Top 40 things to do and attractions in Brooksville

Went to the haunted house last night (10/24/25) and had an amazing time! There was a short wait to get in, but they did a great job spacing people out so everyone could really enjoy the experience. The decorations were fantastic and so well thought out, and the scare actors made it unforgettable. Great job to everyone involved!

All volunteer led tours and all run on donations. Such interesting history of the house and Florida itself.

The May-Stringer House is an absolute treasure! 🕯️ From the moment you step inside, you can feel the history — and maybe a little something extra lingering in the air. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and full of fascinating stories that brought the past to life. The attention to detail in each room is incredible; it’s like stepping straight into another era. Whether you’re into local history, vintage architecture, or the paranormal side of things, this place is a must-visit in Brooksville. Can’t wait to go back for another visit! 👻

The May-Stringer House is a wonderful place to bring your family to learn about some history and Brooksville Florida. Admission is $10 for an adult and $5 for children 12 and under. The house is considered a Victorian style, ginger bread home. The outside of the home could be in need of some refurbishment and a touch of paint, but overall the house itself looks to be in fine shape. The interior of the home is very well kept with many items being donated from various people. All of the items are said to be in the correct time period. There are three floors to discover. We were greeted by three staff members all wearing Victorian style outfits. They were all very knowledgeable about the home and were able to answer many questions. Thank you for the wonderful experience. It is a must-do for anyone that is a local in the area.

We did a paranormal investigation and got an apparition in the second story window. In our video it turns around and moves to the left of the window it’s our best capture to date. This home is full of history and is wonderful to explore. Our tour guides were fantastic we definitely would like to do the night tour again maybe with less people. Loved this place and highly recommend checking it out both during the day and at night if you dare!

It was so fun! Was hoping to see a spirit, but not this time. Did get some very weird feelings though. Recommend!

Lot of history, very Nice people there. Beaitiful house

Public washrooms available; plumbing is older Nice art, close to other parks and main sights

Cool slice of history and Americana. It was closed while we were there in June 24 but we checked out the grounds and it is worth the trip for the pictures!

We went on a Thursday, Google showed it was open Thursday - Saturday. Nope only open Friday and Saturday so we didn't get to go inside, maybe next time we're in town. We ventured around the quaint town and saw Murals, Beautiful Homes, and good History if anyone else is interested.

My ladies group from church toured the museum and we had the best time. For such a tiny place, it was incredible the amount of History that we experienced. The volunteer that gave us our tour was incredibly knowledgeable and we learned so much. We were there over 2 hours and still didn't see everything and I could tell that that volunteer could have told us stories for days so I can't wait to return.

Great parking for the Good Neighbor bicycle trail. The Good Neighbor bicycle trail has 911 markers along the way. The Brooksville Train Musuem was closed when we were there. So glad they preserved all of this!

You could visit this place 20 times and each time discover something new. There is so much to see and experience. There is an absolutely beautiful walking trail here as well as a one room school house

Incredible experience at a truly well preserved historical location. I would definitely recommend it.

Tom barn is our favorite local park here in Brooksville. The playground is clean, safe, and fenced in. They have playgrounds for smaller kids all the way up to bigger kids. They have lots of swings and things to spin on. They have slides. They have a jungle gym course. There’s a lot of nice grassy areas to be able to play ball in. They have volleyball courts, basketball courts and baseball. There’s a gorgeous walking trail or jogging trail. Then on the other side of the park, there’s golf frisbee. The grounds are very well maintained. They updated the bathrooms last year and they’re actually very very nice. Just this summer the splash pad opened up and it’s been a hit. If you have kids and you’re in the Brooksville area, I suggest stopping over at tom Varn Park for a great day. There’s also an exercise course for adults if they want to exercise out there. Pull-ups dips situps.

We like this place so much more now. The old wooden playground was nice but it had become unsafe. It is much better now and it is safer for the kids. Plus a lot of the play area is in the shade and there's usually plenty of seating for the adults. Also with the addition of the splash park it is so much better! Great place to take your kids to get their energy out.

Love the park! Has a great playground and relaxing walking trails. I have a 3 year old son that I have been bringing to the new Splash park weekly since it opened. Love it! Except for you thing. My son and a few others in the span of a day kept slipping and smacking there heads on the ground when they walked across this mosaic tile that is Super slippery. I understand it's to represent those who possibly sponsored the project. But I'm asking for it to be removed or something. Please comment if you have had this experience to help prevent any further injury our children. Thank you, Concerned Dad.

Beautiful trails, great swings for me and my little one. Beautiful pond with turtles and gazebos. Next time I go I'll post pictures its very scenic and pretty. Also awesome splash pad. I highly recommend this park it is by far our favorite family friendly parky.

Super nice, walking trails, large pond with fountains and Coi Fish. There are picnic tables. Benches, shade as well as sun. A very nice place for an outing!

Hey world thanks for clicking my pictures had a show at art in the park. With a friend of mine name Keemba on the drums we performed for over 100 people. Walking through out the event space. They had vendors and. People selling art with over a 100 artist

The playground is fantastic. Modern, clean, and full of fun equipment that immediately had my kids excited. We also took a walk on the paved path that winds through the park. It's perfect for a serene stroll under the beautiful shade trees. The whole park is incredibly well-maintained and has such a friendly, welcoming vibe.

This continues to be an awesome spot for hot dogs. Love mine with coleslaw or chilli. They also make a great Reuben dog. Fridays they celebrate ‘fish fry Friday, which is a large fried filet of fish, with fries, for $6.00. Delicious. Very friendly service staff, especially Kristin. Plenty of parking. Seating inside or outside

Coney Island is one place that I have been visiting since I was a young child. We would always go for foot long coney dogs and they tasted amazing! For some reason the last time I visited the food seemed to have changed. The money sauce was dried out....possibly from sitting under the heat lamp. The cheese on my reuben dog was not melted. Just some things that were different. The fries were amazing as always, no change there! They have several options for hot dogs and foot long hot dogs. They have a Gator dog, reuben dog, Coney dog and many others! Their milkshakes are awesome! All in all, this famous restaurant has many signs, license plates and pictures from many decades ago. Its a great walk down memory lane for sure! If you are visiting this area, you should try it out! Highly recommend it!

Coney Island is a Brooksville institution going back decades of providing awesome food, hospitality, and community engagement. Any time we have friends that come up, or family in town, it’s the top of their list. Eating under the gorgeous trees, enjoying a classic piece of Americana offers an experience more than just a hot dog stand. The service with a smile is a point of Southern pride. Shout out to Megan, who helped us out today, and to every person we’ve talked to over the last decade. It’s been here a while, and here’s to many more hopeful years. I can’t imagine our landscape without it.

Enjoyed our lunch today. The hot dogs were delicious and the cheese fries were extremely cheesy, just like I want them. The staff is extremely helpful ans the atmosphere is fun.

Great little old dive! I absolutely love places like this. My only regret is that I didn't spend the extra $1 to upgrade to a Nathan's Famous hot dog. The regular one wasn't bad though, just small.

Coney Island hot dogs: A decent experience, slightly let down by the quality of the buns. The hot dogs themselves were enjoyable, but the buns were a bit stale, detracting from the overall experience. The chili also tasted a bit like it came from a can, which wasn't ideal. Overall, a good hot dog, but could be improved with fresher buns and a higher-quality chili.

This place was amazing!! Lots of memorable throughout the restaurant inside and out. The food was great and really liked the fact that Elvis had eaten here! Staff was very friendly and we will definitely be visiting again.

Been 2-3 years since we were here. Met a friend for lunch on a Wed. Noticed menu changes that did away with some of our go to favorites like the fish dip & chips. I had the shrimp po’boy, DW had the 1-1-1 and friend had the Monte Cristo. All were good, served hot, but nothing special. Saw the spin off BBQ place around the corner. Might have to try that next time we are in town.

The delicious, authentic food served in the small restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Open for breakfast and lunch, it is advisable to come earlier than planned because it always peaks and there is a wait to be seated. Don’t forget that only cash payment is accepted.

