"Great little hike for a family. Short, and trails can get muddy after rain. Beautiful area but you will drive through a neighborhood to arrive, so it can seem like you're going the wrong way, but Google Maps directions are accurate."
"The Arcadia Mill Site in Milton represents the first and largest Early American water-powered industrial complex in Florida. This was a multi-faceted operation with various mills, shops, a mule-drawn railroad, and a sixteen-mile log flume. Hours & Tickets NOTICE: Arcadia's legislative funding was vetoed. As a result, the Arcadia Mill Visitor Center and Arcadia Homestead site operations are limited to Friday and Saturday only, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with the exception of major holidays. Site grounds including the boardwalk and pavilion at Arcadia Mill Archaeological Site are open year-round, from sunrise to sunset. Monday Closed Tuesday Closed WednesdayClosed Thursday Closed Friday 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Saturday 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Sunday Closed"
"A good place to explore. There are some loose and rotted boards on the raised walk path. Also, some screws have worked loose, so be aware. If you go off the raised walk path, the path has lots of roots, pine needles, and sand. Suggest wearing at a minimum tennis shoes."
"It's a very nice walk. The boardwalk needs some maintenance attention and the nature trail is getting a bit overgrown. But with that said, I do plan to visit there again soon. (I did not get to the museum or indoor displays.)"
"I didn't realize this fun cultural and historic site was nearby in the Pensacola/Milton/Pace area. The entry fee is $5 or $6 for adults and $3 for children under 18, I believe, and includes access to the museum and the homestead site. You can visit the walking trails and outdoor areas for free, but for the first visit, I definitely recommend checking out the paid areas. It was fun and interesting to learn about the early history of the settlers in this area! It's definitely worth visiting. Just keep in mind the hours of the museum and visitor center if you plan to visit."
