There is absolutely nothing special about any of the places you've been directed to. (Have to admit my description of special may be a bit different than others as I don't like Dives, Motorcycle stops, mediocre food etc). Also need to tell you that The Blackwater is two hours away only by Golf Cart and less than an hour if driving at a reasonable rate within the speed limit in a car. Actually, of all the ideas you've been given, The Blackwater is probably the best of all "the special on the water" places referenced. I say this only after assuming that you view Gators Dockside as "special".


The are a lot of "not on the water " places I'd prefer to take my guests to also.

Good luck!
Hey borisj. Your assessment is right on the mark. (that's a pun) Following these recommendations may get you near water but that's where the culinary experience will end. Mediocre is the proper descriptive adjective.
