This pretty boy is wandering around Weeki Wachee Springs State Park. Absolutely vibrant colors- he was chillin' in the shade cuz it was hot as blazes that day! He is an Indian Peafowl although we call them Peacocks here. They are native to India and Sri Lanka but have been introduced all over the world for us to enjoy.

We are saddened to learn about the passing of Bonnie Georgiadis. Bonnie's contribution to Weeki Wachee Springs spanned 37 years. 20 of those years as a mermaid, trainer, show producer and choreographer, and the remainder of her time in wildlife managing the bird department. In 2012, Bonnie was inducted into the Weeki Wachee Hall of Fame. Our deepest condolences go out to Bonnie's family and friends.

"Best spring ever!!" - We agree, Gabriela! Thank you so much for sharing. For those that have their own photo and story to share, please do at the link in our bio.

Bird is the word on #wildlifewednesday 🦅 Our eaglet has flown the coop!

As some of you know our team records data on a pair of eagles for audubonsociety audubon_fl auduboncbop amazing program #eaglwatch

Our beloved eagles have successfully fledged one eaglet and have left us for the summer (about a month ago) hopefully to return this fall and we can do it all over again 🦅

If you’ve paddled with us especially this past nesting season you’ve probably paddled past their nest! This gives us the opportunity to check out their nest with our drone since they have left for the season. It’s critical that nests stay undisturbed from October-May or the eagles behavior may change. Eagles also return to the same nest each year so the structure must remain undisturbed.

The May-Stringer House, CIRCA 1856-1880, is a 4 story, seven gable, gingerbread trim, 14 room “Painted Lady” Victorian era home overlooking the City of Brooksville.

In 1855, John L. May purchased the property and built a 4 room home for his family. John lived in the simple four-room house with his wife, Marena, and their daughters, Matilda and Annie, until tuberculosis took his life three years later.

Marena remained in the home throughout the Civil War and eventually married Confederate hero Frank Saxon. She died giving birth to the couple’s child, a girl named Jessie Mae, in 1869. Jessie survived her birth but died of unknown causes three years later. Marena and Jessie were buried on the property, as were John May and the infant son of Frank and Marena, a detail which fuels many rumors about the May-Stringer haunting.After Marena died, Frank Saxon sold the home, and the property eventually made its way to Dr. Sheldon Stringer. The doctor added ten rooms to the house which he shared with his wife and three children.

The estate also served as the doctor’s practice, and, some say, a sanatorium catering to victims of smallpox and yellow fever. After the death of the Stringers, the house passed from one owner to another until The Hernando Historical Museum Association acquired the mansion in 1980 and began extensive restoration work. Today, the May-Stringer House is a museum listed on the National Register of Historic

The wind was there, but not powerful. It leant a nice breeze to cool the brow, but drinking water was very important to enjoying the experience. The Weekiwachee Preserve is not a place where you can stop and fill up your water bottle or buy a soda. This is a place where you are isolated from society and can enjoy immersion in nature. Planning is imperative to an enjoyable hike.

At one point, there was a wonderful picnic table with a roof. It was a welcome respite to have some shade for a break. There were several geocaches in the rafters of the table, which added to the fun.

Great blue herons, a wood stork, several seagulls, and some egrets that graced us with glimpses of themselves along the hike.

And a hill to climb. It was quite steep, but not too long, so the climb to get a birds-eye view was worth it. To see the many deep blue lakes with the khaki wiregrass fields and white trails around us. Several palmetto trees and a hardwood or two grew atop the little hill. Their trunks had been burned and showed the signs of surviving a controlled burn in a managed preserve.

Had to work for them today but pulled it together 🤙🎣

Yesterday there was a fun little bunny scavenger hunt at the may_stringer_museum. Jude got to look for little stuffed bunnies in certain rooms of the 1856 Painted Lady.
We’ve toured that house countless times, but it never gets old. We still marvel over its beauty with each visit. ❤️

We recommend choosing one of our NatureCoaster partner blueberry farms. Prices on the farm are much better than the stores, and they are priced per pound or bucket – not pint!

Some of these farms also offer u-pick strawberries and blackberries, which can overlap the blueberry season – or not. Ask the farmer.

Each location is unique and offers its own experience.

