrant elderberry, and other captivating flora along this stretch is always gratifying. It's a popular recreation destination for good reason.

    To say this company's customer service is lacking is the biggest understatement ever. My aunt and…read moreuncle were looking forward to attending Daytona and booked this campground way in advance. However, we suffered a huge loss in our family and my aunt and uncle had to cancel their trip. Again, they booked the campground during daytona and this place is nearby. I'm 100% sure they were able to rebook it, no problem. However, the manager, Andrew, treated my uncle horribly and had zero empathy for the situation. He simply said he didn't care what their circumstances were and refused to provide any type of refund (even partial). That means they got double for this camp site and profited off a family's grief. Absolutely despicable and I cannot say enough that I hope no one chooses to give this place their money.

    We stayed here during Biketoberfest. The park was pretty full. Our site was tight but we got in…read more The park is older and has some huge trees. They had a pet park which was nice. The sites are all grass, and ours had ants which came inside and were not appreciated. There were lots of permanent residents here and they don't help the look of the place. This park has some cabin type buildings and some tent camping area for folks that like that style of camping. It is pretty conveniently located to all kinds of grocery stores, restaurants, etc. The staff we dealt with when making our reservations were very nice and helpful. Check in at the park was no problem, but we wished they had guided us to our site, getting there was quite confusing.
