Kelly Park - Rock Springs

"This was our first time at Kelly park. It felt like we had entered another planet. The water was so crystal clear. They had areas to have a picnic, swim or just relax. We went during the week and it was extremely quiet as there was not many people there with us. The camping area was also very nice from what we saw. We are definitely planning another trip soon."

"Go on the Off Season and it’s not crowded and it’s lovely, clean and safe. Has a concessions but Needs healthier food options. Shallow water for young kids and a river to tube down. Please be mindful and DONT bring a boom box and play music it’s rude and nature is meant to escape the noises of the city. Also don’t smoke near people, again, it’s nature and we want fresh air."

"This place is just an absolute gem. Whoever complained the water is not "that blue", didn't paddle the Emerald Cut part or went after a storm. Absolutely breathtaking. I went by myself and joined a guided group. It was a very slow pace, paddling upstream and enjoying drifting back with plenty of stops on the way and back to take lots of pictures. Our guide was super friendly and gave fun stories about the area. 100% would come back next time I am in Orlando. They also gave me great tips to visit Kelly Rock spring close by."

"I went back in 2014 and it was a blast. I'm use to springs and this one was excellent. Such a beautifully kept spring and what a way to relax. I'm glad my buddies took me for a visit. I grew up with springs in Florida, like Fanning, Manatee, Hart, and Gornto Springs, and this was just as amazing and the restaurants near here were great after a cool swim."

"I spent my birthday here this year. It was a bit crowded, on a Wednesday, but it was still a pleasant experience. The river was my favorite part, and the most beautiful! It was fun. I image that when the park is less crowded it’s extremely peaceful too. If you’re curious to check out the trails, then I’d recommend visiting on a cooler day, because you’ll get hot, fast! The water was refreshing though. I was also surprised and happy that the park has a vegan/vegetarian option on their food menu. I got the veggie burger with fries. It was decent for park food. Overall Kelly Park is a fun, family spot."