Bette’s Blues Blueberry Farm – Citrus Springs
Cavallo Farm & Market – Lecanto
Green Acres You Pick Blueberry Farm – Spring Hill
JG Ranch – Brooksville
Starkey Farms – New Port Richey
Upicktopia – Masaryktown

What's your favorite obstacle on the course? If you ever have a hard time with our more wobbly rope obstacles, we always recommend using the white ropes to help stabilize your body! In this photo, we can see our guide Justice using the rope to lean on as he puts his weight in the metal ring. If you ever need help getting across an obstacle, you can always shout GUIDE GUIDE GUIDE and we're here to share tips, tell jokes, and help in any way!

This time of year is always weird and difficult and raw and kinda ugly. I’m always taken back to this week, that year, and how sickening and dreadful it felt to be living that fresh loss and knowing it would never be over.
Despite all of it and the heaviness of the day, we made sure to get out last night and spend the extra daylight around our little town. There is still joy to be found out there outside of grief. We’ve faced more than I ever thought I could survive, but God has also blessed us with a lot. March is when it’s hard to see past the hurt and easy to fall into the dark, but I’m so grateful there’s so much good to cling to.

Meet the Artist! Back for the second time is Julia Monteiro! She created the ferret mural currently hanging on the Lowman building in downtown Brooksville. We are so excited to unveil her newest mural at the Florida Mermaid Trail Festival on February 12!⁠
⁠
“My name is Julia Anne Monteiro - JAM ART and I’m on this planet to create an art world for people to escape, to remind them they are not alone, they are loved, and the world can be a beautiful place. Growing up in an artistically inclined family in Jersey fueled most of the inspiration to found my art business Consciousness Art Collaboration LLC and follow my lifelong dream of being a full time artist and traveling to music festivals and art shows all over the country! Each and every one of you are important pieces in my art universe, and I’d be eternally grateful for you to join me on my journey. Thanks for jammin’ with me!”⁠

Our adventure courses must be completed in order, starting with green and ending with black. Even though each course has its own path, many of them are built onto the same tree! So while you’re ziplining, another guest above you might be working their way across a bridge. Makes it easy to cheer on the people around you, or get a sneak-peek of the next course ;) #flgxfl #adventure #exploreflorida #adventurecourse #zipline #treetopadventure

A beautiful evening at a beautiful place in Florida: Bayport, in Weeki Wachee. The Gulf of Mexico often offers some of the most unique sunsets and I’m very thankful I was able to witness one of them right before I headed back home. I decided to play with the shutter speed and make this a long exposure shot to blur some of the people walking on the pier since it was pretty crowded and also to smooth out the water, hopefully next time I go back to take photos the water will be good and will give me some amazing mirror reflection 🤩

Most people who have traveled Lake Lindsey Road east of US 41 notice half of a dinosaur, life-sized, on the north side of the road. Often when I ask people if they know where Lake Lindsey is they look confused and respond, “maybe…” I ask them if they remember the dinosaur and suddenly their eyes light up.

“I’ve seen that.” “Weirdest thing ever.” “What happened?” “Why doesn’t someone finish it?” are common responses.

Locals tell the story of August Herwede and the infamous half-Brontosaur that my oldest son calls “Headley.” August was a man with a mission who created his art for enjoyment.

Posted withregram • cassielikestotravel If you find yourself near Spring Hill, Florida, take a ten minute drive west and check out the Weeki Wachee River! It's a 12 mile freshwater river that ends at the Gulf coast and can be a great spot to see manatees! I was lucky enough to have a family of manatees swim beside me and under my kayak went I went and it was amazing. The river is open to kayaks, canoes, paddle boards, you name it! Just keep an eye out for gators 😉

The Weekiwachee Preserve is an 11,206-acre preserve owned and managed by SWFWMD. It is part of the conservation lands that extend to Crystal River (with the Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area to the north).

This quiet preserve protects the coastal plain from flooding and provides wildlife habitat for black bears, numerous birds, and other protected species. It is bordered by the Weeki Wachee River to the north, Shoal Line Boulevard to the west, US 19 to the east, and Osowaw Boulevard to the south, with its entrance at 2345 Osowaw Blvd in Spring Hill.

