Since my last review was over a decade ago, probably time for an update. I don't come to Ginnie as…read moreoften as other area springs but it's worth a visit now and then--on weekday mornings ideally if you want to freedive, swim, and miss the crowds of the weekend. It's a good camping destination, too. For me, the main draw however is freediving and there's plenty here to see. You cannot and should not by any means enter caves as a freediver--it's forbidden and even for highly-experienced freedivers, dangerous. If we freedivers don't want to wear out our proverbial welcome, yes, we need to behave. Cave-certified SCUBA divers are the only ones to enter caves. I want to address some things which came up between my own observations and what I've read in other reviews here. For one, the food. This isn't a good place to get good food. If you want something nice, get it "in town" in High Springs or bring something to cook if camping. For that matter, bring your snacks and gear because expectedly things are a bit overpriced at the merch store here. If you don't what the place to be loud, busy, and long lines then don't come on weekends and holidays. It's that simple. This is a business and they'll let in as many people as they safely can let in. As far as loud music and uneven enforcement of rules, I think this just comes down to different employees acting their own way. Most summer help is students, they're not going to have the discernment and acumen of a veteran police officer in dealing with people. Most are nice, some are lax, some overzealous. About the bath houses and other facilities. I think things are in pretty good shape--on par with bath houses at campgrounds in the Ocala National Forest, in example. Nothing was horribly dirty any time I was there but folks--this is camping. Remember that. I don't see the need for tram or shuttle, either. Maybe for disabled or infirm folks but most of us can simply walk between springs and should. Overall I feel Ginnie is well-run for what it is, with your normal business caveats like they'll charge what they can get away with in their store which is exactly why you want to buy stuff at Walmart or whatever prior to coming here. It's a great place to camp and unique, beautiful, springs you'll remember your entire lifetime.

You get this mix of ghetto hick thugs speeding through the park flashing whatever bs they think is cool. They are trying to crack down but the park is big and there's always someone has to ruin it for visitors. Great spot on week days. One of the few places you can drink and float down the river and hit some springs. I've had many great times

Finally instead of driving past we did a quick turn and pulled in the parking lot to see what was…read moreup at the firework building. As soon as we got in there I could tell it was gonna be a nice experience. It was a clean place and the shelves were tidy. As you walk around they have a variety of larger boxed fireworks and each one has a scan code in front of it as you scan the code on your camera on your phone or up on the wall and a movie comes on and I'll show you what the fireworks do.Well that sold me so I ended up buying more than I thought. Everybody there was a great help and very friendly. The prices were good and even some were on sale. So I'm looking forward to a BOOM of a night on the 4th 2021!

Listen, if you are buying your fireworks at a tent or even Phantom you are more than likely ripping…read moreyourself off. I've been buying a ton of fireworks from Phantom each year and usually stock up for the 4th of July and New Years by doing the gift card deal and buying when they run the buy 1 get 2 promotion. That still runs me about 1-2 thousand dollars, easily. Forget all of that work and effort and take yourself to Superior Fireworks which is what I am going to do from now on. They run promotions every once in a while and you can browse the selection online and order for in-store pickup, which is what I did, but when I got to the store... I saw things I did not see online and had to pick up some more. Even so, I still saved hundreds of dollars, maybe even more instead of going to Phantom with wayyyyyy less effort. I guess the more people that knows about this place and shops here will keep them in business and folks employed. I did not know this place existed until this year when I saw a post on social media. The one thing I do need to ask the next time I am here is their dud policy. Phantom will allow you to bring back a dud with a receipt and they will give you a replacement. Luckily, all of our fireworks shot off perfectly. Minus the ones where we didn't follow the instructions but nothing was harmed lol.

If this were any other day, I'm sure I'd rate this park higher, but please be aware that this…read morereview is based on my experience from Independence Day. That being said, we went for the holiday celebrations, and well, this was packed more than a can of sardines. We were only there the last hour of the festivities, but it felt like an eternity. Lines, lines everywhere, with lots of disorganization as there were minimal lights and a lot of staff that were directing people to park in places further when there was parking up front. Ugh. Definitely a place to come early for a special day because it's hard to get a decent spot otherwise. The lines, lines everywhere continued everywhere honestly. The food trucks, the finding a good spot, the entering and leaving the park. Sigh. At least the fireworks were pretty. Will have to return on a regular day to see if I can actually enjoy this park rather than just think of all the stress it brought us.

New park discovery of a Tallahasee gem for running and hiking …read more This 255-acre park with 3 1 mile mountain bike trail was named in 1977 after a Leon High coach (1944 to 1946) Thomas Irwin Brown .Tom Brown was also a Babe Ruth League coach for 20 years and a Leon County Commisioner for 14 years. His love of sports was the blueprint for establishing these beautiful and well-kept trails and park. I love to find new places to run and hike while traveling and was surprised at how many baseball, softball fields, and tennis / pickle board courts this park offers. You can hear the peck of woodpeckers on trees and many different types of birds such as cardinals and swallow tailed kite as you hike on their asphalt paths or dirt trails. A nice change from the normal sounds of Houston traffic. Check out this park while in Tally .

There are a few restaurants here, if you get hungry, and a micro-brewry (First Magnitude) just about a five-minute walk away, if you are in mood for some delicious suds. Bring a blanket and have a picnic in the grass. Do some yoga, practice tai chi, or just sit at one of the benches and chat with a friend.

I bought from phantom since the 80's, since they had 2 stores I drove to Ohio, when I lived in PA. My grandfather bought from phantom when I was a child, they sent fireworks by freight back then, when the catalog had a few pages, I love phantom. I will buy from them every year until I die. Thanks phantom for the buy one get one and the bonuses, I truly appreciate it, and you make me and my families 4th so very special each year. God bless America, god bless phantom fireworks, Brian.

I've been here in the past and blew a bunch of money here, haha get it? "Blew"? Because it's a firework store. Well that was a few years ago and ever since I've kicked myself for spending so much money on something that doesn't last very long, but this year I have a little one and what's better than having some stuff to blow up on America's birthday? 4th of July! I was here one day after the buy 1 get 1 for .99 as told by one of the associate, so I asked if there was any other deals. He told me no but that he could see if he could find a coupon. He left and was found walking and talking to some other girl working there and said he couldn't find any more coupons, oh well no biggie. I came across an end-cap that had their "red hot deal" going on and snagged some from there. Checked out and discovered a firework shop across the street. Next day I was on Facebook and Phantom has a page, guess what? They had coupons that were on there and was active. The day previous and up to July 3rd. Ain't that a bad biscuit and boy was my little brother upset for not knowing that and buying what he bought. This place is a drive from Orange Park, but if I do ever decide to come back here I will definitely do my homework because the employee knowledge and customer service skills were subpar.
