Default Old Florida

All the criticisms above are valid, but I still like the place for an occasional visit. First, the setting is beautiful. Second, although it is run down, the park is a trip back into the past. Its a chance to see the traditional/pre-Disney Florida. It is also a fun place to take young grandkids, who might be a little overwhelmed by Disney, etc., and who really enjoy feeding the camels, the glass bottom boats, the jeep ride, and the animal shows.