The Weekiwachee Preserve has several manmade lakes, hiking and biking trails, and wide open sandhill plains. Image by Theresa Weglarz, Friends of the Weekiwachee Preserve Facebook page.
There are 5.5 miles of hiking and bike trails, some paved and some not. There are several manmade lakes, leftovers from limerock mining of years gone past, but swimming is prohibited. Fishing is welcome and non-motorized boats are welcome on the lakes. You can view a video of the preserve here.

There is still enough time to add adventure to your weekend! Visit our website to book your next adventure today.🌴 😎

What began as underwater ballet, drinking sodas underwater, and diving to the depths of the spring to entertain American tourists in the 1940s and 50s was upgraded by the movie makers.

In the heyday, as many as eight shows were performed daily in the underwater theatre, with women from around the world coming to Weeki Wachee to audition for the coveted position of mermaid.

Movies were filmed in the Spring. Celebrities, including Elvis Presley, Don Knotts, Esther Williams, and Arthur Godfrey visited Weeki Wachee. In fact, more than half a million people came to watch a mermaid performance annually during this period.

The Weeki Wachee spring is approximately 100-feet wide with limestone sides. In the underwater theatre, the mermaid performers battle a 5-mph current, while acting out stories with apparent ease. It takes a lot of swimming skill and some real moxie. You can read about what it takes to be a Weeki Wachee mermaid here.

There is also a saying among those who have attained the privilege of being a Weeki Wachee mermaid. “Once a mermaid, always a mermaid.” Thusly in 1997, former mermaids were invited back to the park to perform for crowds.

https://www.naturecoaster.com/weeki-wachee/

The name, Weeki Wachee, comes from the Seminole Indian words meaning “little spring” or “winding river.” However, the Weeki Wachee spring where the iconic mermaids swim is so deep that the bottom has never been found.

Cheyenne became a Weeki Wachee mermaid
The Weeki Wachee spring where the mermaids perform leads to the deepest known freshwater cave system in the United States! Image by John Athanason courtesy of Weeki Wachee Springs State Park.
This is a first magnitude Florida spring, with more than 117 million gallons of crystal clear 74-degree water rushing out of underground caverns. It is also the beginning of twelve miles of magic called the Weeki Wachee River that visitors from around the world flock to for a unique kayak, SUP, or canoe paddle to the Gulf of Mexico.

In fact, the Weeki Wachee River paddle experience has become so popular that the Southwest Water Management District (SWFWMD) has created an educational program to help the river’s users protect this valuable natural resource. You can find out more here.

When Maria and her family visited the park today to have some fun in the sun at Buccaneer Bay, enjoying the cool waters of the spring wasn’t in her plan. However, with the kind support of donors, and the Friends of Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, she was able to utilize the newly acquired floating wheelchair with the assistance of two of the park’s lifeguards. We hope Maria and her family enjoyed their visit. #weekiwachee

✨BROOKSVILLE RECAP✨

I still have a lot of Brooksville content to share with you all, but I thought I'd make a list of all the places I went to for those needing a mini guide.

There's plenty to do in Brooksville, and though I would have loved to go to all the places in Brooksville, I wasn't able to. However, I will definitely be visiting Brooksville again at some point. For now, here are the places I got to see! Also, most of these are reels on my feed, so check those out as well.

✨ Coney Island Drive-Inn. Eat where Elvis ate! This place is cash only and super cheap!

✨Mountaineers Coffee. This super cute spot has good coffee and a cute market.

✨ The Hernando County Courthouse. This is such a beautiful building to look at! It's close by to Mountaineers Coffee too!

✨ Brooksville Common. Across from Mountaineers coffee is a park with the Ten Commandments tablets, the tree of life and a prayer corner. Right next to it is also the Civil War Mural.

✨ Boyett’s Grove and Citrus Attraction. By far my favorite place in Brooksville. This gift shop has an ice cream parlor, a dinosaur cave, mini golf, an aquarium and a zoo. You could literally spend hours there!

That's all for now! Make sure to check out the rest of the reels I'll be posting in the next few days!