This place offers a cool atmosphere. There are all kinds of things to look at hanging around in the old Florida cracker style theme. We got here early on a Saturday so we didn’t have to wait to be seated but it quickly got picked after we arrived. The waitress was super nice and attentive even as they got busy. I got the western omelette which tasted a bit off, I think it may have been the ham in it. The raisin toast was tasty and the coffee was good. My husband had the sausage biscuits and gravy. He enjoyed it. We’ve had breakfast here in the past and it was good so I’m hoping the omelette was just a one off. The portions are big. We’ll definitely come back again.

To my southern friends as well as my Northern friends, you may not be familiar, What a cracker is?Crackers, not to be confused with rednecks, but sometimes are. Cracker refers to the whips carry by cattle men which they used to move cattle around on a farm. Hence crackers, the sound that a whip makes. Now this place hearkens to that Southern Florida charm by harkening to that homage. The restaurant is eclectic. It looks like it's from back in time, old signs, limited accommodations, some AC, some wonderful Florida ambient temperatures. I came for brunch. What did I have with my meal? Grits! that's right, grits AKA precursor to Whiskey. This place serves really good grits, I should know, I love grits! Butter? yeah they have real butter. No joke, not plastic spread AKA margarine. I had one of their breakfast sausage sandwiches made with their homemade bread. It was very good. Yep, the place is worth coming by and experiencing and if your thirst is greater than water, then they have the cantina next door. I am sure they can quench whatever thirst you may be suffering from that day. My thirst was quenched by the Florida tap. You'll probably see me here again. Look out for me. Who knows. I may be sitting next to you:)

Excellent food and service in cozy friendly setting. No frills decor but food options well worth the drive.

Great Home Cooking. Great Atmosphere and Excellent service. Only downside was the Biskets....... They are more like Dinner Rolls and Not what someone would call a ( Southern ) Bisket.

Unfortunately, my experience at this place was bad. I ordered pancakes, and they tasted like soap. There were eggs on the plate that I didn't order. I didn't eat them, returned them to the waitress, and explained her mistake. They charged me for them. My companion's breakfast also tasted awful and was of poor quality. I do not recommend this place in Brooksville, Florida. The prices are expensive for what they offer. There were flies in the restaurant, making it unbearable to eat with them around. The place is super cramped and uncomfortable. They have too many tables, and the waitresses serve you as if they were in a competition. I regret having chosen that place 😪 😕 Super noisy place, not comfortable at all.

Very informative.

I believe this is the world's best corn I love this place and they're fresh vegetables. When on opening day which is always crazy because everybody wants their corn but it is so worth buying a bushel you can freeze this stuff vacuum seal it it is the most delicious corn you've ever had. They have definitely mastered the best corn!

It’s so nice to have local fresh produce, but it’s not only the great corn that keeps me coming back it’s the friendly people. From the gentleman that helped me pick out and bag up some corn with the assistance of a very nice young boy, to the friendly cashier. Two boys asked to help me carry my corn to the car, they were so very polite. While the corn at Frazier Farms is absolutely delicious it is the friendly community feel that keeps me coming back.

A great hometown family farm,where we always get all of the fresh farm goodies. On our last visit our two year old grandson was with us and was asked if he would like to pick an ear from the field? And he was on his way, mission accomplished and smiling from"ear to ear". Big thanks to the staff 😊

Wonderful experience for the kids! And, if you like sausage...try the Frazier Farms corn sausage!!! Delicious!

The best corn ever. Vegetables are great, too. They have jams, salsas, salad dressings, and jar pickles, too. Don't miss out on their variety.

They have a good variety of vegetables and sauces. Prices were very reasonable. Ate 2 ears of corn last night and so delicious.

Frazier corn is delicious. They just closed for the season. They raise bi-color corn, yellow, & white corn.

This park is super Chill. With WiFi and power supply. And bathrooms. Pickle Ball, shade, and fun times. Oh and a library connected for a good book to read while you do you. 2024!!

Came to see the mermaid, played in the park, nice playground, public restrooms, picnic table, tennis courts and a museum that was not opened on our day to visit. very pleasant.

Most well kept park. Pickleball courts, walking trails and Pokémon landmarks. They have a lovely artisan shop across the street.

Very cute park, fenced in, bringing books next time for the boxes and a ball for the tennis court.

This is a star-shaped blue flower, with purple touch on its plates. Star-shape, blue-purple flowers decorate blue-eyed grass in spring and early summer. A wonderful plant for edging a walkway or the front of a cottage garden border, this compact perennial grows in a slowly spreading clump. Although “grass” is in its name, blue-eyed grass is actually in the iris family. Its sturdy leaves remain green and upright throughout the growing season.

Stopped here for a few minutes after taking my wife to the dentist. The park mimicks a town, lots of things for the kids to climb, swings, slides, picnic tables and bathrooms nearby. Nice large tress to provide some shade. Overall, fun little stop.

The first time I've been there and it's a great little park.

I have been golfing here since this place opened and it has gone downhill so bad. My round today was $67 and I will not be going back. The tee boxes on the front 9 are dirt and the greens are garbage. Hole 7 par 3 has a green full of dirt. For the money, go to Rivard 100%. Hernando Oaks is a rip off. There are worse areas on the course than the pictures I posted.

The course layout is great and challenging. Several crowned greens ( which are always fun for double bogeys), Great golf carts - gas, but very quiet with premium seats. Biggest drawback was 4:40 round....

The course was fine. The fairways were very long and soft, letting the ball be mostly covered in grass. Off the rough on every hole was uncut rough that is impossible to find a ball in there, so bring some extras. The staff was great, however the Ranger did nothing about a slow 5-some that wouldn't let my 2-some play through.

Very nice golf course good layout and very challenging from just about any set of Tees. Greens are big and undulated but not fast, would say medium speed but again just a really set up. If they tuck the pins on certain holes this course could be very difficult! Bunkers were a little bit lacking as well as teeing area but still very enjoyable place to play.

The coup in rse is in pretty poor condition, particularly the tee boxes. They were muddy, lacking turf and one even had deep tire tracks. The greens were spotty - missing grass. Great hot dogs though.

Hernando Oaks Club Grill has very pleasant and friendly staff, reasonably priced food & drinks as well as very tasty meals. The "Hole In One" wrap is excellent.

Staff was helpful getting me to my instructor and answered any questions that I had.( first time at this club). Kim Lee is a great instructor 👍

My fiancé and I got a few tattoos this past weekend and was very impressed with Clay! He is definitely a great artist! We live a few hours away but will definitely be back for more work. The shop was very clean, reasonably priced and just a real chill environment.

One of the best shops in central Florida. Plain & simple. All of the artists here are incredible, beautiful people who love what they do & you can see that as soon as you walk. The vibes are amazing, the shop is beautifully decorated with art & always kept super clean. Lenny is the man, Kelly & Emily are incredible & Max welcomes you & makes you feel right at home soon as you come in. Can’t recommend Rusted jade enough & I always look foward to getting tattooed here.

This review is for Lenny, who i highly recommend! From the moment I walked into Rusted Jade, i was impressed. The shop is clean, welcoming, and has a fantastic vibe. Lenny’s artistry is truly exceptional. His lines are incredibly clean and precise, and his color work is vibrant and stunning. The level of detail is simply amazing. I am absolutely thrilled with my tattoo and would recommend Lenny and Rusted Jade to anyone looking for a high-quality tattoo.

Every experience I’ve had with this shop has been phenomenal. Not only is the shop, beautiful with an amazing atmosphere of quality, but the staff, has been by far one of the genuine group of artists I’ve seen in a long time ! I’ve had the pleasure of getting tattoos from the owner Lenny, and their newest addition Rayna, but I’m looking forward to adding more in the near future. You can tell each artist has a unique style and Aesthetic. They definitely take pride in being a part of the local community and culture. It’s not surprising that they host various events to celebrate and expand the whole experience of this cozy environment. Whether you come get a tattoo, buy something unique , or explore a new skill. This place is definitely the place to be and I’m definitely grateful to have had such beautiful tattoos done.

