Yulee Sugarmill Ruins
More than 100 years ago, this six-acre site was a thriving sugar plantation built by David Levy Yulee. In fact, there were more than 1,000 people working the sugar mill in 1851. The mansion on the plantation was burned to the ground in 1864, and although the mill was not damaged, it never resumed operation. The mill has since been partly restored and visitors can tour the ruins at their own pace and enjoy the picnic area. No fee required.
Location: 2.5 miles west of US 19 CR 490 c/o Crystal River Archaeological State Park Homosassa 34447.