Things to Know Before Visiting the Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area
The main entrance to the Chassahowitzka WMA is located on Highway 19. Go past West Miss Maggie Drive & Highway 98 intersection going south.
There are toilets at the main entrance and on the south side at Eagles Nest Sink parking area.
Pay is envelope honor box. $3 per person.
Annual recreational licenses for this WMA (and a handful of others) are available from the FWC website. You can add it during your purchase of your annual fishing/hunting license.
Check the bulletin board for scheduled prescribed burns and hunts. Also, take a photo of the map to use during your outing.
Driving is restricted to named roads and ATVs are not allowed.
Best time for wildlife spotting is sunrise and sunset.
We stayed on the north side of Rattlesnake Camp Road for our adventure. Our drive was approximately 8-miles and took about 2 hours, including our hike.
If you plan on hiking, bring mosquito repellent and keep covered. There are deer, which can mean ticks. Be prepared.
Bring water to keep hydrated, and if you bring food, keep it stowed and secured, and dispose of leftovers in the bear-safe bins at the ranger station.

Patches of white sugar sand, scrub oaks, and pine remind me of where I grew up in north-central Florida.

I’m filming the journey when the jeep swerves to miss the rattlesnake coiled up in the road.

Of course, I’m too busy snatching my outstretched arms back in the car to capture that moment on film. This sand-hill terrain is home to gopher tortoises, feral hogs and rattlesnakes, and wild turkeys.

We arrive at a corral of fences around a tiny picnic area. There’s no toilet, but there’s a map. I take a photo in hopes it will point the way out. It doesn’t. At either end of the corrals are signs for hiking trails: 1.5-mile Cypress Circle Trail and the 0.75-mile Wild Turkey Trace Trail. We pass on these hikes. Maybe next time we’ll return- with mosquito repellant.

We drive through the Indigo Lane trailhead area onto North Road. There are side roads marked with handicap hunter signs. The WMA is a popular hunting ground for wild hogs, deer, and wild turkeys.

A head bobs up and down in the wiregrass alongside the road before a turkey emerges onto the gravel, then another and another. We slow down to a crawl, counting at least seven wild turkeys. We stop to watch as they cross the road and disappear back into the grasses. unperturbed by the jeep.

https://www.naturecoaster.com/jeeping-in-the-chassahowitzka-wma/

In the middle of the woods, we see a big sign: “Attention: SCUBA divers. SCUBA diving registration is required to dive on Chassahowitzka WMA.”

Wait- what? There are pine trees and palmettoes all around us. Where on earth would someone SCUBA dive?

“I smell fresh water!” My son says with glee and points to the trail beside the sign.

“We must be near the river,” I haphazard a guess.

We park up by the sign and walk around a barricade to a much narrower road. This hard-packed trail cuts straight through the forest. It was one of the former logging trails created when the Tidewater Cypress logging company harvested the wetlands of Tidewater Red Cypress, a variety of bald cypress with a darker, red hue.

As we walk, the landscape changes. I wonder what we would do if we came upon a bear. (Moms think of these things). The Chassahowitzka WMA is known to have one of the sparser black bear populations in Florida, only 20, so chances of us spotting one in over 31,000 acres is slim.

The air cools as the trees become dense. There’s standing water on either side of the trail. We’re in the middle of the Chassahowitzka Swamp.

You will want to

bring sunscreen, headgear, and sunglasses
bring plenty of water to stay hydrated (preferably in nondisposable containers)
bring a lifejacket
carry your camera. It is a beautiful route with plenty of candy for the eyes.

This paddling trail leaves one of two ways – along a bayou adjacent to the Bayport Park that ends at the Gulf of Mexico or from a watercraft launch in Linda Pedersen Park, under a bridge and through a tunnel to the Gulf of Mexico.

I was unable to make the entire journey either way, but I am a novice paddler – AND – the second time I tried, it was against the tide. Check the tide charts to make your journey more pleasant.

Either way, you start in brackish water and move into saltwater with its large birds, fish, and sometimes alligators along the flats. These alligators are usually sunning or sleeping when one paddles by, but it is always exciting to get a glimpse of an apex predator during a serene paddle.

samantha_gardnerllc I think this could be the part I’m looking forward to the most next week! Floating the Weeki Wachee Spring!

I'm hoping there will be some manatee hanging out with us! 😍

We encountered a great blue heron, several seagulls, enjoyed views of pelicans soaring and diving and ducks floating by during our paddling adventure on the Coastal Paddling Trail.

