Another place I wanted to tell you about is the CREW Land & Water Trust. It is located in Collier County and can be accessed by SR 82 or Corkscrew Road south. Beautiful setting to enjoy the "real" Florida woods. You have your regular flatwoods with palmettos and pines and then you have oaks, marsh, slough and more flatwoods. The way it is set up, you pass through each stage gradually and enjoy the best of them all. Of course the mosquitos were bad, with the rain we have been getting but with the right repellant they were bearable. Spring or Fall would be GREAT for taking your time and spending the day. They have wide trails mown and some boardwalks through the swamp and slough area. Some of the trails are pretty primative but that also adds to the beauty of it. Definitely worth the hike and we will for sure be returning to see what we missed and revisit what we saw.
