Really quaint park, with an A+ + staff. The boardwalk was u Der repairs but we did enjoy seeing some of the 150 year old living on display, and my kids loved feeding the pigs. This is not and all day stop, but a fantastic short trip visit.
It's a pleasant drive back in time. A true respite. A shelter for rescued animals. A breath of fresh air. You can also pick up some local good's.... jellies. sewn goods, other talented crafts.
This is a small local museum that features a Florida “cracker” farm and houses. The museum has a collection of antiques including farm equipment, loom and furniture. There are Longhorn Watusi, goats, chickens, wild hogs and a pair of Marshtakie cracker horses. If you enjoy cracker history you’ll enjoy this.
Love this place! It's so peaceful and beautiful! We saw sandhill cranes, fox squirrels, eagles, the web cam of the eagles nest is amazing in the welcome center! They had cracker cattle, cracker horses, pigs, goats and wildlife in abundance. The trails are fun and interactive for children and adult alike. The museum is a great representation of life during the 1800s. I can't wait to see the environmental room once its completed. The single room cabin and Tatum House are wonderful looks into central Florida history.This non profit is well worth the drive! I highly recommend sitting on the porch and soaking in the peace!
This place is truly unique. I've lived in Manatee County since 1987 and never knew this museum was here until we decided to visit Myakka State Park. This is a few minutes down the road from the North entrance of the park. If you love history, seeing historical buildings, or walking around for an adventure, this museum has it all! Honestly, we enjoyed this much more than the park. Also, they have a whole area for kids to play and adventure in.