As we eased from the bayou to the Gulf, the expanse of open water was breathtaking.

Signs along the way eased my fear of ending up “somewhere in the Gulf,” and provided continuity to our adventure. We chose not to take the Redfish Bayou leg, as this was my second kayaking experience, and the wind and weather were a bit brisk for a novice paddler.

Find Historic Bayport Park by driving west on State Road 50 straight past the Bayport Inn, until it ends (at the park). Bayport Park is a 7-acre venue with picnic tables, pavilions, grills, and bathrooms for visitors. This is not the park with the beach that you reach by turning south at the Bayport Inn – that one is called Alfred McKeethan Pine Island Park.

The park is open 24/7 and there is a $5 parking fee, but no charge to use the boat ramp. You need to bring your own kayak or call for a rental ahead of time from the local kayak rental companies. When you rent a kayak, you can travel one way and get picked up with your kayak at the other end of the trail. The approximate cost ranges from $30 – $40.

You can also access the Coastal Paddling Trail by starting at the boat ramp at Linda Pedersen Park@Jenkins Creek, at 6300 Shoal Line Blvd and follow the trail’s signs from 11 to 1.

Kayaking, paddleboarding, and canoeing offer peaceful interaction with nature on the water, providing healthy exercise without getting too wet. Florida’s Adventure Coast opened the Coastal Paddling Trail in 2017, providing a new way to enjoy Hernando County’s western shoreline and the Gulf of Mexico.

The Coastal Paddling Trail takes watersports enthusiasts and casual paddlers from Bayport Park to Linda Pedersen Park giving residents and visitors the opportunity to enjoy what makes Florida’s Nature Coast such a special place without the crowded conditions of the Weeki Wachee river.

On March 16, 2017, the 4 ½-mile mapped coastal paddling trail was officially opened at Bayport Park. A collaborative project involving Parks and Recreation, DPW, Waterways, and Tourism; the trail offers a 1.7-mile one-way trip, with an optional side route down Redfish Bayou (adding another 1.5 miles to the route).

Thanks for visiting 🧜🏻‍♀️ Posted withregram • charliefandre It’s not everyday that you get to meet a mermaid in person, but today was that day! We took a trip out to Weeki Watchee Springs for a visit to swim and watch mermaids play in the crystal clear waters. It was definitely a great day! This is a hidden gem that can be found just north of Tampa, Florida.

🧜🏻‍♀️ Happy #MermaidMonday with Catherine! If you plan to visit the park, showtimes are 10 AM, 12 PM, 1:30 PM, and 3 PM. The mermaids perform daily.

"A trip down the Weeki Wachee was the perfect way to ease back into post-vacation life. A little apprehensive about a 2-year-old’s enjoyment of a 5.5-mile kayak trip, we knew Maverick loved it when afterward he said, “Mommy, should we go see the manatees again? And eat more snacks?” Lover of animals, water, and snacks, a boy after my own heart. ❤️"

Posted withregram • fl.stateparks Take a step back in time and experience a quintessential piece of Old Florida at Weeki Wachee Springs State Park! 💧 #SpringsSaturday

Named by the Seminole Indians, Weeki Wachee means “little spring” or “winding river,” as portrayed by this aerial shot. One of the park’s most recognizable features is its classic mermaid show, which has been running for over six decades. This park is also home to one of the deepest freshwater cave systems in the country, so deep that the bottom has never been found.

Visitors can enjoy the 72 degree waters year-round, making it the perfect spot to beat the Florida heat!

It is incredible how a mother’s love for her child grows even without having met her child.

Maternity sessions are a way to embrace your identity as a mother and celebrate this chapter of your life with loved ones.

Congratulations to Leeann and her family🤍

Posted withregram • irinabilka Planning to visit Florida?! You don’t want to miss this natural spring state park.

Cant believe I’ve been living in Florida for over 20 years and never been to this place. Another reason why I love living In Florida is because there is just so much to explore. Weeki Wachee has so much to offer. Sand area to chill, large spring area to swim, water slides for kids, rental of water tubes for the lazy river, rental of kayaks or paddle boards, and don’t most amazing was the mermaid show. Holy moly that was amazing..definitely would highly recommend.

