Visit the Springs Near Our Apartments in Gainesville, Florida

Visiting Florida’s many freshwater springs can be a great way to relax. The fresh water upswells keep a cool 72° F year-round, which can be especially refreshing during a hot summer afternoon. Central Florida is home to dozens of these natural treasures and many of them are easily accessible for anyone who wants an invigorating dip in the water.

Some of the area’s most popular springs include:

Ginnie Springs
Silver Springs
Devil’s Den
Manatee Springs
Poe Springs
Rainbow River
And many more

Swimming isn’t the only activity to enjoy at these springs. Many locations offer canoes, kayaks and inner tubes that can be rented by adventurous visitors. Some have glass bottom boat tours that can let you see all of the interesting wildlife and habitats without having to get wet. If you’re interested in history, many springs send up fossilized shells and sharks’ teeth to the surface, and these natural gems can be found by straining sand in places near the springs. You can even enjoy a picnic in the parks that are attached to many of the best springs.

“The scenery and space is amazing. The apartment leasing staff and maintenance staff are wonderful. I love that its a gated community and all though it's family and student oriented it's still extremely quiet.”

“This is a quiet gated community with nice apartments located in a great area.”

“We just moved in about a month ago. We had maintenance in so many times trying to get things set up for my disabled son - but they never complained. The grounds are beautiful. The people in the office are always polite and helpful. Very happy here.”
