Little River Springs

On a sweltering hot day, Little River Springs is a family favorite. This spring is more developed than others in our area and has more visitors. It is the perfect place for folks of all ages to cool off.

It's like a natural water park with a place for swimming and a large area for wading and splashing by little ones.


We're in the middle of an exceptional drought, so the water level is low right now.  

But, there's still a lot of water from the spring crashing into the Suwannee River.

When the water level is high, the spring rises right up to these steps.

The deepest part seems to glow from some mysterious light. 

The "little river" runs from the spring to the Suwannee, hence the name.
