Mostly, we enjoyed our stay. It is a unique kind of place and you really feel close to nature while staying at a hotel. The boat tour was great. Highly recommend. The grounds surrounding the lodge and the springs are beautiful. The lodge is like walking back in time to old Florida. However, although it is charming and authentic, the rooms are old and dated You hear everything through the walls. It’s good they don’t have tvs. Our neighbor listened to music on her phone and it was like she was in the room with us. We ate dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. I wouldn’t eat there again. Food was just ok, service was just ok, price was high. The store and ice cream bar in the lobby are very cute. All in all, I’m glad we went but I’m also glad we only stayed one night. Too loud and a little too tired. It could use some sprucing up. I do recommend if like getting close to nature and seeing how Florida used to be.
Saw lots of gators
Locals swim at the springs in front of the lodge. It gets very crowded on a hot day. Lots of teenagers and kids.

In the middle of a wildlife preserve, the surroundings at The Lodge at Wakulla Springs were beautiful. No TVs in the rooms - which we loved! - Creature from the Black Lagoon was playing on the set in the lobby when we checked in! The dining room was closing as we checked in, but they were able to make us a "take out" meal which was wonderful. Our breakfast the next morning was great, and our server was friendly and very attentive. We were not able to take the boat ride through the springs due to time constraints, but it looked like a lot of fun, judging by the kindergarten class that was taking the tour! Would love to go back someday. [Note to self: Try to get there before dark & be sure to pack sunscreen, bug spray, hat, long sleeve shirt & long pants for return visit -- it really is in the MIDDLE of a nature preserve]

I had a terrific stay at the lodge. My room was clean and comfortable. The grounds were beautiful and it was so nice to walk around after dinner. Meals at the restaurant were delicious. And best of all was the boat ride to see the wildlife along the river.

We loved it here & already planning on coming back. I loved the vintage vibes, the elevator, the boat tour (Collin was awesome! Is he single? Asking for my sister.), jumping into the springs, all the history, the swamp creature stuff, & of course, the gorgeous nature. p.s Order a ginger yip at the soda shop!
