Silver Springs is beautiful but I didn't realize until we got there that it is NOT a spring for swimming. When I looked it up on Google and looked at images tons of photos of people swimming popped up so I just assumed. My mistake. Got there. Got kids unloaded and my son wanted to know if he could take his little net in to scoop up minnows or whatever and it was then that something popped up saying "No Swimming". We loaded up and drove down the road to Juniper springs.

If your visiting from out of town stay in a campground. Poor experience with hotels in the area.
