Cross Florida Greenway

Cross Florida Greenway

Provided by: Sleep Inn & Suites

View Service

Details:

In the 1930s, federal officials decided that a canal should be built across the state of Florida to allow a quicker route for ships traveling between the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. When the plan for the Cross Florida Barge Canal was halted due to environmental concerns, the land stood vacant until the 1990s when it was set into conservation by President George Bush. Named the Marjorie Harris Carr Florida Greenway in honor of one of the key environmentalists who protested against the canal, the Greenway has become one of Central Florida’s key natural attractions.

The Greenway is home to a number of outdoor activities including equestrian and off-road biking trails. It is an area of extreme environmental diversity that reaches from the Gulf of Mexico to the St. Johns River on over 110 miles of land. With rivers winding throughout both ends of the Greenway, swamplands and a land bridge (pictured above) located near our Ocala hotel that crosses over Interstate 75, the Cross Florida Greenway is the perfect destination for all outdoor enthusiasts.

The Cross Florida Greenway Land Bridge
Anybody driving along I-75 in Ocala may not easily realize that they are driving under a very unique landmark in Florida. Formally opened in June 2000, the Cross Florida Greenway Land Bridge is considered to be the first modern land bridge in the United States of America. Glancing from beneath, it will certainly look like any other bridges traversing the busy highway. Things will only become apparent and reveal themselves once you step into the marvelous structure itself or view it from above as seen from the aerial photos taken by Mr. Nearous Sizemore or Ocala, Florida.
Technically speaking, the Cross Florida Greenway Land Bridge is just a giant concrete planter hanging above Interstate 75. Holding tons of organic materials and a watering system not normally found on regular bridges, the Land Bridge serves as both crossing platform and a nourishment container for animals, trees and plants. As a recreational bridge, the Cross Florida Greenway Land Bridge is a favorite destination by hikers, mountain bikers and equestrians. It is not uncommon though to see some wildlife cross the bridge from time to time.

Gypsy Gold Vanner Horses

Provided by: Sleep Inn & Suites

View Service

Details:

When Dennis and Cindy Thompson stopped to admire Shire Horses while on a business trip in England, they had an encounter that would forever change their lives and the horse breeding industry. After spotting an incredibly beautiful and spectacular-looking black and white horse, the Thompsons had to have a second look.

After discovering the magnificent horse belonged to a nearby caravan of gypsies, the couple entered into a world few have seen. This group of nomadic people was in fact cross-breeding horses to create a truly unique, and spectacular breed now known as Gypsy Vanner Horses. The Thompsons were so inspired by what they encountered they decided to bring their new finding back to America. In fact, that first horse they saw became the first horse bred by gypsies in the world to be recognized as a breed.
Visitors to the Gypsy Gold Farm in beautiful Marion County can see the horse that started it all, Cushti Bok. The stallion was named after the gypsy translation for “good luck”, which says it all. In 1997, Cushti Bok became the first Gypsy Vanner stallion in North America, and the legend began.
The Gypsy Gold Farm is part of an event in equestrian history that is unique to the Marion County area. This is something any horse enthusiast staying at the Sleep Inn and Suites Ocala does not want to miss. Whether you are a breeder, an equestrian or just interested in learning more about an exceptional piece of history and a beautiful breed of animals, the Gypsy Vanner Horses will not disappoint you.

This museum is home to over 75 racing cars including hot-rods, muscle cars and more, as well as racing memorabilia and history.

The name Don Garlits is well known by hot-rod fanatics all over the world, and for good reason. With 17 World Championship Titles, Don has made his mark on the drag racing industry. The racing legend has accomplished many feats during his time as the “King of the Dragsters” including winning the National Hot Rod Association, N.H.R.A., Nationals eight times, receiving the title of the number one drag racer in the last 50 years by the N.H.R.A. and branding his own line of record-breaking racecars, the Swamp Rats.

Named to celebrate Don Garlits southern roots, his collection of 34 Swamp Rats has been breaking records since he manufactured the very first one. The racecars have broken an astonishing amount of previously recorded top speeds, being the first automobiles in the N.H.R.A. to go over 170, 180, 200, 240, 250, 260 and 270 mph throughout the years. One of his finest creations, Swamp Rat XXX has been so celebrated in the racing community it is on display at the Smithsonian Museum of American History.