Tips for this park:
Arrive an hour early of opening if you want to get a good spot on the beach area with chairs...or else you will have no where to sit or relax and to get the wrist bands for the tube rentals. You can bring your own cooler with drinks and food. The mermaid show goes on 4 times during the day but get their 30 min prior to get close seating for best experience because the mermaid swim right to you. You have to make a reservation prior to rent a kayak or paddleboard or else they will be sold out.

Posted withregram • loftfivenineteenphotography_ Still obsessing over this magical session ✨

I have been told by so many people lately I need to buckle down, be very specific on what I shoot and post. To choose one category and share that on socials only. While I do LOVE all things motherhood, and that’s what I am mostly doing and feeling right now, I’m an artist and shoot all kinds of things. I feel like if I LOVE it I’m going to share it. This is prob not a great business strategy I’m sure lol but I hate rules, and I do what I want 😝

Defelice admits that when he bought his farm, “I couldn’t grow weeds in my yard, so I picked a lot of brains and talked to people.” One of them was Director Stacy Strickland of the University of Florida, Institute of Agricultural Sciences Extension; another was Director Mike Walker of the Brooksville Parks and Recreation Department, who invited Defelice to take part in the Brooksville Farmers Market.

He also made a vital volunteer contact in 2018 named Angela Okrasinski, who has worked shoulder-to-shoulder with Defelice on bringing their shared vision to fruition: Bringing local fresh food producers and consumers together so that area residents could eat better and farmers could develop more markets for their goods.

Okrasinski owns a local farm that includes fruit trees and chickens. At the time she met Defelice three years ago she was involved in Hernando’s Farmers Market, where she served as the volunteer vendor manager. In that capacity she had meetings with local groups that aimed to expand the customer base and network growers with area restaurants.

I love my new coasters made from the old floor boards of the may_stringer_museum This wood is over 100 years old! Although it’s a small detail, my home will be full of local history honoring the 96 years that my house has been standing. If you’re interested in buying some, you can get them at the gift shop at the museum!

We came across this great antique shop that has some really beautiful things, but also sells used records (they first play to ensure aren’t scratched). This place is a must see!

It was just 4 years ago when I auditioned to be a #weekiwachee #mermaid 🧜🏼‍♀️💦🐠🌞Such a thrill to swim in that natural spring theater. There’s nothing like it.

Weeki Wachee is the perfect day trip 🛶

We rented kayaks from thekayakshack which is a few miles from Weeki Wachee Springs State Park!

Things to know:
▪️it cost $40 for a tandem kayak
▪️it was a little difficult paddling against the current on the way out but going back was so easy
▪️the water was super clear!
▪️we didn’t see any manatees (you might have more luck at the state park but I’ve never been!)
▪️it was residential when we first started kayaking and then it was all nature after that 🌳

I definitely recommend taking the drive up there if you haven’t been before! *also wanted to add that you can bring your dog if you rent from The Kayak Shack* #whenintampa

After a full day of adventure and fun, you'll definitely want something to remember your trip by!

Don't worry, we have just what you need and then some!

Hello spring wedding season! It’s that time of year when we are loving all the soft colors, the fragrant flowers and the beautiful Florida scenery. 💙. 📷 chelseadub11

Word of the trail is spreading, and folks are coming from all around central Florida to explore and find the Mermaids. We’ve had families with three generations all excited to explore the trail and the City.

Many have commented that they discovered a shop they’d never visited or tried out a new restaurant on this trip; many promise to return to explore more and visit the shops again. The trail is incredibly popular and a huge success; we’re thrilled to have partnered with Brooksville Main Street and the Lowman Family Foundation to bring it to life here in Brooksville, “ says Tammy Heon, Manager of Tourism Development at Florida’s Adventure Coast.

Have you made it to the Florida Mermaid Trail in the last year? If not, perhaps the best time to check it out is during the first annual Florida Mermaid Trail Festival on February 20, 2021!

The Florida Mermaid Trail Festival will be held at Hernando Park, 205 E. Fort Dade Ave in Historic Downtown Brooksville to celebrate a year of making Brooksville mermaid memories and is sponsored by The Lowman Foundation, Florida’s Adventure Coast and Brooksville Main Street.

Admission is free and there promises to be plenty of mermaid magic to make it a special day. In fact, should you decide to walk the Florida Mermaid Trail, using the Distrx app, this will be the first day you will be able to hear each mermaid give you a clue as to her whereabouts.

