Tips from locals
An "enchanted forest," primitive species of fish relatively unchanged over the of years, towering bald cypress trees with massive trunks, luxuriant growths of Spanish moss; this is Merchants Millpond.
Hiking, canoeing, kayaking. Museum quality exhibits. Visitor center. Picnic area.
Enjoy hiking, canoeing or kayaking! The visitors' center is a lovely place to learn about the Millpond's history. Lots of great trails and you may even see an alligator or two!