While guests to cannot view this spectacular piece of machinery, many of the other Swamp Rats are on display as well as other displays of automobile history and innovation. Because of his knowledge and dedication, Don Garlits is the authority on automobiles in the area, and his museum is a must-see for those staying in The Ocala area! 4

40 Fathom Grotto

Details:

The 40 Fathom Grotto is a premier Commercial Diving Academy located in Ocala, Florida. This stunningly beautiful, natural sinkhole is the only place in the eastern United States where you can dive over 200 feet below the water’s surface while still remaining in open water. The significant depth and breadth of this feature has made it world famous as one of the best dive training centers on the planet.
The underground river that feeds the grotto provides a constant supply of clean, clear water, perfect for diving. Water in the grotto is about 72 degrees Fahrenheit at the surface and 68 degrees at depth. The sheltered nature of the grotto means that waters are largely unaffected by wind, waves, tides, or currents and therefore allow for perfect diving conditions year-round. Furthermore, man made structures, such as docks and walkways, enhance the grotto and allow for comfortable access into the sinkhole.
Special bubbler vents aerate the water at the dive site to clear away duckweed and other surface debris. Once submerged, descend through this freshwater paradise to explore Pleistocene-era marine fossils over 30 million years old, present in the limestone walls of the grotto. Once you reach the bottom of the sinkhole, you will encounter fun artifacts like antique cars, an abandoned airplane, and sunken boat wrecks.
The 40 Fathom Grotto works with both experienced, certified divers and guides but also offers dive training programs for new divers. The training can be completed in as little as two days at the grotto provided you complete online training in advance of your visit to the grotto.
40 Fathom Grotto provides a full-service experience and has parking, changing and restroom facilities on-site. Additionally, a dive store provides state-of-the-art dive equipment for purchase. Tank refills are available and include Air, Nitrox, Oxygen, Helium, Trimix, and custom blends.

Big Daddy Don Garlits Inducted Into the British Drag Racing Hall of Fame

We extend our congratulations to Don Garlits and his family on this wonderful accomplishment. The British Drag Racing Hall of Fame accredits Garlits as the person to put drag racing on the map in Britain. ”By most measures, Don ‘Big Daddy’ Garlits is the greatest and most successful drag racer ever,” said the Hall of Fame. We wholeheartedly agree!
For motor-heads staying in the Ocala area, the Sleep Inn and Suites Ocala hotel may just be the perfect place to be. Drag racing legend “Big Daddy”Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing is just across the street from the property. The museum is home to over 75 racing cars including hot-rods, muscle cars and more, as well as racing memorabilia and history.
The name Don Garlits is well known by hot-rod fanatics all over the world, and for good reason. With 17 World Championship Titles, Don has made his mark on the drag racing industry. The racing legend has accomplished many feats during his time as the “King of the Dragsters” including winning the National Hot Rod Association, N.H.R.A., Nationals eight times, receiving the title of the number one drag racer in the last 50 years by the N.H.R.A. and branding his own line of record-breaking racecars, the Swamp Rats.
Named to celebrate Don Garlits southern roots, his collection of 34 Swamp Rats has been breaking records since he manufactured the very first one. The racecars have broken an astonishing amount of previously recorded top speeds, being the first automobiles in the N.H.R.A. to go over 170, 180, 200, 240, 250, 260 and 270 mph throughout the years. One of his finest creations, Swamp Rat XXX has been so celebrated in the racing community it is on display at the Smithsonian Museum of American History.
While guests to Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing cannot view this spectacular piece of machinery, many of the other Swamp Rats are on display as well as other displays of automobile history and innovation. Because of his knowledge and dedication, Don Garlits is the authority on automobiles in the area, and his museum is a must-see for those staying, right next-door, at the Sleep Inn and Suites Ocala-Belleview.

Phone: 352-685-2048

A favorite spot in the Ocala National Forest is the Salt Springs Recreation Area with its constant 74° Fahrenheit waters gushing from vertical fissures from deep within the earth. Believing that the springs provide medicinal healing powers, many people flock to this area to swim and be one with nature. The Salt Springs derived its name from the fact that the spring has trace quantities of potassium, magnesium and sodium salts that give the waters a slight salinity. Other activities in this recreation area include boating, snorkeling, camping, nature watching and fishing.

The Salt Spring flows from an underground aquifer, down a short river path and into Lake George, the second largest lake in the state of Florida. Canoe rentals are available at the Slat Springs Recreation Area Marina and you can travel along the path of the spring and observe Florida’s lush tropical foliage. A simple boat ramp is also available at the recreation area.

Ample camping is available at the Slat Springs Recreation with 160 spots available including both RV spots with hook ups and also simple spots for tent camping. Picnic tables, drinking water and restroom facilities are available in these camping areas. You can even make reservations for camping spots online by clicking here, or you can pamper yourself at our hotel with a heated pool, jacuzzi suite, complimentary breakfast, and wireless internet before spending the day in the forest.

Santos Bike Trail

Details:

Mountain biking may not be the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of activities Central Florida has to offer, but the Santos Bike Trails in Marion County provide a great area for bicycling enthusiasts.
Located on a large section of the Cross Florida Greenway, Santos Bike Trails offer the best mountain biking in the state. With over 30 miles of winding trails, through pine forests and oak hammocks, visitors can spend hours traversing the Central Florida terrain. With three levels of difficulty from beginner to expert, the trails can challenge even the most avid bicyclist. One of the more difficult trails available, which attracts many expert riders, navigates through an old mining quarry.
While the landscape is fairly level, especially for mountain biking, the sandy soil makes even the most modest hill a challenge to climb. The trails can be easily accessed through the Santos Trailhead, which is just off of Highway 441 in Belleview, Florida. At the trailhead is Santos Bike Shop, where guests can purchase gear and refreshments and learn about up coming biking events.
While biking is obviously the main attraction of the Santos Trails, there are also hiking and equestrian trails, as well as a campground with water and electrical hook-ups. Exploring the wild side of Central Florida is one of the best ways to enjoy the area, and a day of exhilarating biking on the Santos Trails is a great way to do so.
If you are visiting the trail and need to rent a bike, repair a bike, purchase cycling accessories, or get info on local trails and maps, please contact theSantos Trailhead Bike Shop located right off the Santos Trail on highway 441.

