Geocache Description:


These caches where originally place by a great family so after talking decided that it would be great to bring them back.

 

The park itself is lovely. There's several different playgrounds right near the community center. Each has different features, but they all have top notch equipment and safety features like that bouncy rubber ground to protect your kids from falls. There's even a fountain to run through and cool off an a hot day. For the more athletically inclined, there's tons of basketball and tennis courts and even a horse barn on the edge of the property (it is Plantation Acres, after all).

With all these great features, I still have to say my favorite part of this park is the walking trails surrounding the lake. The trail is probably about a mile long, and winds its way through the sawgrass and on wooden bridges over the water. There's plenty of nooks and crannies where you can rest on benches and enjoy the view. For the sharp eyed ones out there, you can usually spot large herons, fish, and even turtles in the lake. If you close your eyes and concentrate, you can almost imagine that you're in the middle of Everglades, it feels that isolated at times. The sunsets from here are just spectacular.

And now there is a trail of caches to enjoy. All caches are matchstick containers except for one. For the life of me, I can't remember which one it was. I guess we will just wait for the DNF's. Some are high, some are low, and some are wide. But all should be fun.
