The Suwannee River Cracker Homestead is a world class property with 6,000+/- feet of high banked river frontage and no wetlands.

This property has been drawing the current owners' family and friends together for holidays and reunions for over 20 years. The complex around the main house includes several guest houses, a horse barn, a cook shelter by the river, gardens, and vineyards. There is plenty of room for guests to spread out between the houses. With endless activities, there are many memories to be made here, and it is extremely rare to be able to own a stretch of the Suwannee River like this.

The state has shown extreme concern that Suwannee River Cracker Homestead would be developed as it is the only private inholding in several thousand acres of parks and springs. They wanted desperately to buy the development rights from the seller. This was the special piece that was held out of the state offerings.

This riverfront property has rolling pastures, huge live oaks (too many to count), and a delightful spring display of color between the dogwoods and azaleas. The deer and turkeys are practically tame and dozens flock between here and the park.

A weathered old trail showing the turn-off to the historic road that ran between Pensacola and St. Augustine is just off the driveway into Suwannee River Ranch. You can almost imagine yourself back in that time period as you approach the authentic cracker cabins and buildings made from hand hewn Cypress. They look like they could be straight from the set of The Yearling or a filming of the book A Land Remembered.

This property is one of the most special opportunities any way you look at it. In addition, various state agencies have been eyeing this land for decades and it is very likely there is money available for a sale of the development rights with everything else being retained. One must realize that the entire 1.2 miles of frontage is high and dry and a developer's dream.
