Location And Setting Overview - The Silver Springs Advantage
Your Gateway to Florida's Natural Wonders: This 0.23-Acre lot sits in the Silver Springs/Ocklawaha area of Marion County, one of Florida's most naturally beautiful and historically significant regions. The area takes its name from Silver Springs-one of the largest artesian spring formations in the world and a Florida icon since the 1800S when early tourists traveled by steamboat to witness its crystal-clear waters and glass-bottom boat tours.
Today, Silver Springs State Park preserves this natural wonder as a state park, providing free access to hiking trails, kayaking, wildlife viewing, and the famous glass-bottom boat tours that have operated continuously since 1878. The spring pumps an astounding 550 million gallons of water daily, creating a river so clear you can see fish swimming 30+ feet below the surface. This isn't just a nearby attraction-it's part of your neighborhood, accessible for weekend adventures, morning kayak trips, or evening wildlife watching.
The Ocklawaha River, one of Florida's most scenic and ecologically important waterways, flows through this region connecting to numerous lakes and eventually joining the St. Johns River. This historic river was once slated for damming as part of the Cross Florida Barge Canal project, but environmental advocates successfully preserved it, maintaining its wild character and creating excellent opportunities for kayaking, canoeing, fishing, and exploring untouched Florida wilderness.
Proximity to Ocala National Forest: Your property is positioned near the western edge of the Ocala National Forest-Florida's oldest national forest established in 1908, encompassing 430,000 acres of longleaf pine forests, cypress swamps, crystal springs, and pristine lakes. This vast wilderness provides endless recreation: hiking the Florida National Scenic Trail, swimming in dozens of crystal-clear springs maintaining constant 72°F temperatures year-round, fishing for bass and panfish in countless lakes and rivers, hunting for deer, turkey, and wild hogs during regulated seasons, camping in developed campgrounds or primitive backcountry sites, off-roading on hundreds of miles of trails for ATVs and dirt bikes, birdwatching with opportunities to see hundreds of species, and wildlife viewing including deer, turkeys, black bears, and alligators.
Living near the forest means you have Florida's premiere outdoor recreation area as your backyard-accessible whenever you want adventure, solitude, or connection with nature.

The Silver Springs Outdoor Lifestyle - Your Recreation Paradise
Living near Silver Springs means having some of Florida's premier outdoor recreation literally minutes from your doorstep. This isn't just proximity to parks-it's immersion in one of America's greatest natural playgrounds.
Silver Springs State Park - Your Neighborhood Treasure: Just minutes away, Silver Springs State Park offers world-class recreation and natural beauty that people travel from around the globe to experience. As a local resident, this becomes your regular playground:
Glass-Bottom Boat Tours: The iconic tours operating since 1878 glide over crystal-clear springs where you can see 80+ feet down through water clearer than most swimming pools. Watch fish, turtles, and aquatic vegetation in stunning detail. Tours run daily year-round and never get old-each season brings different wildlife and water clarity.
Kayaking and Canoeing: Launch from the park and paddle pristine waters. The Silver River downstream offers excellent paddling through untouched Florida wilderness with guaranteed wildlife sightings-alligators, turtles, wading birds, and the famous Silver Springs monkeys (descendants of releases from old jungle movies filmed here). Upstream spring runs provide calm, clear water perfect for beginners or peaceful afternoon paddles.
Hiking and Nature Trails: Miles of trails wind through various Florida ecosystems-pine flatwoods, hardwood hammocks, river swamps, and scrub communities. Trails range from easy walks to longer hikes, all offering wildlife viewing opportunities. The park hosts guided nature walks and educational programs regularly.
Wildlife Viewing: Silver Springs is famous for wildlife. The resident rhesus monkey population (controversial but present) attracts attention, but you'll also see abundant alligators, numerous turtle species, wading birds (herons, egrets, ibis), ospreys and bald eagles, otters occasionally, and during winter months, manatees seeking the springs' warm waters. Serious birders can observe dozens of species throughout the year.
