    Pool

    I can't say enough great things about Amity, they make you feel like family! I wish I found this place sooner. The drink prices are incredible, the ambiance inside is really fun but outside is even better! Great family owned watering hole that is welcoming for the entire family. Love sipping a cold one and watching the sunset on the St Johns. Looking forward to summer & bringing the kids to the pool!

    What an awesome little find!!!! It was suggested I check this place out by some friends, so I made the trek down that way to see what the fuss was all about... So, you turn on this dirt road.... and for awhile you think you are going nowhere... Then you pass a few trailers and wonder to yourself... "Can this be right?" So the road ends and there is a teeny tiny house... and again you kind of question what the heck you are doing there. And then you step inside... Cool little bar area, and some seating... but look beyond. You'll first eye the pool, not super large but immaculate. And then you see it. And it's absolutely breathtaking. A nice grassy area, right on the river, with a picture perfect pier and marina. I've only seen pictures of the sunsets, but the location is right on. I know people use the phrase "hidden gems" quite a bit, but seriously... that's exactly what this is. A row of chairs line up right on the river for perfect sunset and water watching, with a cold drink in your hand. It's gorgeous! You can rent the entire venue for a reasonable price, or stop on by and grab a drink in the bar area. Or if you have a boat, you can keep it here too. I thought it would take a bit longer to get to this location, but from Riverside, only took me about 20-25 minutes. A great little place for when you want to get out of the city, but not too far out of the city. :)

    What. A. View! Seriously you HAVE to enjoy a sunset here at least once. This is why Yelp exists. I would have not had ANY clue that this place existed if Yelp was not around. Located on the St. John's river - you have a gorgeous view of the water and docks. Amity actually means a friendly relationship and this is located at the end of Friendship road. How cool? Free to go down to the doc and enjoy the view. They have a bar/restaurant as well. There is a pool you can pay for a daily pass too if you want to go swimming. Kids welcome! They also are available for parties and events. What a great backdrop for an event. The couple who runs it, Keith & Alex, are so dang sweet too! If you are in town, make sure to go down the dirt path to the diamond in the rough!

    Was here for the Yelp Elite event on 3/31/15 and couldn't have asked much more for a great place to have had it. It's right on the St. John's river and so pretty. The owner seemed like such a genuine and nice guy when he explained the history of the place and the amenities they offered too. The patio they have has a grill and a bar area that I can imagine would be well used on a warm summer or spring evening. We definitely plan to come back and meet more new people.

    Well kept dock for boats.

    Beautiful place and a hidden gem. Great spot to enjoy a nice outdoor space and beautiful sunset. The swimming pool is membership only, but the grounds and the beer and wine bar and the snack bar are open to the public. Take a ride down here for a scenic treat on a nice day or beautiful evening. Great place to host a private event but warn the guests it will be worth the good long drive down a bumpy dirt road to get here.

    Elite Yelp Sunset Supper!!! What a great scenic location!!!  Pool, bar area, lights, incredible Place !!!

    Great place and the beer is the coldest I've ever had. Plus the view can't be beat. Cold beer and sitting on the river.

    Johns River has a nice swimming pool and beyond the pool there is a barbeque area before the pier out on the water.

    This review is solely of the eco-adventure services. I've used All Wet Sports twice for kayaking…read morerentals. The business takes walk ins and so I haven't prebooked rentals with them before. Now the pros: Within 10 minutes you're out on the water. The employees are laid back and make the process simple. You can't beat the price for an hour or two of adventure. The cons: The staff don't give much instruction. They tell you when to be back and that's about it. The gentleman recommended which direction to head in but didn't say how far you could travel in that direction or anything to be aware of. He also didn't say what I know, which is the one direction has quite a strong current and the other doesn't. I saw a couple who clearly had no experience paddle boarding struggle to get out onto the water. Though it's a public creek it would be nice if the company swept the route daily to pick up trash. I kayaked by several boards with nails sticking up and lots of plastic bottles.

    I went in last weekend for help with a peddle kayak repair (manufacturer issue). They were…read moreextremely generous with their time and expertise. Andy really is a Doctor of Floatology as his right hand man calls him! Also pleased to see a good range of supplies for a variety of water sports. I left the shop with a perfectly functioning peddle kayak drive, very high quality paddle with all the bells and whistles and more. I'll be back.

Yes..Yes you can bribe me with beer. Lol. We decided however to contact them and we hosted our own private party with a group of friends. Classes are full with a capacity of 11 people. Alot of friends were reluctant to come because they thought for sure they would fall off but we did way better than expected. Ive done maybe 3 yoga classes my whole life and that was about 5 yrs ago so we didnt know any moves and I had never been on a paddle board before so I went into this expecting a few falls however it was easier than I thought. I did not fall! #winner Before the event there is a short tutorial 101 to watch that goes over paddling and manuevering the board that was very helpful. When I first hit the water I was really nervous that the river was going to sweep me away but that feeling quickly left me as I became a pro on the water. We paddled upstream a little to this nice "elbow" area where there were egrets and cranes and osprey just hanging out enjoying the day. We hooked all our paddleboards to an anchored rope so that we didnt float away while doing our Yoga. Our Instructor, Kate, did an amazing job at teaching us newbies how to do some beginner yoga and guided meditation. It was really relaxing to be on the water and hearing the birds and feeling the wind. We even had a curious Manatee pop up and say hello. Now I know what your thinking. GATORS! That was my fear as well but Kate explained they are more scared of us than we are of them and they didnt like human activity and she has never encountered a gator. So I put my faith in her and low and behold I didnt get eaten! #2ndwin. These events are good for men and women and kids I say 13 and up would be a good starting age and Kate takes lots of pictures so you have proof that you came, you saw and you conquered and hey if you fall, you just land in the water. No harm done. I wont lie. I did want to kidnap my board and explore the rest of that area going rogue but I am going to save that for when I get my own board which thanks to Kate and this great event, I will be purchasing one. Cant wait to go again!

    Nice equipment, helpful staff members, affordable pricing. They sell little waterproof bags (and…read morebig drybags too) so that if you need to you can take electronics or clothing out on the boat with you. Souvenirs are park-specific which is nice. They were building a new restroom facility when we visited (Memorial Day 2017). There's also a picnic area with grills. There are classroom facilities too which can also be rented for meetings. The building has wifi. This building is separate from the other building with the cafe and store inside, which is closer to the beach. We will definitely rent another tandem kayak from here next time we camp at Anastasia State Park. The kayaking takes place over oyster beds so you CANNOT get out of the boat without injuring yourself. Beautiful views and we saw lots of wildlife, especially birds, crabs, and we think we saw a sea turtle quickly surface.

Definitely worth it!! Clearly they know what they're doing. We couldn't thank them enough. Hoping we get to go out with them again sometime soon!! We have so many amazing pictures I'll only be able to share a few.
