Edward Ball Wakulla Springs State Park

465 Wakulla Park Dr
Crawfordville FL 32327
(850) 561-7276

The invigorating 70 degree waters are sure to refresh you on even the hottest summer days. The historic lodge is an elegant remnant of old Florida, and the ancient cypress swamps made the perfect backdrop for old Hollywood movies.
Wakulla Springs is a place where history stretches back thousands of years, from early Native Americans who lived in shoreline villages to filmmakers who recognized the primeval quality of the park’s swamps and wildlife when they decided to film Tarzan’s Secret Treasure (1941) and Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) here.
Today, visitors can swim where mastodons once roamed and take guided boat tours where dugout canoes once glided across the cool waters. Alligators, manatees and an abundance of bird life can all be seen.
Visitors can also marvel at a 1930s Spanish style lodge with its period furniture, original elevators and colorful painted ceilings that depict wildlife and Old Florida scenes.

Meet one of Tallahassee’s best-kept secrets. 🌳

Tucked into a quiet corner of Tallahassee, this fairytale cottage was built by FSU English professor Laura Jepsen and named after the gates of medieval England. The gardens are the real magic, with a labyrinth to explore and a towering live oak said to date back to the time of Shakespeare.

Bring a camera, take your time and let the afternoon slow down. The grounds are open daily from dawn to dusk. 🍂

📍 Lichgate on High Road, 1401 High Road
