I’ve visited numerous plantations, but never one in a National Park. While some of the postings located around the grounds and in the kitchen provided some information, the level of detail was scant. There was a fair amount of information about slave trade including diagrams showing how men, women and children were packed into the ships. Disturbing statistics told of... More

Lots to see here and spend time relaxing on the bench near the canal. The property is large enough to have private moments with the family taking pictures and just enjoying the scenery.

We had never been to a plantation before so it was a very interesting place to visit. We however did not plan ahead so we missed the only tour of the day - which would have made the visit way more worthwhile. There are informational signs around the grounds for self-guided tours.

Well preserved and very informative - amazing how people lived in this days. The information was also very extensive and the site is well worth visiting.

Quick side trip, yet educational in reference to the slavery in N. Florida, etc.....Good place for a picnic that will only take you and hour or two to tour everything....Interesting road getting there so don't go in a comfortable as it will be a bit dusty.....

Awe-inspiring life of Anna Kingsley. She was an amazing woman. It was so good to walk around the well-preserved grounds and imagine what the fields must have looked like when the plantation was in action exporting sea-island cotton and indigocfrom its own docks to Europe.

A eye opener when you see the real conditions slaves lived in and the backbraking work they did. A great place to visit and see the contrast between the free rich and the poor enslaved. It is a must see if you are in the area.

My family really enjoyed Kingsley Plantation. It was very educational for all of us. We enjoyed the drive there but it is somewhat remote. My kids found a baby gopher tortoise they almost stepped on. They were so excited about it and have talked about it for days. Although the main house is only open on the weekend with reservations... More

It only took us about an hour to look at everything. It's too bad the main house isn't open to see. That being said, the plantation was still interesting to view and the road to get there was pretty cool.
