Bunnell, Florida

Contact Information
P.O. Box 655
Bunnel, 32110
(386) 517-2084

Driving Directions
Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park is located three miles west of Flagler Beach on S.R. 100, south on C.R.2001.

Hours of Operation
Florida state parks are open from 8 a.m. until sundown 365 days a year.



Bulow Plantation Ruins can be reached from Interstate I-95 by taking Exit 90 east to County Road 2001 - the Old Kings Road, a historic roadway connecting the city of St. Augustine to the plantations along Bulow Creek and the Tomoka River. A park sign on Old Kings Road directs visitors to Plantation Road, the original entrance to Bulow Plantation. The park is open from 9 am to 5 pm. The entrance fee is $2.00 per vehicle. The Sugar Mill Ruins is listed on the National Register of Historic Sites. Visitors can either drive the loop road or walk the nature trail to the sugar mill. The nature trail passes through a stand of "catfaced" pines that were worked for turpentine prior to World War II. The Interpretive Center has original artifacts and exhibits on Bulow Plantation.



 

Park Activities

Boat Ramp, Canoeing, Fishing, Nature Trails, Picnicking, and Visitor Center

Canoeing
Bulow Creek is recognized as a State Canoe Trail. Each bend of the channel reveals new scenery and opportunity for wildlife sightings. Bald eagles, swallow-tailed kites, and Florida manatees are occasionally seen. Canoes can be rented by the day or hour from the park office which can provide a map. There is a boat ramp available to launch small powerboats.

Nature Trails
The Bulow Woods Trail is a 6.8 mile hiking trail that runs from the Fairchild Oak in Bulow Creek State Park to Bulow Plantation Ruins State Historic Site. The northern section near Bulow Ruins is recommended for half-day hikes. Starting from the parking area on Plantation Road, the trail crosses open woods before entering Bulow Hammock where the shaded path winds around massive trunks under the cathedral-like canopy of Live Oaks. White-tailed deer, barred owls, and raccoons are commonly seen, and, occasionally, a diamondback rattlesnake. The hiking trail is open for day use from 8:30 am to sunset. A primitive campsite is available to backpackers. An overnight permit is required for camping. The permit, trail maps and other information may be obtained at the park office of Tomoka State Park, 4.5 miles south of Bulow Creek State Park on Old Dixie Highway.

Picnicking
A small picnic area complete with grills is located along the scenic banks of Bulow Creek. There is a screened pavilion available for reservations for larger groups. This pavilion has become quite popular for family reunions and birthday parties.
