I've been busy outdoors this year and enjoy finding new trails to check out. I really like Alpine…read moreGroves. It has really cool history to check out. And a fantastic paved trail! There is also a wonderful playground. And a fishing pier! My favorite part though might be the benches right at the water... a perfect spot to sit and watch a sunset. Also if you're big on bird watching, there was a barred owl hanging out as well as a variety of other cool birds! The dog water fountain needs a little bit of a scrub but love that it's available! And six a cute dedication.

This is an adorable park. There is a trail that if you complete it twice, you can complete a 5k. We…read morewent later in the day to avoid any crowds. Just a few people walking dogs and a few bird watchers. This is part of the Floris Birding Trail and we got a glimpse of a Barred Owl! Pretty cool! Take bug spray because you are on a paved path through the woods. There is a small playground as well.

What a neat little hidden treasure! They've got some lovely trails in here and incredible views…read more There is a kayak launch as well. And loads of different types of camping/cabin rentals available. And a pool! This day I went just to walk the trails and it's amazing how you can feel so far in the woods while still being basically in a neighborhood. The trails aren't very long but plenty to see along the way. I liked the tree house trail and seeing the neat treehouses you can camp in. And the views over the river are gorgeous down the jungle trail. If you need to get out to touch grass, highly suggest this spot!

Such a fun time last night at Camp Chowenwaw!…read more We stayed in one of the treehouses, number 5 to be specific. There was so much wildlife to be heard throughout the night including owls, woodpeckers, and what we think were crickets or maybe lubbers. The bathrooms and shower areas were very clean for a park/camping area. There are different trails to explore along the path to the treehouses, which we didn't have a chance to do. We suggest bringing a sheet or blanket to cover your mattresses. Each treehouse has 2 twin sized bunk beds (total of 4 mattresses). They are VERY uncomfortable, so if you need extra support, you should probably bring a mattress topper/padding. The grills were pretty clean, just need some dusting off before cooking, though, nothing out of the ordinary. Upkeep for everything was great!

We went yesterday while it was raining. We compared it to our normal stop in Texas, where we would…read moretake our kiddo to play. This park hands-down beats that one. We got to walk on the dock and saw soft turtles we also saw a terrapin and a fish a few actually. My kiddo did not want to leave and was so excited to be there and out and playing. I for one was really excited to share that section of my childhood that I vividly remember with my kiddo. The first of many amazing memories to be made

This CDD is a great place to live - it has a little taste of the live, work, play atmosphere as it…read moreis located right by the 220 shopping center. ATT has an office building on the plantation grounds. Fleming Island High and Thunderbolt Elementary are also on the grounds, and are two highly rated Clay county schools. A few other businesses are on the grounds of the plantation, like Island Life Grille, but most places are just north in the shopping area of 220. Fleming Island Cinema 12 (Carmike) is an immediate neighbor. The staff at the clubhouse are very courteous and helpful for any of your needs. The organizers send out a monthly "Living in Fleming Island Plantation" paper that includes the events calendar and highlights local businesses. Throughout the year there are mini parades for kids to get involved in and community get togethers at the splash park or club house. Two pools are on the grounds, one with a lap pool and one with a water slide. There are tennis courts, basketball courts, picnic pavilions and a play ground by the club house. There is a large green space behind the splash park, but no pets or bikes/scooters/blades are allowed on the space or the sidewalk so I'm not quite sure why this space exists. Perhaps for ultimate frisbee games... The CDD is just that, a CDD. There is a hefty CDD fee annually in addition to a small HOA depending on which subdivision you live in. The CDD puts those dollars to work though keeping the landscaping clean and up to date. The place is beautiful, though I do need to contact those in charge about a very rough road outside our division. If you want to be involved, you can run for a position on the CDD board. All in all this is a great place to live with ample amenities to suit just about everyone's needs. A bubble in the universe - you really never have to leave if you don't want to!
