Reviews
"This place was a cool spot. Saw a lot of cool fish, birds, and gators. Seemed clean and the lawn was well kept. The bathrooms weren't terrible. They were stinky but not as bad as some I have been to. Board walk was nice."
"Beautiful road side park to watch some alligators, it is always relaxing here. Easy to get in and out, traffic is usually light. People are usually nice. Can't miss this place in the Everglades"
"Small boardwalk with an outhouse style bathroom and not much else here. However it is definitely worth the stop. Only place in the area I saw the anhinga swimming under the water! There are rocks under the boardwalk where the fish must hang out so you can actually see them under water swimming! Also alligators and lots of other birds here."
"Rather than twisting my neck trying to peek at the ditch that runs right beside alligator alley trying to see one, more often than not we stop here to rest our bones. Then from the safety of the boardwalk we'll "normally" see an alligator and a cool bird or two. Kids love it so keep an even better eye on them than the alligators... just sayin'"
"Nice little park to rest for a while. Was on my way to Tallahassee from Key west and stopped here for a quick little rest. Has one of those portable style toilet and has accessibility features. It has a small wooden boardwalk where you can some really giant gators in the adjoining river. They also have picnic tables and shade."