Came in and got this piece with Rayna :))) Absolutely love how comfortable I felt in the studio, all the artists were super nice and respectful; Rayna did an amazing job and I will most definitely be back in a few months to get it mirrored on the other thigh <33

RJAC is a great shop for the community. Half of their shop is an art gallery where they hold different events throughout the year. Some of the events specialize with children as well. They sell merch of local artists which is fabulous. The other half of the shop is tattooing. This portion of the shop is always clean. All of their artists are great;I personally used the owner, Lenny. They are all professional and do great work. Though one thing they don’t seem to have in stock to use on clients is any form of Saniderm. I personally prefer this for my healing tattoos so knowing they don’t often use or carry it, I would bring my own. The only thing I would say about this shop is beware of their cancelation policy. They are transparent in their policy guidelines in every confirmation of appointment automated message they send out. However the policy is if you cancel 24 hours before your appointment, you are automatically charged 50% of your time slot at $150 an hour. I ended up with a lingering cough that wouldn’t allow me to sit through my scheduled 4 hour booked tattoo session/free touch up and tried to change my appointment the morning of to something that would take less time (I only wanted something small and had mention this to my artist a week before my appointment). I stated I would wear a mask and did not want to waste any time or money. The shop ultimately stated that because I was sick, it was best I stayed home and that I would be charged 50% of my appointment of my time booked of 4 hours because I had not reached out to the shop when I initially got sick in the beginning of the week. In total, I was charged $300 for this appointment (that may not have used the full 4 hours and a portion was a free touch up on previous work from the owner) and if I had rescheduled, I would have not had the money to go back to spend more money. They do not bend this policy, as they are a mom and pops shop, who rely on clientele to be committed to appointments and need to make up canceled appointments by having said policy. Life is too unpredictable and sadly a policy like this will defer me from returning to the shop.

I had an amazing experience getting my first tattoo done by Rayna at Rusted Jade Art Collective. She is super kind, patient, and made me feel comfortable during the entire process! The tattoo healed great as well. The shop itself is very clean and has a welcoming environment.

First open air market in several years! Need more people and lower vendor fees at least until the foot traffic picks up

I LOVE BROOKSVILLE MAIN STREET!! Love the concerts, special events, the atmosphere, the family friendly events and more. Natalie & her Team are the Best!!!

Such a great little place to visit. Great shops and restaurants!

Great events like the Brooksville Blueberry Festival! Wonderful entertainers like the Leesburg Blues Brothers! And over 110 vendors in Downtown Brooksville!

EBODS is by far the best empanadas in Citrus county. Don't bother looking elsewhere.

I love seeing everything that’s been going on in Brooksville!

Always pretty there love the old style

Had lunch here while doing the Florida C2C bike trail. My mail was very good and reasonably priced. They had some of the freshest salsa that I have ever tasted. Clean and casual. Very friendly wait staff. Happy hour specials from 3 pm to 6 pm. Enjoy

Really good food. Prices were good and service was good. I liked the rice beans that came with the quesadilla. Good sized portions. Beer and wine only, and Pepsi products. Parking could be a little better, but place is centrally located in downtown Brooksville. Got the chimichanga and steak quesadilla.

We were driving through Brooksville and decided to stop in and try Enchiladas. We were greeted by the friendly waitstaff who invited us to sit where we wanted to. The restaurant was comfortable and we were immediately provided complimentary chips and salsa, both obviously homemade and extremely flavorful. They have an extensive, reasonably priced menu and the wide array of menu choices made it easy for us to find good options. The entrees arrived quickly and were delighted by both the presentation and skilled use of seasoning. We will definitely be back!

I asked for a tostada and was told quote "they have those at Taco Bell" I asked about the difference between a "Taco " & their "Mex Taco" staff informed me that the Mex Taco has meat onions with cilantro/ while the regular Taco has lettuce cheese and tomato. I find it odd the Mex Taco cost more with less ingredients. I ordered queso it had absolutely no peppers or flavor and chunk of unmelted cheese inside (which seems it was old or scraped from the bottom of the barrel.) As far as Mexican restaurants go I would not suggest anyone to go there for authentic Mexican cuisine. Hence I didn't see any Mexican workers or customers 😩🙄props to the one young Man who served me was very pleasant and attentive while the cashier not so much.

This jewel conveniently across from the courthouse brightened my day facing the inevitable. Food was great against all the warning signs of location is everything. Food was way to cheap and restaurant way to busy for these tacos to stand a chance. They food was surprisingly delicious and service was excellent (Presley) well slammed rather handed me a menu explaining speacials and took my Togo order with ease and back of the house cranking food out in neat timely fashion. I will definitely return

Second time in three weeks the food was amazing. They really have their kitchen in order now. Great local Mexican eatery. We brought a friend from Austin Texas tonight and he said it was very good on par with Texas restaurants. I thought that was very high praise. Try it out.

This place was average. Not bad, not great. The building needs a new drop ceiling as all the tiles were drooping and stained. Our waitress was nice when she was there, but we didnt see her much after ordering. We ran out of drinks way too often. The steak in all the dishes was overcooked and chewy, but it did have a good taste. The cheese sauce on the smothered burrito was good. The guac (in the burrito) made leftovers very sour from the lime. The jalapeño wasn't roasted enough and when we asked them to roast it a bit more it came back charred. The shrimp and peppers were pretty good. While it wasn't specifically a bad experience, it wasn't good enough to warrant a return trip as we would likely opt for trying a new place instead of coming back here.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Main Street Eatery in Brooksville is an absolute gem! I stopped in for a meal and was truly blown away. The rice and beans were exceptional — perfectly seasoned, comforting, and clearly made with care. You can really taste the love in the cooking. What made the experience even better was the service. The staff were so friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. It felt like they genuinely cared that I had a good experience. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a delicious meal. I’m so glad I found this place, and I’ll definitely be returning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food and heartfelt service in Brooksville!

Really cute, comfortable, homey, old fashioned, home-town feeling in this place. The lady who brought us menus has lots of personality. She makes you feel like old friends. The only thing that was a little less than expected was that my mandarin orange slices were from a fruit cup purchased at a store. It was served in the plastic cup without the lid. I expected it to be fresh fruit, not packaged. That was the only thing I was a little disappointed about. The rest of it was nice. Cozy, low cost, nice lunch here. Great decorations. Right on the street. Indoor and outdoor seating options.

The Cuban sandwich was perfectly pressed with a crispy crust and juicy layers of ham, pork, and pickles that melted together beautifully. The Cajun bean soup had just the right amount of spice, rich and comforting without being heavy. To finish, the peanut butter pie was creamy, decadent, and had a flaky crust that tied everything together. Every bite felt like comfort food made with care — definitely a place worth returning to.

Main Street Eatery is our go-to lunch spot — we eat here several times a month and it never disappoints! Peggy and her team are just the best. The atmosphere is always welcoming and full of friendly, upbeat energy. Everyone on staff is so sweet, outgoing, and fun — it honestly feels like visiting family. Now let’s talk about the food… everything is so fresh and made with love. My personal favorite? The chicken salad sandwich toasted on wheat and fully loaded with pickles — hands-down the best sandwich I’ve ever had! And don’t even get me started on the desserts… the homemade blueberry cobbler and Key Lime icebox pie are both amazing, but that peanut butter pie? Pure heaven. Just like something grandma would make. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on one of Brooksville’s best-kept secrets. I can’t recommend Main Street Eatery enough — it’s everything a small-town eatery should be and more!

I can't even begin to explain how enjoyable this place is to eat. Everyone who works there has a big smile on there face. I have driven past this place countless time on the way home from work. Today my wife and I decided to give it a try. The parking lot is the only odd thing, just park out back and walk around to the front. Since it faces main street. I got the Cuban and my wife got a chicken salad sandwich then we split a very good piece of peanut butter pie. The food was great and the prices are average. But I think its the general atmosphere here that is most enjoyable. You can serve great food but if you got a scrappy server it ruins everything. I didn't get our servers name but she was really the loudest server there lol. Very good time we will be back 4 sure

The staff here are always so amazing, I never feel like a customer but rather a local neighbor. I travel, over an hour to seek out this restaurant. The soups never disappoint I'm a big soup girl), and best Cubans around! I have never been disappointed!

