Was skeptical about this place from outside/location. There's a lot more to it than meets the eyes thou. There is a museum like room with lots of interesting information that both children & adults can enjoy and learn from. then there is the amazing outside area with game fish and a ONE mile trail which takes you through the palm covered swamp area out to beach and back along boardwalks and hard sand covered paths. Would definitely recommend and look forward to going back when in the area again.

Thought this was the most interesting point of interest around Stuart. Such an interesting, little-known piece of history right on the ocean. The employees were knowledgeable and enthusiastic and it had a great little gift shop.

Elliott Museum

Reviewed By SusanMikeTampa

We visited the Elliott Museum when we visited Stuart in November. This is not your typical museum, they have a lot of varied exhibits and there's something for everybody. We saw the beautiful classic car exhibit, also some Christmas displays, sculptures, paintings, circus memorabilia, classic toys, baseball cards and autographed memorabilia, and early 20th century Americana. So many interesting things to see.

Sandsprit Park

Reviewed By snorkelforever6 - Northville, United States

We come to Sandsprit Park every time we are in Florida. It's a great place to watch boats, have a picnic, and watch the birds. Today we finally saw 29 to 30 Monk Parakeets eating on the ground. They were also building nests out of sticks in the palm trees.
