After spending the day in Bongoland inside Dunlawton Sugar Mill Gardens, I'm only left wondering why I didn't visit sooner.
Not only is it free and a lovely outdoor activity, but it's a particularly great attraction for families. I thought that the children's garden, dinosaurs, human sundial, and gnome homes would be great entertainment for families with young kids.
Similarly, I'm now recommending a visit to all of my garden enthusiast, history buff, and photographer friends who will certainly appreciate the combination of tropical plants, kitschy sculptures, and sugar mill remains.
But it's also a must for anyone interested in discovering classic, quirky old Florida. The park costs nothing to enter, is easy to find, and is guaranteed to be unique.