Nice place to visit for a quick 1 hour to 90 minutes visit. Portions and prices are reasonable. Friendly staff...plenty of open parking in the back and some on the main street.

Super cute place. Got the brown sugar cinnamon syrup! Yum. Also I was able to get oat milk. Love that they have non dairy options. Great decor and Brooksville mural outside. Plenty of seating when we were there. The food looked good but we didn’t try anything this time.

Our family loves Mountaineer coffee for the incredible quality, great staff and fun atmosphere. It’s our go to coffee spot and we love the homemade pop tarts! They have creative seasonal flavors and all kinds of delicious new treats to try! Highly recommend!

Mountaineer Coffee in downtown Brooksville is a real coffee spot! Their coffee is absolutely amazing—rich, toasty flavor that makes it unique and unforgettable. The fact that they roast it just down the street adds a special touch of local charm. Their hot croissants are a must-try: buttery, flaky, and huge! And don’t miss the homemade pop pastries—they’re simply delightful. The service is top-notch, with a friendly and welcoming staff that makes every visit a treat. The vibe here is fantastic—perfect for relaxing or being productive. They offer strong, fast Wi-Fi, and the cozy little rooms with plenty of tables make it an ideal spot to set up for remote work. Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee or settling in for the day, Mountaineer Coffee is the place to be!

Stumbled upon this great cafe just passing through town. Easy parking on side streets or across the main road. Feels fancy and fresh. Great coffees and great service. Had gluten free cookies and muffins. There are three separate rooms to sit in or work from, so it's easy to find a quiet spot.

Super friendly staff. My cousin and I stopped by on our way, home from seven sister springs. The staff was amazing.The barista had great skills with making pictures out of foam free handed. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area.

The best caramel latte ever! Their caramel sauce is so delicious and unique. We drive from Ruskin, wish there were more locations! We love their baked goods too!! !

Great Coffee, I traveled an hour to get there to try them out and it was worth it. I had an iced mocha latte and my son had an iced caramel latte. He said he could taste the butter in the caramel and that they probably made it there. They also had a little gift shop and areas to sit and enjoy your coffee and snacks.

Super cute little spot! Food and coffees were great! Very busy on weekends so best to expect to wait a bit. The service is all very friendly but just think they could work on the seating procedure and wait times for food a bit better. For example 4 couples waiting for tables for 20-30 mins but a party of 6 arrives and get sat immediately because there was a larger table available right away. Other than those minor inconveniences, great place!

This establishment is absolutely amazing! The food is outstanding. I got the French girl coffee normally I have 2 cups of coffee every morning I only needed 1 with this one. I got the strawberry crepe it was so filling. When you go make sure you check out the bathrooms they are so adorable. This is a quaint place to go. Oh and make sure you check out the floors in each room they are hand painted.

The Lazy Maid Crêperie is absolutely delightful! The food was delicious and amazing — every bite was full of flavor and perfectly made. The place itself is so quaint and charming, with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay and relax. Our server, Megan, was so sweet and attentive, which made the experience even better. I can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu. Highly recommend!

The Lazy Maid Crêperie is a true hidden gem that captures the charm of France in every detail. From the moment you step inside, you’re met with enchanting décor that feels both whimsical and elegant an atmosphere that makes every visit special. Their crêpes are nothing short of extraordinary. Light, delicate, and authentically French, yet elevated with a diverse menu that caters to every mood and craving. I especially love the monthly specials they offer they're always creative, thoughtful, and a nice surprise that keeps me coming back. The coffee deserves its own applause, their espresso is rich, smooth, and crafted with more care than I’ve found in most cafes. It’s the perfect pairing with any crêpe, whether you’re in the mood for something sweet, savory, or both. What makes The Lazy Maid even more exceptional is its inclusivity. With vegetarian, gluten-free, and customizable options, they make sure everyone can enjoy a meal tailored to their needs without sacrificing flavor or quality. It’s rare to find a place that balances authenticity, creativity, and hospitality so seamlessly, but The Lazy Maid Crêperie has done exactly that. A must-visit for anyone who loves good food served in a beautiful setting.

We visited this restaurant for the first time for Sunday breakfast and found the delightful exterior to be the nicest part. Unlike the building (absolutely beautiful renovation and decorations), there is a veneer masking the fact that they microwave their food. The chicken in my crepe was clearly pulled from a bag of Sam’s club tenders, microwaved, and then placed on the griddle to cover but it just focused it more. It’s frustrating as I really want this business to succeed but we do have a strong competition locally. The waitress we had was very nice, but we heard the chef shouting at his staff and singling them out in the kitchen. I now know somebody likes to go outside and vape for 20 minutes. I shouldn’t know that about the staff. Additionally, the owner sat behind the counter and gossiped with the wait staff 5 feet from our table and we couldn’t enjoy a private breakfast. None of the meal held up to the promise of their social media. Mine was haphazardly put together, and the chicken distinctly different from what they posted. We are in the American south - homemade food should be a given. The only portion good was my wife’s blueberry crepe and even then it was half whipped cream. There is a strong tradition of quality they’ve tried to co-opt by positioning themselves as a French restaurant. But it doesn’t deliver or at least didn’t for us. I really want to like this, I love when local businesses win. It just did not win my business today.

We didn’t have a very good experience. Unfortunately, it looks like we went on a very busy day & time BUT the kitchen messed up our order and the crepes were cold, only thing that was hot was my soup. We waited more than a half out for a table & an hour and a half for food which probably didn’t help. They’ve had a lot of hype on the news and Instagram recently but definitely can’t handle the weekend traffic like today. I ordered the Monte Christo, but somehow got my wife’s roast beef in my crepe. It looks like my wife got my ham & turkey instead of getting the ham and roast beef for the Monsieur Havana. No confusion on our end but the host tried to convince us otherwise (it’s clear on the menus what meats should be on each item). A simple I’m sorry let me see what I can do would’ve been a better solution than trying to cover the mistake. But she did “let the kitchen know”!!! The Lazy Maid Creperie is a cute place and it would probably be best to visit on a weekday. Hopefully you’ll have a better dining experience than we did. Too long of a wait, too long waiting for food and unfortunately the kitchen messed up both orders and the food could’ve at least been warm. We did point this out but no manager addressed it.

What a quaint and fun French bistro. Love the parasols from the ceiling. The crepes were amazing! Delicious. Service was great. Shout out Meghan - Always smiling and so friendly. We’ll visit many times I’m sure. Next time on a Monday when they have Mimosas. Pic is called their Raspberry Beret. Yum. Had it with a really good espresso.

I Order a Pizza through Uber Eats. I got the wrong Pizza. I call them and they tell me the Pizza is there with the topping I selected. When I explain that I have got a Pizza and it is the wrong Pizza the guy says "That is an issue between you and Uber Eats." How could you mess up a Pick Up Pizza Order with one topping? Then admit it by saying the Pizza is there for you with the one topping. The Pizza I Ordered was more expensive that the Pizza I received.

The pizza was beautiful it tasted delicious as well. I tried their pizza after getting some coupons in the mail. Well worth the price too definitely will have again.

Pizza with Pepperoni, Sausage and Onion was awesome and so were Cheezy Breadsticks, done perfectly. Nice Job. Friendly Staff and food was done on time. Thanks Howie's!!

I don't know if this place is under new ownership or just decided to send their calls overseas but, buyer beware, I just placed an order gave some random foreigner my card who then proceeded to transfer me to the physical store, did I mention he pushed a button that beeped when I read my card, his reason for transferring me was to place my order that he just took, he lied and said they couldn't take the order but he damn sure charged my card, scammy if you ask me, wait it gets better the manager at the broolsville store said there was no order but his suggestion is place the order again. Not even addressing the fact they already charged me $42. I refuse to ever order from them again I been ordering from this location for 10 years, this incident feels like credit card fraud calling my bank and disputing. Be careful ordering on the phone feom them it's very sketchy.

