Forever Florida - Crescent J Ranch
Forever Florida, together with the Crescent J Ranch, comprise a 4,700-acre cattle ranch and nature preserve combining "Old Florida" charm with an exciting and educational opportunity to view native animals and plants in their natural environment. Come experience a Florida pioneer's life and the Sunshine State takes on a whole new meaning!

The Crescent J Ranch is a working cattle ranch and has the largest herds of registered Cracker Cattle and Horses in the world! “Cracker" Cattle and Horses are descended from stock brought from Spain in the early 16th Century. It's 100% real (not plastic) and there's a lot to see and do for all ages.

Horseback Safaris
Standard one-hour, two-hour or three-hour horseback safaris are available daily. Call-in reservations are recommended in order to assure that the horses are ready for you.

A favorite with visitors is the two-night "Crescent J Cattle Drive Weekend Safari," which includes some training in Florida Cowhunter skills of ridin', ropin' and cow cuttin'. (Florida cattlemen weren't "cowboys" because hunting those wild Spanish-descent cattle in Florida's woods and swamps was a man's job, they said.) Choice of campground depends on weather, type of group and recommendation of the riding instructors.

Another favorite is similar, but shorter – an Overnight Trail Ride Safari combined with a next-day "Rawhide Roundup." More time is spent riding the wilderness trails of Forever Florida and learning about nature, less on cowpoke skills.

Florida Eco-Safaris
A fascinating look at Wild Florida, for families and groups wanting to leave Orlando's theme parks far behind. Spend a fun-filled day enjoying Eco-Safaris, Horseback Safaris, Nature Trails, Pony Rides, Petting Zoo, and just relaxing and rocking on the veranda. Country-dine for Brunch or Lunch in the beautiful one-of-a-kind Cypress Restaurant or outside on the Heron Deck.

Directions
Take US 192 East to Holopaw, and turn south on US 441. Drive seven and one-half miles, and Forever Florida will be on the east (left) side of the highway.
