Heard a lot about Talons restaurant at Eagle Harbor Golf Club, it was all good! We had a fabulous dinner and the staff from Marco to Harry took care of us very well. The food was above "par", sorry for the cliché!

My wife and I have visited this facility several times, and it is always a pleasure! We usually venture up to the club level, where we can sit at the bar, enjoy a great meal, and the excitement of live greyhound racing. The betting window is only a few steps away, and the prices on everything are very budget friendly. We love it, and will be back for more!

This park has a real nice little nature trail that is do-able for little ones, I wish they had left some trees for shading on the playground, as in the summer time the equipment is exposed to the full hot Florida sun and can make you feel like you are baking. Nice shaded picnic area for parties.

We recently went here as part of my daughter’s birthday celebration and had so much fun! We had never been and were a bit hesitant as we are not very artistic. We thought our pictures would end up looking pretty bad, but with the artist’s instruction and the other artist walking around assisting, we were actually blown away by the final result! Music is playing the whole time, you can bring your own beverages (adult or otherwise), and we stopped in the middle of our art work for a fun, group game. We had a blast!! Pictures are encouraged and it’s just a really fun way to spend a few hours. We can’t wait to go back!

You won’t find the really big names here – no Michelangelo, no Van Gogh, no Monet or Manet, although there is a very small piece by Rodin. What you will find are some excellent works by artists you probably never heard of but should see. And to help out, there are excellent placards besides each piece with details about the artist and the work, more details than I’ve seen in any museum before. The gardens aren’t open yet – still recovering from hurricane Irma. But you can enjoy lunch in the museum cafe, which is decent. Well worth the time and the $6 cost for seniors, and parking is free.

Great place to walk, run or bike. There are trails off the main trail that give you an off road biking experience. The main trail is paved and a great place to walk or jog with a stroller. With all kinds of plants and trees plus a path down to Black Creek, you will enjoy a wonderful nature experience. At the main parking area there are bathrooms and picnic tables.

I have never had a bad experience there. I go for the massage therapy and all of the staff are friendly and very knowledgeable. They also run a monthly membership, which in essence is just prepaying for a massage at a discounted rate and it also allows you to add additional services throughout the month at discounted rates if you so choose. It's a really awesome deal and well worth the $50/month and for the ladies, they also offer a wide array of spa services as well.

We love going to this course. The staff is absolutely terrific. Friendly and helpful from the manager to the desk to the course. Super people...makes the course that much more appealing. The course is fun and very well maintained. The holes are not close together so, I think, a cart is necessary but I understand that there are some walkers...I have never seen any though. Maybe they play very early or late?

Ever since my favorite day spa closed a few years ago, I've been in search of a suitable happy place to visit. I've now found that happy place! Natural Healing Day Spa exceeded my expectations on almost every level! I've passed by their location often, but never given it much consideration -- maybe because of location, maybe because it doesn't look like much from the outside. Whatever the reason, my reservations about this place are gone! They are situated on a corner near the police station and county park. I had an appointment for a full day of beauty treatment on a Saturday. When I arrived, I was immediately impressed with the warm ambiance and cozy waiting area. I usually don't like steam/sauna experiences, and I laughed when she told me I would be in there for 30 minutes. I almost opted to 'sit that part out', but due to the extreme cleanliness and welcoming setup, I decided to give it a try. They have made a believer out of me!
Erica provided a most relaxing and amazing facial treatment. I liked the fact that she wasn't pushy about the products. She listened to my concerns and habits and detailed her suggestions, but didn't try to push me into a regimen I wouldn't follow. I also liked the fact that there were sample sizes for me to buy instead of committing to a full size product that I may or may not use.
After a nice lunch, Megan applied the body wrap in a professional fashion. She paid particular attention to modesty and propriety during every aspect of the wrap process. When it was time to transfer to the Vichy shower for rinsing, her technique was again exceptional. The only complaint I have about this portion of the treatment is the shower pressure was not as strong as I would have liked - but that is a personal preference issue.
My day finished up with a much-needed tension-releasing massage by Petra. I was already de-stressing from the treatments thus far, so Petra's job was a little easier. She provided just the right amount of attention to each stress area and made sure she didn't agitated painful areas. I will say that she did massage deeper into the muscles than I usually prefer, but she was responsive to my requests for less pressure when needed. She was friendly and proficient! She even offered suggestions for treatment I can try at home a particular area of pain I have.
This spa is by appointment only, so you likely won't find someone there at your beck and call if you just drop in. That's actually ok by me! I literally felt like I was the center of attention the whole day, even during the one overlapping appointment that I noticed. My husband treated me to a full day of being spoiled, and these ladies ensured that I was indeed spoiled. The prices were not near as much as I expected for such personalized services either. I will definitely be back!