Hungry Howies is always good! The only thing wrong is that there are no Hungry Howie's near us and we live out of their delivery zone. I have to drive about 21 miles to get their pizza, but it's that good.

Smallest chicken wings ever! The large ones are from Zaxbys. Update 10-4-19. Just ordered the Pizza Sub. Pathetic! Nothing even on it! This is the last time we will ever order from this location.

Our Hungry Howies locale in Brooksville Fl. had a large two topping pizza deal $8.99 per pizza. We ordered two pepperoni and bacon pizzas and one sausage and bacon pizza. My husband went to pick it up and was charged $36.00 and some change. After he got home we called and were told that bacon is an upcharge $3.00 per pizza! Which I was never informed of. Next time we will be taking our business to Pizza Hut!! Adding a photo of the receipt which doesn’t show an up charge or for that matter any totals

Nice. Out doors is really shady and they had huge fans up. Stage is nice. Dance floor. Great for family fun. (we were part of a memorial benefit that was held there and it went very, well) We didn't eat. Thanks to staff and all that participated. 🙂

No food ! But a regular customer Karen brought in Buffalo chicken dip for the football game. Bobbie the bartender is awesome ! Going again soon !

This is one of our usual stops on the way back from an epic ride through north central Florida. The drinks are always ice-cold here and the bloody-Mary never disappoints. There is plenty of shaded parking all around the place and sometimes you'll find a campfire lit. If you dont like sitting outside go on in and enjoy a game of pool or darts in the air conditioning or just sit back and enjoy some biker war stories.

There's no food 😭 Funny thing is that's why I stopped because I thought that they served food.

Great local bar. Bartenders have your drinks on the counter before you even order them. Love that. People are extremely friendly. Can't think of a place I'd like to go to more . This was Halloween night and I wore vintage 1930s gown. Julie wore vintage 1960s. Had a blast.

Great place, great service, and ice cold 🍺

Best bartender, Dawn you rock.

I place deli order online for American Yellow Cheese the Deli cut and sliced American WHITE! This is not the first time. They have substituted or changed or made a mistake with calling me. Deli has some good employees but they have a handful that are not very detailed!

Well managed Publix. Always friendly and in stock.

Overall a nice shopping plaza. I stopped to go to Publix which was very clean and well stocked.

I left a 5 star review a few months ago , unfortunately this Brooksville Publix is a disaster. My husband & I just left in disbelief from the produce section they don’t sell bay leaves fresh from the refrigerator which I purchase every week, besides tried to order a pasta brand Flora I never received a call if they can get it or not it’s been a month . This Publix is always always out of many products being a Floridian it’s extremely disappointing we all know about the New residents but your Publix doesn’t keep up with any orders and terrible customer service & remarks of we don’t sell that is common in your store . Very sad and disappointing. Should be a ZERO

Great environment, products, and customer service. I recommend 👌

Nice group of stores with a Publix, bar b que restaurant, gym, nail place

Clean and fully stocked, deli sandwiches are always good

We had so much fun here at Bulls Broncs Barrels! Everyone was so laid-back, and the entertainment was fabulous. We’ll definitely be back!

We came for the Hernando Invasion car show. I have never seen such a disorganized group. Their ad says free admission but we had to pay $10.00 to park! No one is directing cars where to park. Only one bathroom. The show cars parked where they wanted to. Not a lot of cars there. When we were ready to leave there was only one exit. We had to drive through the crowd and all the vendors which were set up on the roadway. Then there was the closed gate. But some one did come open it. The road was blocked by folks coming into the show. It sure would have been nice to have a police officer directing traffic trying to turn right on a high speed roadway. I wonder how many accidents happened that day.

Wwent to 4th of July event last night. A little warm out but not horrible. JW from 99.9 was there hosting the demolition derby. Great times. The fire work display was great too.

We went on the 4th of July for the demo derby and fireworks and it was a pleasant experience. It was a very hot day so we couldn't really enjoy the outdoor activities much and kept the kids inside the buildings where they had crafts and corn hole game. The demo derbie was AWESOME and the kids LOVED IT! The fireworks show was very nice as well... not too short and not too long. All in all, we will be back again!

Great cars for kids car show,Food trucks ,vendors, dog show & if you into going deaf they have vehicles on the other end with sound systems that shake the vehicle.

It was fun for what it was.It was a nice, cheap derby.The food is of course outrageously priced.And of course we had six kids, so that was a little disappointing, but other than that, where isn't the food or drinks unreasonably priced?L o l

Wish the event was more organized. If derby tickets were pre purchased online there should be no reason to wait for a wristband. Just show the ticket at the derby gate.

Food was good, fresh orange juice amazing, and service was great. Will definitely go back if in that area visiting again.

Awesome place! I stopped in on my way through town, and had a great meal! I can't say enough nice things about the place. The people, food, and atmosphere are pure southern Florida 👌🏻

The very best food! Service is great too. You might have a wait but it is worth it.

Great place to stop after eating at the kitchen or having some drinks at the tap house. All kinds of Florida gifts as well as some whiskey and wines.

Raddest Breaky in town. Fresh juice, Scratch - Yep SCRATCH biscuits, gravy, the best most dangerous cinnamon roll in the state - all the things.... 😁 A must, thank me later. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ✨

Always a nice bike ride or for breakfast. Food was wonderful as always.

"As you travel down life's path, always keep your eye on the doughnut and not the hole." -Grand Ma Lewis (on my bottle of Florida Cracker hot sauce) I encountered their Anastasia Datil Pepper XXX Hot Sauce on the table at the aptly named Crackers Cafe in Indiantown, nearly 200 miles to the southeast. A few drops to test for hotness and then small pour. This is tasty stuff. A little hot, probably around as much as a habanero. Not all fire, this has depth and deliciousness, bringing out the flavor of my omelet in a nice way. I would definitely look for this on the shelves. Yum.

They lie about what's happening. They don't update your address when you give it to them. Then they send your private information to the wrong house. When you don't get the mail from them it's somehow your fault even though you did everything you could to make sure that they had your information. The civil court judge sides with abusers and won't grant injunctions when your life is in danger. Absolutely abhorrent excuse for a justice department.

I was taken in to jail for a warrant of my arrest. (It was never on my records, even when they try to search for it, they couldn't find it.) And, I choose not to fight the case in the end. (Because, I'm trying to focus on myself, and get back in my feet and, I'm fully aware that, I'm innocent before God.) I was released. Just to find out, that, the warrant for my arrest was actually false, and the person (A certain officer) that submitted the warrant for my arrest, falsely claim that the victim (A family member) wanted to press charges against me. And, I Just found out, they never wanted to press charges to begin with, since, it wasn't even that serious. And, they wasn't aware about the incident about me. (I'm Homeless, from a different state, abandoned from my own blood relatives, after so many years of abuse, now in the state of FL, with no source of Cash income. Yet, there's possibly a chance, they want me to pay up a court fee. With, what money? Very sad, what this country has become.) :|

This is the nicest and fastest county clerks office I’ve been in during my years living in Florida. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and eager to help resolve any issues or requests for information. A great example of public service offices.

I walked around the building really nice place some parts were under construction but the staff was nice and helped me when I asked for it I wish the old Court room was open for viewing because it is a gorgeous court room sadly when you call you get put on hold for a ridiculous amount of time but other than that everything lovely thank you for having me

Been calling to get someone that knows what they are doing. Left Name and Phone Number a few Times to Nothing!! No Call from Anyone. This is why People don't Trust any Government Person or their Dept. Jerk around.

I completed every step of the process to get my name legally changed and when it was finally time to have a date scheduled to go in front of a judge for it, I never had a date sent to me and couldn't reach anyone by phone or email. I kept getting transferred from person to person or just completely ignored. Now I'm still stuck with a name that isn't mine and I was so close to the finish line. Really bummed. I only put 2 stars instead of one because the woman at the courthouse who helped get all my paperwork filed was very nice and supportive.

