An extremely interesting place overall. Still massive amounts of mosquitos despite it ostensibly being winter. Also, I would suggest being very cautious about the Big Well trail. There are more large gators there than I think I've seen anywhere else, and I've been to several marshes. Large enough that they would probably be tempted to eat anything smaller than an adult, and even then I wouldn't test them. On my last visit, I watched a gator about as large as me swim up to the side of the trail I was about to approach (the one below is from my more recent trip, and it's a bit smaller). So yeah, if you have a dog or children stay away from Big Well. And if you can't run faster than five miles an hour, I would probably suggest the same.
