Bummer. The prices here are kind of like the Goodwill. Women's Clothes range from $6 to $8. They don't have a color code deal for the day you only get 25% off on Wednesdays. Pretty big parking lot.

At…read morefirst glance, it looks like you're about to hit the jackpot--but once you start browsing, it feels a bit underwhelming. From a distance the shelves look full, but up close there isn't much that stands out. Kind of a "Mona Lisa effect"--better from afar than up close. That said, the staff was friendly. One woman who worked there--short, wore glasses--was especially kind, though I didn't catch her name. The store is laid out nicely, and they had a lot of furniture available. If you're furniture shopping, this might actually be a good stop; the pieces looked decent and reasonably priced. They also appeared to use a color-tag discount system, though I'm not sure if it changes daily. About half the store was clothing, and the other half was bric-a-brac and furniture. I personally didn't find much this visit, but it could've just been an off day. I'd consider checking back in a couple of weeks to see if inventory changes. I did leave with one fun find: a vintage floating pool drink holder shaped like a rainbow, with space for ice and drinks--super cute and only $5. On the flip side, some prices felt off, like used wrapping paper priced at $3 when you can get a new roll at Dollar Tree for $1. Overall, it's worth checking out, especially for furniture, but don't go in expecting major thrifting treasures. Pretty cool that they are open on a Sunday, though. I will give them that. A medium size parking lot right in front. And a big grassy area if you have a dog that needs to go to the bathroom. Check it out? Definitely! Are there better thrift stores in Lakeland? Definitely!

Margaret Hames Nature Center is located in Turkey Creek Sanctuary in Palm Bay. The nature center…read moreopened in 1992 and was named in honor of Margaret Hames, a conservationist and teacher who was instrumental in developing and preserving Turkey Creek Sanctuary. The nature center is free and staffed by volunteers. It is open seven days a week from 9 AM to 4 PM. The center offers environmental education programs and nature day camps. Inside are displays on fossils, marine shells, Native American Pottery, and artifacts. There is a children's touch and explore table. Several mounted animals were donated to the center. You can get a map of the trails that run through Turkey Creek Sanctuary and purchase t-shirts and cold water and soda for $1 that support the sanctuary. There are also restrooms and welcoming air conditioning after a hot hike. I enjoyed chatting with the friendly volunteer who provided me with a map and tips on the trails. I really appreciate the volunteers who give so generously of their time. If you plan on hiking at Turkey Creek Sanctuary make time to stop in to the nature center where you can get a drink and some great information.

I don't often leave reviews like this, but I feel it's important to share what happened in hopes…read morethat it prevents another family from going through what mine just did. On September 9th, my family adopted two kittens, Aren and Delle, from this rescue. We were told they had recently recovered from an upper respiratory infection and were now healthy. Unfortunately, less than a month later, our sweet Delle passed away on October 10th from FIP -- a fatal illness that likely developed from an infection that hadn't fully resolved. We followed all the recommended vet care and sought immediate treatment the moment she showed signs of illness, but despite every effort, she declined quickly. It was a deeply traumatic and heartbreaking experience for our family -- and for Aren, her sister, who is now grieving as well. I want to make it clear that I deeply understand and appreciate the mission behind animal rescues and the challenges they face in caring for so many animals in need. My intention in sharing this isn't to criticize, but to hopefully encourage more thorough medical reviews and communication before adoption. Even small improvements in diligence could help prevent another family from being blindsided by such a devastating situation. I emailed the rescue on October 11th, not in anger but simply to inform them of what happened. Unfortunately, I never received a response. Delle was deeply loved and is deeply missed. I truly hope that sharing her story leads to positive changes for future adoptions -- and to more happy, healthy forever homes.