I could not believe how rude and unhelpful some of the people are on the phone, and even in person. It was unreal. It was like she DID NOT WANT to answer my questions and dead silence on the phone. I came in there as a victim of crimes, and I got ALMOST NO HELP on how to navigate the courts. Due to lack of help, the freak who shoots dogs for sport got no punishment, who also left my autistic child traumatized and my family had to live in fear. I'm considering moving out of Hernando County. The police here also failed us. In this county and many others be prepared for the police to not act on gun crimes, in our case, myself and the children were being stalked by a freak using gun fire (and other methods such as assault) in a threatening manner right next to my house. Of course why wouldn't he, he knew he could shoot dogs for sport and get away with it, even with a witness. We have remedied this situation by installing video surveillance all over our lot and installing shipping containers to block bullets from hitting our house. This has cost us around $30,000. When I called Hernando police for help, the "police officer" on the phone defended the guy stalking me and was concerned his guns would be taken away if I asked for an Order of Protection (restraining order). Since the weirdo "officer" on the phone let me know that he cares more about this freak keeping his guns then my family being shot by him, I then called Dawn Center which is free legal help for female victims of stalkers. However, they don't help if they are neighbors, it needs to be your boyfriend or husband. So I took him to court but due to lack of help chose the wrong type of Order of Protection. Otherwise a lawyer was going to charge me $5000. I don't see why a victim would need to pay $5000 to stop myself and family from being stalked. Anyways, taking him to court scared him and he stopped the behavior but I did not get a restraining order because I chose the wrong type of petition. But do know in this county, without a lawyer, you will not succeed in a stalking case or in a small claims court case, even with photos, witnesses, police reports. I don't fault the judge who handled the restraining order case, it was the staff at the front that couldn't tell me if it was a Repeat Violence or Stalking type of Order of Protection. I was so exhausted doing this myself. By the way, do not bother with a small claims court case in this county. When you come into court with actual photos of the damaged property and obvious the neighbors equipment damaged your fence because you can see it poking through your fence in the photo, the judge doesn't do anything and in a round about way tells you that you need to hire a lawyer. So you've paid hundreds of dollars to this joke of a county court, to get nothing for your damages. Judge Judy puts this court to shame. For some odd reason, she and every other small claims court is able to make a judgment call with substantial evidence. Don't waste your money, just realize that in this county you will be forced to hire a lawyer.

This small city park, situated on the Good Neighbor Trail, could be a good spot to have lunch. Beautiful old Oaks provide plenty of shade for the picnic tables.

Plenty of parking. Well maintained. Best place to start the Good Neighbor Trail.

Lovely place to stop with your pup...😒

It is a nice and quiet park. It has picnic tables. A family could go and have a nice time.

Very nice and quiet place to have lunch and take your kids too

It's very peaceful here. :)

A nice park to have a picnic at. It is nice and quiet, with picnic tables.

Worse bowling alley I have been to. I came here because it had good reviews and I was highly disappointed. From the street you can’t tell it’s a bowling alley and when you are walking in it’s dirty. The inside isn’t much better. I went around 6pm on a weekday and it took me like 10 minutes for someone to come to the register and give us a lane there were like 3 people working there and I was literally the only customer. You could see the kitchen from the register and it looked dirty so I didn’t order any food. Now as far as the lanes go they are poorly maintained. The lanes were super dry, the pin setter kept knocking down pins I had to keep resetting it, the lane floor looked kind of warped. Only thing that worked correctly was the score board and the ball return. I feel like this used to be a good bowling alley at one point and management completely neglected it now it’s like a dive bar with a bowling alley in it.

I go bowling Tuesday and Wednesday night with my neighbors we have a great time

This was a good ole'country bowling alley.. would go back againl

Pretty quiet place. Friendly staff

It Brockville Florida 2024 it beautiful place

nice for a walk

Very informative, and helpful.

Strange museum/zoo that I suppose you just have to see! Cute for adults and kids. It also has a free mini golf that needed work but worth the price of admission.

This is my third time coming back to this wonderful and mysterious gem. I love how unique everything is and the two ladies that have been working there since I have gone are sweethearts. There is so much to do and they even mentioned how they will be opening up later in the evenings due to the summer heat. That said, ice-cream was delicious, animals were taken care of like royalty and loved how you can even partake in giving them snacks, and there is so much to look at you always feel like your missing out if you turn a different way. Would recommend this place for all ages🥰

We came there only to feed the animals I wasn’t expected there a museum and different corridors. I mean I think it’s unnecessary stuff in my opinion looked kinda creepy and I didn’t understand all random rooms especially aquarium that only 2-3 tanks have fishes but we could feed some animals it was cute. There is no bag with food for you to feed them so they just give you a food to your hand with every animal. To feed most of them it wasn’t easy because you are mostly far from the cage and will not reach out to feed all of them. The conclusion?- It’s fine but just for once

We went to what I thought was a small zoo and mini golf course, we left this amazingly quirky, backroom infused, barage on your senses, museum of everything odd and wonderful with memories of strange but happy fun. The animals seem to be well fed and taken care of, and the mini golf course will leave the best players scratching their heads wondering how to make their next shot not be a lost cause.

What an interesting place with so many attractions. Its like a mix of an old history museum, ol timey roadside attraction, put putt, petting zoo, antiques roadshow extravaganza. There's so much to see throughout multiple buildings it's totally worth it just to see this beautifully bizarre attraction.

Have been here twice. It's a sight to see. Guide was a little off-putting with remarks about that they normally have children visitors. I WILL TELL YOU WITH MY FULL CHEST...if I was a kid this place would give me Nightmares! But maybe child eyes are more forgiving? I will be as honest as I can without giving away too much because it's an experience for sure. Bring Bug Spray/Hand Sanitizer for out by the Animals and know there's only a few that you can touch or pet. Staff provides some snacks for you to give them. I don't advise buying all the bags they list as options online for reservations $$$. Be prepared to be lost as well, so wear good shoes, have your phone charged for pics/flashlight and stay together.

What a hidden gem! We really enjoyed the tour through the museum and the petting zoo. So much fun for the kids.

The caves are small but interesting we enjoyed the time spent there

Did a 8 mile hike there for two purposes. I am a wildlife photographer and wife getting ready for the AT. Mostly overcast and a good amount of trees for the added “reprieve “ from our Florida sun. All in all, a nice hike and was able to photograph the “elusive” Sherman’s Fox Squirrel. Some trail maintenance looks to be needed, however not too terribly bad. Definitely recommended…

Amazing beautiful trails, but make sure to bring protection ( gun ) with you. We ( my toddler) were followed and possibly stalked by a Florida panther.

The Withlacoochee Red Trail Loop is one of the most scenic trails around Tampa Bay that I have walked. It was cool weather so I didn't see much wildlife. I found the scenery was very nice, especially around the river. An added bonus is the tower along the path. I can see why the previous commenters were confused by the All Trails map. I found that I had to follow the orange blazes for 3/4 of the loop, then switched to follow the blue blazes. This is the only way I could stay on the All Trails path.

Nature at its best! Clear marked hiking trails a lake for kayaking etc. the lots are cleaned campgrounds maintained and ladies showers restrooms are cleaned daily whoooo Overall a great experience

This state forest offers an abundance of destinations to enjoy nature. Cooler temperatures in October and November make those months my favorite time to hike and explore the forest. Photos and video accompanying this review were taken near the intersection of Stage Coach Trail and Citrus Way.

I just the the beautiful outdoors enjoyment. From the nature trails bike riding trails an 4x4 trail riding to also horse back riding. The lakes the birds the trees the flowers the views are breath taking from Croom to Sumter to Bushnell to richloam to citrus Hernando two mile perry Croom motorcycle Area an all the day use areas.

Great historic property with beautiful views and scenery. There are guided and self-guided tours available but I would suggest buying tickets in advance as they closed before we got there.

This is a beautiful piece of history. The manor is currently closed for repairs, I was told it is scheduled to reopen in September. The property features large plantation mansion with the most wonderful wraparound porch on the top and bottom floors. The top floor of the home hosts a museum with so much history, artifacts, letters and more. Many of the rooms have original furniture and decor. The property also has 7 cottages that each sleep 8. They have a living room, kitchen, dining room and 4 rooms with 2 twin beds. Each room had it's own bathroom. There is also a dining hall with a commercial kitchen, fire pit and classroom with a 100+ capacity. But to me, the stand out is the oak trees. 2 main trees have been named and hold great historical significance, but the property is glittered with stunning oaks and other plants. It would be a perfect location for a wedding or any other event. Looking forward to visiting again.

