    This was an unexpected gem. The drag racing museum was interesting but the classic car display was even better! So many stories about the cars and how Don and his wife found them and what they represent not just to him but the wider car community. Great way to spend 2 or 3 hours on a rainy day in Central Florida.

    Rented a two person kayak. Many choices but we chose the 5 mile down river with a shuttle back to car. Very enjoyable. Easy to let the current take you. Would do again.

    It was a misty cold rainy day! We went by the trails and Santos Bike Shop across from the trail rented us great bikes with helmets and provided us with information on the level of the trails. Due to the wet conditions we took the paved one. Other people went mountain biking and loved it as well! We biked in a shaded trail for 15 miles, it was a great time!

    14 Central Floria Attendants took this tour of 4 working farms. It was a wonderful in depth look at the horse capital of the world. Our guide Karen was extremely knowledgeable. Don’t miss this tour.

    We had a great dinner at one of the restaurants here and then walked around enjoying the holiday lights in the big oak trees and the giant Christmas tree. It was a lovely evening.

    Gypsy Gold Horse Farm is a beautiful property with a quite interesting history. The owner, Dennis, told everyone about the beginnings of the Gypsy Vanner breed including a great historical overview of the gypsy families that he spent time with to learn more about their culture. Dennis is an excellent speaker who kept us engaged with lively and humorous stories of his own personal life in the equine industry including the colorful cast of characters he's met along the way. Afterwords he took us on a guided tour of the farm to meet his menagerie of interesting and beautiful animals. The two hours we spent at Gypsy Gold Horse Farm was an enlightening and thoroughly enjoyable experience.

    Big church with wonderful worship to help get into the spirit. Pastor Tim focuses on serving. He has a great message delivery; lighthearted, funny, serious, direct; all from the Bible, with love. No mention of Bible prophecy though, or of Israel, or that we must pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

    Great place to just drive thru, but the hotel is great to visit if u like dogs and horses. On the weekend there is usually a show-they are free-people bring their dogs-drinks-food-its like a giant tail gate party except they provide tables/chairs and covering.

    Great spot for families. We went on a Wednesday and got there mid morning, there was barely anyone swimming. Lots of picnic tables and places to hang a hammock. We took one do the trails to go see the other spring (about a 10 minute walk). We left around lunch time and by that point there were only a few more families swimming. The water is cold, so be ready to jump in!

    The only down side is the admission price, for 2 adults and a toddler we paid $20. It’s a buck or two cheaper on weekdays.
