Marker 48 Brewing

Reviewed By NetteAtSea

Interested in quality crafted beer? Look no further. Marker 48 Brewing is an excellent place to quench your taste buds. Their variety of crafted beers offers a full spectrum. While it's a self-service place, the staff are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The atmosphere has a unique rustic flare with a spacious beer garden outback. It offers tall barrel tables under bright red umbrellas to protect you from the hot Florida sun or a tent with comfortable coaches for larger groups. Oh did I mention the restored wagon bus that sits 4-6 people? It's such a neat place. Let's not forget the artwork display for your viewing pleasure. There's always a corner for you to enjoy your beer while listening to the tunes of a live band or jazz player and the opportunity to order delicious items from the food truck.

This is certainly worth a trip. Beautiful Ranch out in the middle of a State Forest. Take some snacks or a picnic basket with you. You can taste the Whiskey, Rum & Shine they make from all organic ingredients. And of course buy some. They have a nice outside bar with different wines, domestic and craft beers. Great outside seating areas to enjoy a drink or 2 and socialize. Horses and Donkey to pet it you'd like. It's a long bumpy 5 mile drive on a gravel road off hwy 19. We almost turned around but persisted and made it. Very happy we did and plan on going back.

What a wonderful, hidden gem! The ambience and wine selection are second to none. Having been to the historic and renowned Biltmore in North Carolina, I can genuinely say that this winery is more than comparable. I had such a wonderful evening enjoying the wine, landscape, and pizza from the featured food truck. If you haven't ventured to this institution yet, you're truly missing out! The price is right and you will not regret it!

Tom Varn Park

Reviewed By Arnieonthego - Sea Isle City, United States

We were in Brooksville to get our second Covid shot and wanted to get a little exercise before lunch and the shot. I found this park on Tripadvisor and thought we would give it a shot There is a nice paved trail that meanders around a pond and a nice tree lined area. We extended our walk by going to the end of the trail and walking on an old golf course that had a paved loop of about one mile. It was hilly but very nice. This was perfect for a short walk.

McKethan Lake Nature Trail

Reviewed By JBVette74 - Brooksville, United States

I'm writing this review with the intent of praising this park but yet keeping it saved as a 'hidden gem'. Each visit for me has been relaxing and calming. No bling, no zoom! Just a less traveled path. It's a fairly small park, I guess that helps it from becoming a busy place. The little lake is tranquil. There are some short trails to enjoy, along with a small walkway bridge. I'm content to sit at one of the rustic tables and just listen to the sounds of....nothing. Peace and quiet. Ahhhhhhh!

Good food at the “Bakery”. The Phylli Cheese Steaks there are excellent! Found many nice gifts for my wife. Found electronic Bluetooth gadgets and lots of tools. We look forward to coming back the next time we are down from Rochester NY.