Was going to stop at the public walk (which I will do at another time), but then drove a little farther down the road and found that there's an old plantation with this area, Chinsegut Hill. Absolutely beautiful! You can walk around the huge yard and drives going under huge old trees. One even has a staircase as if your going to a tree house. Quiet... And a wonderful view

I visited here Saturday and was pleasantly suprised by the house and grounds. I was only able to see one room of the museum (the house is the museum) because I was told the a.c. was broke and their were no volunteers who would stay. That was pretty disappointing but I still quite enjoyed walking around the upstairs and downstairs porch, as well as walking around the property with so many gorgeous old oaks. I am looking forward to going back to hopefully see all of the museum and update this review to 5 stars!

Historic location in Brooksville. Family history of this often overlooked site is intertwined with Florida politics, prohibition, imancipation, and even ties into US relations with Soviet Russia. Tour is about an hour. May be hot in summer so dress for comfort.

Overjoyed to discover this hidden gem on a tranquil hillside near Brooksville. I attended a plant sale under the oaks but there are a lot of special events so I will be returning soon. The history of the house is fascinating. The staff was very helpful. I am looking forward to renting one of the cottages for a family retreat.

This was an absolutely beautiful place, really great piece of history, big property, great walking/hiking trails, awesome old historical buildings throughout. The citrus trees and MASSIVE bamboo were really cool to see! A definite MUST GO. Great for the whole family! We had a great time, suggest shoes and a lightweight stroller that can easily maneuver different terrain or a hiking pack to carry babies easily. We did it with a regular stroller which worked but it didn't like the different terrain changes much so it definitely required a little more energy to push ours 🤣 still worth it though. Bring water!! If it's a cooler day, bring bug spray I'm sure they will get bad.

Great wine selection overall and reasonable prices. Owner could be more pleasant. He's very dry and acts like you're bothering him despite paying him for an experience at his winery. Nice chill vibe with live music and food trucks.

I really enjoyed the wine and appreciated how friendly the staff was. Their wines stand out, even among Florida’s fruit wines, and the outdoor area is great — set up on top of a hill. P.s. those with "+" are my top picks.

The winery hosts a lot of cover band shows. With the new stage and the new seating area it is a very enjoyable experience. We've seen The Ultimate RUSH tribute, The Ultimate Pink Floyd tribute, Skyn Folks and more. I'd highly recommend a night out to Sparicia winery!

Our second time going to the winery and it was just as good. We went to pick up some new/more wines and Chrissy was awesome. She explained the taste/ sweetness of each wine she served us so that we could make the best choice. Will definitely be back!!!

There's always something fun going on here! I wish I lived closer. Their wines a top notch and they also have a full blown wine shop with vino from all over the World.

This place is magical! Peaceful and either a great selection of wines and beers. I go every weekend, for live music or just to relax at this Brooksville mountain.

This is a good size winery that has a large spacious area with plenty of tables to sit at and listen to entertainment while sampling the wines. They have a large selection of wines available along with other drinks if wine is not your thing. The night we were there they had multiple food trucks and a fun entertainer who kept us all going for the evening. This is a bit of an out-of-the-way place so be sure to look up your directions before heading out. While we are in the area we will definitely be going back again!

Nice, but nothing special. A secluded walk however the main roads are nearby so you can hear cars the whole time. From the parking lot to a full loop without going off to the small paths is about 3.3 miles. Definitely worth at least a visit once.

One of the best trails I have been on. Very well maintained with different short trails to see the lake. It even has a boardwalk through a Cypress grove. There is even a duck blind you can sit in and watch the wildlife.

The trails are well marked and you will be pleasantly surprised by some nice elevation gains on this hike.

This was a nice easy trail around a scenic marsh/trail. There was a surprising number of birds . The lake views were the best part. If time allows, you need to see the restored Chinsegut home and grounds across the street from the trailhead. It's beautiful!

Nice hike up to the nature center and back.

Wide hiking trails in natural habitat. Many nature related events take place here. Wheelchair accessible but likely very rough on trails. Public restroom. Check hours they are open before heading out.

I did not expect to find beautiful murals in the bathrooms here, but there they were 😄 Lovely area for shorter or longer hikes. The parking, trails, and bathrooms were open but the visitor center was not when I visited last week.

Absolutely peaceful park. Hiking trails are perfect for long and short walks. Great for families to go for picnics they have multiple tables throughout the park. Loved it!

Absolutely beautiful, just watch out for the crocs on the banks.

Wonderful views of lake scenery. You can either drive around the lake or walk through a short 20 minutes’ trail surrounding the lake. You can use the bridge at one end of the lake functions as a shortcut when walking. You can also simply just enjoy the swing near the bathroom. We enjoyed a very relaxing and peaceful half afternoon there.

Super clean park, easy to navigate (only one way around the lake). Super cool to be able to facilitate an event here! We've been in business almost 10 years, and this was one of the most affordable locations that we have ever seen. We did not personally book the event, we just supplied the decorations and set up. Pavilion rental is an easy process, super affordable, and you have plenty of time. The entire park is extremely well clean, wildlife everywhere, with enough locations being far enough away, where you don't feel like you are trapped. The event we facilitated was first week of August, and with the shading provided by the trees, it did not seem to warm. Definitely a great location for those of you looking to have a wedding or an event on a budget. -FarmerAndTheDell.com

Great place for birding, special and important Florida, go check it out. It's good for the soul

Nice easy nature trail going around the lake. The highlight here is the lake and the amazing views you get from different points along the trail. Quiet and peaceful area during the week, great for some relaxing time.

Nice little rec area off hwy 41. A little tough to fish from the bank, but a boat or a canoe would be best. Tree lined path to walk or jog. Picnic benches. BBQ pits. Bathrooms. $2.00 fee.

Mr. Wood was a great host very informative and friendly. He gave a brief tour and ensured our safety. Afterwards you're on your own to enjoy the trail. The trail was sort of confusing however you take a picture of the map and should be able to find your way around. Best part of this ride was the deer I came across. I would recommend.

My family and friends celebrated my birthday here and we cannot wait to come back and rent with Woods ATV Rentals. Very accommodating and easy rental process. My 10 year old son got to ride his own atv and he said it's the most fun he's ever had! Thanks woods!

Can’t recommend Woods ATV more! They were super friendly, had great equipment and had everything else we needed to have a good time. We had such a great day trekking through the forest!

5 stars awesome experience...Will let you do you your own thing which I did but I got lost and thats not fun when its hot as hell. I used google maps to find my way parallel to hwy 75. After that I followed him. He went fast enough to have fun without killing yourself. I love speed and he was gping fast and would stop to check or let ppl catch up.

Renting A side-by-side at Croom has never been easier. Wood and his crew know how to make people feel welcome and safe and we had an absolute blast. Highly recommend this company for any rentals at chrome for a fun day out on the trails.

AWESOME SAUCE!!!! we had a blast! The owner/operator was knowledgeable, experienced, responsive to all of my questions, and I had many. He was patient with our group, and we had an amazing time! If you are on the fence, definitely book Woods ATV. You won't regret it! My family came to Orlando, Florida to ride ATV's and this place was great!

This was my first time doing atv, the instructor was super friendly and even when I got lost he was very patient trying to help me get back. His wife was also very attentive making sure everything was a smooth process.

Wonderful trail and one of the best back roads in the State of Florida. Great hiking opportunity. The trail goes downhill from the trailhead, so be prepared to hike uphill on the way back to your car.

Many trails of all lengths. Once you get a couple of miles from the car it's unusual to see anyone. We love this place and often drive an hour to get here. Recommended highly for hikers, bikers and horseback riders....all on different trails.

