2. Weeks Bay Reserve

A government protected wildlife reserve.
Reviewed By InspiredSailor - Pleasant Lake, United States
We have been here several times and enjoy the rather short walk, on a boardwalk, through a low marshy bog. If you go here in February there will be no Pitcher Plants but you will see last seasons skeletons. Towards the middle to end of March things start to happen if the weather is warm. April should be a great time to visit. We saw Orchids, White Pitcher Plants and Pink ones too by 28 March. I would call this a must see bog and takes 30 minutes unless you want to tarry. The juncture of CR17/US98 to the west and up over the bridge leads you to a bigger Weeks Bay Reserve area. This could keep you occupied for hours. We call this a must see area. Jesse's in Magnolia Springs and Papa Daves's BBQ on 98 are good places to try.

What an interesting house! When built it was, I imagine, in the middle of nowhere. Now, it is right next to an office building. Just visualizing a man building this by hand and living in it, well, it is amazing. Be sure to read the book, The Poet of Tolstoy Park, by Sonny Brewer, after your visit.
