This may be just the right facility for you and your family. For information on the Hammock House please call (352) 383-7657.
Rock Springs Run is a great place to enjoy some of the Real Florida. There are extensive trails that can be used by hikers, mountain bikers and horses. The trails transverse through many habitat communities and provide opportunities to observe wildlife in their environment. At the horse barn visitors can enjoy a guided horse ride, or if you have your own horses we have restrooms, stables, and horse camping area.
Anyone visiting an outdoor area has a responsibility to not leave behind waste, ensure fires are extinguished, and not destroy any of the resources. Help us protect and preserve our managed lands.
We look forward to the opportunity to serve you and your family.
- Warren Poplin, Park Manager