Great multiuser state forest location. Hiking, equestrian, and mountain biking. The terrain here is often used by hikers training for out of state treks. Historic cemetery a short walk from trailhead. Nice bathroom facilities. Large parking area for cars and for horse trailers.

Tucker Hill is a part of Croom WMA and is located in the Withlacoochee State Forest. Croom WMA is located in Hernando and Sumter counties northeast of Brooksville, and encompasses more than 20,000 acres. This tract of the Withlacoochee State Forest lies along 13 winding miles of the Withlacoochee River and includes Silver Lake. Cypress and large expanses of longleaf pine dominate this forest. The trailheads here include hiking, horse, off-road bicycle, also Twin Pond and East Croom hunt camps are open seasonally. There are numerous recreational trails: hiking (31 miles), bicycling (64 miles), horseback riding (43 miles). The paved Withlacoochee State Trail goes through the area. The restrooms are clean and there is a bike wash area here. I saw wild turkey, Whitetail deer, gopher tortise, a rainbow snake crossing the paved trail and a variety of song birds. I enjoyed the day and I will be back!

Well maintained trail. A little bit of elevation gain and loss, the hills of Florida!

Great place to hike, bike and horse back ride. I love hiking the A, B and C loops. C loop being my favorite. Beautiful environment with many changes in eco systems along the trail.

Some of the best mountain biking trails in central Florida. This is not your typical flat Florida. There is 178 feet of elevation difference in this area. The trails are well marked, challenging and maintained by a local M. Biking club. There is a two dollar parking fee. Find the envelopes in a small metal box adjacent to the info kiosk Pay the fee as they have volunteers that will ticket you. Don’t miss a tiny family cemetery with all the birth and death dates except a few in the 1800s. It is an unmarked very short trail just adjacent to the hiking trail near the kiosk Croom hiking loop C is an 8 mile loop that will challenge the best with good elevation changes. Part of the trail cuts through a hunting camp with some small RVs and even a porta potty. You can cut 1.5 miles off the hike by taking this sand road as a shortcut. Very scenic. Lots of butterflies.

This is a nice quiet park where you can have multiple activities. There is a boat ramp. If you decide that you want to go fishing plenty of parking. It’s kind of secluded kind of quiet. It does have a playground for kids. The restrooms are available. Nothing else much going on here. It is kind of small, but it is connected to a trail. If you have a bike or you’re gonna be walking

It is one of the most peaceful places in Florida. Nice little dock that goes add on to the lake unfortunately no seating area out on the lake but there is a entrance to the lake it's very Gravely and lots of potholes but if you are good at boating you can launch from that location. There's a couple of picnic tables close to the lake, but most of the park is out towards the front of the road. The preserve that outlines the lake is really beautiful, with giant cypress trees. There are always a variety of different kinds of birds. Today, I got to meet Winnie, who was a beautiful horse. She took a 3-mile ride from the stable to come cool off in the lake. I just happened to find this place on a road trip. But it is a great place if you want to put on a kayak or a small boat. Or you can relax and fish off the pier. It's a peaceful place. Remember when you come to the park you have to drive to the back where it says boat ramp. It's just a little park with the trail that goes through it!! Don't forget the bug spray it is a preserve . And also not a swimming spot. There are definitely Gators

Nice park and resting area along the Withlacoochee trail if you are cycling.🚴‍♂️ It's about 15 miles from Inverness to the north, and 16 miles to Owensboro to the south and end of the trail. There is water available, and the restrooms are clean. It also has a beautiful swampy section where the boat-ramp is located with a good-sized fishing dock. I have launched kayaks from this area. Great fishing here, but watch out for gators. They can get quite close.

We Conoed from Silver Lake to Lake Townsen Preserve and it was absolutely stunning the whole time. We saw plenty of alligators and even had a very close encounter with a very big one that could've gone badly, but thankfully it didn't 🤣 all-in-all it was about a 7 mile conoe trip and we loved it. Plenty of open areas as well as some narrow areas of the river and there was even a downed tree that caused us to have to get onto the tree and lug our conoe over which wasn't as hard as it sounds and felt very adventurous. It was a very fun and beautiful adventure!

This off the beaten path park is a peaceful place to enjoy real Florida. We usually come here on weekdays when it's not crowded and quiet. The fishing pier affords beautiful views of the Withlacoochee river. Some trails are pleasantly shaded and have covered picnic tables or benches to take a break. Ammenities include - ↪️ Restrooms ↪️ Boat ramp (fee required) & fishing pier 🎣 ↪️ Pavilions with grills as well as many picnic tables ↪️ Hiking, biking, and equestrian trails ↪️ Playground, basketball court, and volleyball court ↪️ Baseball field

Nice, though a bit worn and in need of TLC. There is a boat launch, fishing pier, pave roads for bicycling, horse trails (I presume, since I saw horses in the parking lot). Pavilions with picnic tables, smaller sheltered picnic tables, playground, volleyball court, basketball court, and athletic field.

Love stopping by while biking the trail near by.

This park is kind of out there, not much else around. The playground is nice and appears to be the same model as Kennedy Park. The playground is pretty far from the restrooms and water fountain so it kind of a pain. It's not fenced so not good for runners or kids with special needs. There was plenty of shade and the parking lot was big enough for larger vehicles like rvs.

Nice playground area for kids. Has picnic tables that are covered and restrooms. I just wish they would spray the ground for all the bugs and mosquitoes!

Nice quiet park. My son wanted to kick the soccer ball around, though, and while the field was recently mowed, the nets were all lined up at the side of the field and in very poor condition!

Great ball fields, great place to bring the kids, 4 stars because it's becoming a bit worse for wear and could use some maintenance as far as upkeep and paint. It's not bad at thing point but it's getting there. Still one of the best parks in the area though.

I went to watch my grandson play soccer. The lights went out for about 20 minutes. The bathrooms could use some care. Otherwise a nice park.

The area of the park we were located at, was just prior to the entrance of Ernie Weaver. Great piece of land need some upgrades to improve for the sports the children are playing on

The grass could be cut more often and a little shorter due to the bugs and ain't piles. Watch where you stand try not to stay in one spot long . The bathroom is always clean never had a issue there The consecution stand was not open for fall ball and I don't know if that's normal? Don't park off pavement in the overflow if it's raining even with a 4wheel drive truck lifted and all 4 dig I got stuck ! Becarefull my tires where not agressive enough .. anyway a cool ball park ....

Everything the previous 3 reviews said (from 2 & 3yrs ago) are still true. Broken climbing rocks, homeless man camped out, woman trying to bum money or cigarettes from me.

This beautiful park has been handed over to the homeless population. This park used to be great for families, but now it’s full of homeless camps, human waste, and the pavilion by the playground is always occupied by people sleeping on the picnic benches/tables. My kids even almost hit a sleeping person while playing disc golf. It’s sad to see it like this — I hope the city takes action soon.

This park has a great and challenging walking trail with beautiful views.

Very small and broken park would not recommend to anyone at leats the kids had some fun at the swing.

Everytime I've been here lately there are homeless men at the pavilion which doesn't bother me. What bothers me is when they're so drunk they can hardly walk, they're slurring their words, and trying to interact with my kids (while falling everywhere) in an attempt to "butter me up" to ask me for spare change for alcohol. They're even lining the walking trails on the picnic tables and sleeping in vehicles in the parking lot. It's not a comfortable experience to say the least. Hernando needs to do something, maybe investing in low cost or free substance abuse rehabilitation?

A beautiful little spot with plenty of things to do. Tennis courts, plenty of open spaces, bathrooms, a few walking trials, a little pins with a couple fountains, too! Walk the trails to the west a little bit and you'll find a 2nd park connected with baseball fields, a huge wooden playground great for kids! Plenty of parking and even basketball courts at the 2nd park (Tom Vern park, I believe it's called). Prefect place for a picnic and there are public grills to use as well!

Nice little park, in a sketchy neighborhood after dark. Didn't get to try out the walking trail but looks like they are doing a nice job with the land they appropriated. Can't wait to see it once finished.

This is not a park . It is not open to the public . This is pickets park private recreational center .

Nice park

Nice Place
