The 150 acres of Bulow Plantation Ruins stand as a monument to the rise and fall of sugar plantations in East Florida. In 1836, the Second Seminole War swept away the prosperous Bulow Plantation.

This site was once part of a sugar plantation owned by David Levy Yulee. Yulee was a member of the Territorial Legislative Council, and he served in the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate after Florida statehood.

The Addison Blockhouse, a small picturesque coquina rock ruin, is located on what was once an 18th-century plantation built by John Moultrie.

Bulow Creek protects nearly 5,600 acres, more than 1,500 of which are submerged lands. The reigning tree of the park is the Fairchild Oak, one of the largest live oak trees in the South.