There is no better way to cool off from the heat of the hot summer sun than taking a dip into one of Florida’s waterways, and the Rainbow River, fed by the sparkling clear, cold waters of Rainbow Springs, is one of the best places to do so. There are two parks available for guests looking to access the river: K.P. Hole County Park and Rainbow Springs State Park.

Both parks have picnic areas, fully accessible bathrooms, and swimming, tubing, kayaking, canoeing and diving. There are some differences between the two parks that are important to note depending on what you want to do. If you are interested in tubing down the river, the K.P. Hole Park offers a longer ride, but to see the headwaters where the spring formations are you have to visit Rainbow Springs State Park.
Either park you choose to enter, the Rainbow River is truly spectacular. The springs pump out 72 degree, crystal-clear water all year long and produce sparkling clarity throughout the 5.6-mile long river. With underwater visibility of over 150 feet, guests can view a variety of underwater creatures and plants, including a vast array of fish species and turtles.
Not surprisingly, archeological evidence suggests that people have been visiting these spring waters for almost 10,000 years. This is the real Florida, and this is one thing you don’t want to miss during your stay in beautiful Marion County.

Hawthorne, FL

(352)-481-9463

Nestled in the forests of Central Florida, just a short drive North of Ocala, is the Island Grove Wine Company. This well-kept secret is starting to make some big waves in the wine community. Island Grove is becoming famous for its 100% blueberry wines as well as other specialty fruit wines. These desirable wines are currently carried at Sweetbay grocery stores throughout the state and more distributors are carrying them everyday.

The Island Grove Agricultural Products company began in 1994 as a producer of blueberries for grocery stores. When they had a surplus of berries, the idea formed to start fermenting them into a unique and delicious wine. An expert wine maker, Chase Marden, was brought to the facility to begin the great experiment which would eventually become the Island Grove Wine Company.

Today the Island Grove Wine Company uses berries from over 300 acres of blueberry fields to make their wine. Their broad selection currently features 8 varieties with the promise of more to come. These include: Sorta Sweet Blueberry Wine, Kinda Dry Blueberry Wine, Rustic Raspberry, Back Porch Peach, Bold Blackberry, Southern Strawberry, Crisp Green Apple, and a Holiday Wine which is seasonal.

Although this company is growing and busy, they are always happy to have visitors. Island Grove offers winery tours every day (provided you call in advance). Wine tastings and field tours are also provided complimentary to large groups which arrange trips in advance.

Our hotel is located adjacent to the world-famous Silver Springs State Park. Formerly known as Silver Springs Theme Park, Silver Springs has changed from what you may remember it being a few years ago. Getting back to Old Florida roots has been the true goal at Silver Springs State Park. While you won't see any exotic animals here anymore, you're still invited to take an enchanting ride on the World Famous Glass Bottom Boats. Tours are available daily and range from 30-45 minutes and include a knowledgeable guide who will point out many of the indigenous wildlife species here in central Florida.

Additionally, the park has grown to incorporate the Silver River State Park. This extends the park considerably and includes a longer blueway kayak run. Those who prefer to venture out on their own will enjoy the hiking and nature trails within the park. Silver Springs now offers a museum, canoe and kayak rentals, and camping. The newly opened state park also includes new concessionaires and gift shops as well as a new banquet, event and weddings services.

In addition to the nature trails, the glass-bottom boats, and the canoe and kayak rentals, the newly opened park will also include horseback rides available through Cactus Jack’s Trail Rides. We encourage you to get out and visit the new park. Even if you have been there in the past, you’ve never seen it like this!

Let’s face it; you don’t have to be a kid to like playing with toys. For those of us who still love the thrill of flying model airplanes and helicopters, Ocala has the perfect destination. The Ocala Flying Model Club (OFMC) has been around since 1989, and their flying pavilion is located just over five miles from the Sleep Inn and Suites Ocala-Belleview.

Located on the Florida Greenway, the OFMC area is over 200-acres of land dedicated to flying model aircrafts. As an affiliate of the International Miniature Aerobatic club, the OFMC takes the subject of model aerobatics very seriously. With a 48′ x 600′ paved runway, a designated area for helicopters and gliders, four covered pavilions, electrical outlets and a small cooking facility the OFMC has all the amenities needed for flying events. In fact, aerobatics and fly-in events are held at least one time per month.
The club is always accepting new members and welcomes spectators to all events held at the facility. On a beautiful, sunny Florida day when there is not a cloud in the sky, watching the model airplanes zip across the sky is a great way to spend the afternoon.