Fort King Historic Site: Connected to Silver Springs, Fort King preserves Second Seminole War history with living history demonstrations, historic buildings, and interpretive programs providing Florida history education.
Museum and Educational Programs: The Silver River Museum offers fascinating exhibits about the springs' natural history, Native American heritage, early tourism history, and ecology. Regular educational programs for all ages make this a great resource for families or anyone interested in Florida's natural and cultural heritage.
Ocala National Forest - Endless Wilderness Adventures: Adjacent to or very near your property, the Ocala National Forest's 430,000 acres provide virtually unlimited outdoor recreation:
Swimming and Springs: The forest contains numerous first-magnitude springs with crystal-clear water maintaining constant 72°F year-round-perfect for swimming any season. Alexander Springs offers a large swimming area with beach, bathhouse, and camping. Juniper Springs features beautiful natural swimming and historic millhouse. Salt Springs provides unique mineral-rich waters. Dozens of smaller springs offer more secluded swimming. These natural pools are far superior to any manufactured water park-pristine, free, and incredibly beautiful.
Fishing: Some of Florida's best freshwater fishing is found here. Countless lakes, rivers, creeks, and ponds hold largemouth bass, bluegill, shellcracker, speckled perch (crappie), and catfish. Lake Kerr, Lake Eaton, Lake George, and the Ocklawaha and St. Johns Rivers provide excellent fishing year-round. Launch a bass boat, paddle a kayak to hidden coves, or bank fish accessible spots-options are endless for anglers of all skill levels and budgets.
Hiking and Backpacking: The Florida National Scenic Trail traverses the forest for over 60 miles, offering day hikes or multi-day backpacking adventures through diverse ecosystems. Well-maintained trails wind through pine flatwoods, hardwood swamps, scrub communities, and along crystal creeks. Shorter nature trails at various recreation areas provide easier options. Backpacking here offers true wilderness solitude rarely found in Florida.
Hunting: Managed hunting seasons provide opportunities for white-tailed deer, wild turkey, feral hogs, and small game. Deer season runs late summer through winter with archery, muzzleloader, and general gun seasons. Spring turkey hunting challenges experienced hunters. Hog hunting is year-round with no bag limits. Multiple Wildlife Management Areas within the forest provide diverse hunting opportunities.
Off-Road Vehicle Trails: Hundreds of miles of trails for ATVs, dirt bikes, and 4x4 vehicles wind through the forest. Popular riding areas include Paisley Woods and trails near recreation areas. Forest roads and trails range from easy maintained roads to challenging single-track requiring skill and proper equipment. Weekend rides reveal hidden springs, ponds, and backcountry areas few people ever see.
Camping: Options range from developed campgrounds with electricity and bathhouses to primitive campsites requiring hiking or paddling to reach. Backcountry camping allows multi-day adventures deep in the wilderness. Developed campgrounds at springs and recreation areas provide family-friendly options with amenities while remaining immersed in nature.
Paddling Paradise: The Silver Springs/Ocklawaha area is arguably Florida's premier paddling destination. The Ocklawaha River offers excellent multi-day paddling trips through pristine wilderness. Silver Springs and its tributaries provide shorter paddles suitable for beginners. Dozens of other creeks, spring runs, and river sections offer variety for every skill level. Many paddlers keep kayaks or canoes ready for spontaneous after-work paddles or weekend adventures.
Year-Round Outdoor Calendar: Each season brings unique opportunities. Spring offers turkey hunting, wildflower blooms, comfortable hiking weather, and active fish. Summer is perfect for spring swimming in constant 72°F water, early morning fishing, and camping under warm nights. Fall brings comfortable temperatures, lower humidity, excellent fishing, and beginning of hunting seasons. Winter offers delightful 70°F days perfect for hiking, paddling, and wildlife viewing, plus manatees at Silver Springs.
