Silver Springs State Park

Amazing. Crystal clear water, historic reconstructions, miles of trails, full hookups at most camp sites, close to shopping and dinning, a family could easily spend a week here. Located near Ocala Florida, Silver Springs is a reclaimed amusement park. ALL the attractions and a majority of the animal cages have been removed. All that remains is paved trails, a building or two, and the shopping front at the entrance which contains a State Park Gift shop. Ohhh, the glass bottom boats. Still here and offer 2 tour lengths. We chose the 1 hour tour, which lasted approximately 40 minutes. Worth doing at least once in your life and the Captain/tour  guides do a good job. Campground itself contains historic reconstructions, museums, and many trails.
