Reviews of Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park
"Lived in Florida most of my life and never visited the Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings estate. What a great place to experience the real Florida. Marjorie was a unique individual, and way ahead of her time. You feel her stories come to life while touring her preserved estate. Step back in time and appreciate the glimpse of Florida’s history."
"We walked in the house through the front door that was supposed to be locked, and surprised the caretaker / docent. She was very gracious and gave us a small tour as we exited out the back door. A wonderful place with lots of charm and old world comfort."
"Great park with a small boat launch, a park, picnic tables, and a pretty nice "track" for walking laps. Great place to see sunset and air boats."
"The historic home of the Pulitzer Prize winning author of 'The Yearling.' Located at Cross Creek (she wrote another book by this title), a rural community in SE Alachua County. Authentic of the 1930s decade with a seasonal garden and small orange Grove remaining, and a nature walk. Dogs on leash allowed on grounds but not inside the house. Family oriented, with tours available Thursday - Sunday. See State Park website for specific details, admission is $3/ vehicle (up to 8 people). Holiday decor from early December until the end of the year. Summer closure of the house around August 8 for 2 months while grounds remain open."
"I thought it was awesome!! We spent about an hour on site listening to the stories of Rawlings and her life and previewing the home. The tree canopy on site is amazing!!"
