This was a little hard to review...the event was a Holiday Extravaganza (not the facility of…read moreJulington Creek Plantations) and if you were a family there with your kids...I'm sure it was great! Free pic with Santa, free coloring, cookies/candy canes, free face painting and balloons BUT if you were one of the 30 or so vendors... we had a very slow to "no" night because no one appeared to come to start their "buy local and handmade gifts for the holidays"! People were polite, the kids were cute in their Christmas attire but the parents were almost sheepish looking at the vendors items like "We aren't here to buy anything " so I think maybe just offer the free event to the local residents and not invite (who paid) vendors to come; the community will still like it.

Fantastic food and service. If you are looking for Fresh Catch of The Day this is the place. Our…read morefamily had such a great meal

Pet It Forward/Gina deserves the award of the year from our household! We have a precious…read more(ShihTzu) little girl named Princess who desperately needed to be seen by a VET ASAP because I thought she was having a seizure & have bloodwork done due to something she got into. Frantically I called Gina & to my surprise she started making calls for me. Not only did she help find somewhere affordable to take Princess, but stayed in communication w/me the entire trip as well from beginning to end. Even during the VET'S actual visit, to ensure that we received excellent care @11pm at night. Which we did & Princess was able to come home with/a clean bill of health after the scariest night ever! Without Gina walking me through this, idk what I would have done. It's not often that you call a complete stranger & the person on the other end, ends up being an Angel! Gina words truly cannot express to you what you've done for our family. I will certainly not ever forget & will shout from the rooftops that there is certainly still hope for our pets through folks like YOU. P.s. Pretty sure you'll be wearing a cape when we finally meet! #petitforward #shihtzuluv #angelsindisguise

The animals are well taken care of, the people working there are so nice and helpful and booking a highland cow cuddling session was amazing. You can even stay on site if you want that real "outdoorsy" experience - but it's perfect even for a quick day trip. Can't wait to come back again!

The best experience for a minication. I was lucky enough to not know where I was going for my…read morebirthday and it was the perfect surprise! (My wife did great!) Not only is the location a perfect portal to a different type of Florida , but the wagons are all the way in the back so it's perfect privacy. There's also a tent outside to sit and watch pigs take a bath in the fountain. The wagon room we got was the Piggies room! Perfect decor and amenities inside(towels/shampoo/conditioner/tissues/coffee mugs /even games!) Huge bathroom with incredible shower.There is ac but we spent most of the time with the screen door and bathroom window open & it felt great. Included inside:mini fridge, toaster, coffee/tea (included),microwave and a small heater. Plenty of plugs to charge & a full length mirror. We love that there was no tv because we got to watch highland cows instead !! We also got to sleep to rain and it was so peaceful especially waking up every morning to new friends like pigs and sheep! We also saw: 4 highland cows!! , 2 different types of pigs, a family of sheep (+Anya the sassiest girl), cats, dogs, goats, turkeys (that like hugs but scared meee), guinea fowls, chickens and hens, mini horses and a peacock that sounds like Kevin from UP in the nighttime !! All the staff were super friendly including miss Elaine! Truly an incredible place to visit and get to feed pigs all day.

I'd have to say that this location has been the best by far. First off, no smoking inside! That is the #1 in my book when I look for places to visit when it comes to karaoke. The place is very clean and all of the members and their guest were very welcoming to me. The bartender John was working all by himself behind the bar (not that it was super packed), but he had a smile on his face the entire time I was there. If I were going to choose a local lodge, this place would definitely be the place I'd make join.