Back to the Hill I went, meeting up with Pat Manfredo, and Kristen, Olivia, and Connor Mackling, as well and Jan Mackling for our family time on the Hill. What a blast!

We explored the Altar Oak and its neighboring giant Live Oak trees. It was pure magic watching the children exploring the grounds, running, climbing, swinging, and posing for a picture or three.

Time for a bit of exploration. A bench overlooks the farm area of Chinsegut, now managed by Florida A & M agricultural college. A large silo and barn are down the hill, and two tall complexes can be seen in the distance – one due west and one northwest. From their locations, I believe they are mines. Still, it is enchanting to watch the sun set over the vista, knowing the Gulf of Mexico is just a few miles due west.

Walking back toward my cottage, I am greeted by a fire prepared for me by my hosts. Next to the fire are two long lighters, enticing me to start the burning now, but I want to wait for dark. As I turn to walk onto my porch, I encounter two white tailed does hopping along the edge of the forest. More magic.

My cottage had a welcoming porch. In fact, each cottage has a front porch with rocking chairs. After unloading my gear, I returned my vehicle to the parking lot. This gave me a chance to walk the area a bit, getting the lay of the land before unpacking.

There is something really special about Chinsegut Hill. It has a magic to it, a peace and tranquility that is balanced by natural energy from the flora and fauna that call it home.

Recently, I was able to visit Chinsegut Retreat and Conference Center for an overnight getaway and this is what I found. I arrived about 4pm and my cottage was waiting. I checked in with the onsite cat. My first glimpse of wildlife.

Because the property’s manager was unable to be there for my check-in, we went over given specific instructions for finding my cottage by phone. Upon arrival, my cottage was ready and waiting for me. I was greeted with a “Thank you for choosing us” card and knew Chinsegut Hill Retreat’s slogan, “Where history meets hospitality,” was sincere.

Just five miles north of downtown Brooksville is a respite on a hill. A place where one can leave their troubles behind without breaking the bank. Chinsegut Hill is mostly known for its magnificent manor house and the history recorded there, but the Chinsegut Hill Retreat and Conference Center’s cottages offer anyone a wonderful getaway.

And cottage may be a misnomer for these four-bedroom, four-bathroom lodges with a common living, kitchenette, and dining area, as well as a front porch.

There are seven cabins, built by the University of South Florida in 1999-2000 to house students of their programs and classes. The twin beds in the bedrooms definitely say, “dorm,” but change is underway. In my recent stay, the twin beds were moved to create a Queen or King bed size. Anyone who stays here may request the adjustment to their accommodations.

We'll be talking more this week about this amazing retreat. You can also read more at the link in our bio!

Who doesn't love "seacows," the potato-shaped sirens of the sea?⁠
⁠
Next time you're out exploring Florida's amazing springs, rivers and waterways, remember:⁠
⁠
💠 Always look out for manatees, especially while boating (a pair of polarized sunglasses can help you see them more easily).⁠
⁠
💠 Be aware of waterways, speed zones, and shallow areas.⁠
Manatees swim an average of three to five miles per hour, making it difficult for them to escape boaters.⁠
⁠
💠 Give manatees space. Even though manatees might seem friendly, petting or harassing them can change their behavior and lead to more health risks. Manatees are listed as a threatened species and are legally protected.⁠
⁠
Check out the link in bio for more ways you can help manatees and where to spot them on #FLAdventureCoast.⁠

The State of Florida is an Equal Opportunity Employer/Affirmative Action Employer and does not tolerate discrimination or violence in the workplace.

On February 29, 2020, twenty-one mermaids “ventured outside the pristine waters of Weeki Wachee to visit Hernando County’s historic city of Brooksville.” according to the Florida Mermaid Trail website.

Each mermaid has been captured in a bronze statue and now lives with its image mounted on buildings located along the Florida Mermaid Trail, along with their name and story explaining why they chose their new residence.

Summer may be 'over' but the weather is still perfect for diving into s Florida beautiful spring. With school back in session, you'll find this lovely park to be even more peaceful during the week. 🌴🌊🌴 The slides are now closed (except on weekends) until September 29, but the springs are open year-round!⁠
