Was not as complex as we believed ot would be but in any case a important part of history that must be told. Take time to explore there is alot of reading and they offer many books on the history of Slavery that are must reads.

I love snakes so last year when we came the Serpentariun was closed. We made it this year and the place is an unbelievable hidden gem. The place is amazing and has a lot of information available to read and not only about serpents. The snakes are amazing, the have indor and outdoor exhibits, they have shows every hour or so and they are really informative. We were lucky enough to talk to the owner and his daughter, beautiful people and made the visit even more special.

Me and my wife have went to the area several times but first time we stopped into the visitors center. Small but amazing, area for kids, gift shop and a wonderful museum on the 2nd floor with an beautiful view from the observation deck. Met Rich, had a great conversation with him and a ranger about the area and its history. Its a must visit if you are in the area.

Beautiful spot, very quiet and serene. Lots of walking trials along the canal, a few benches to sit and plenty of wildlife. Dodnt know you could pay to spend the night in the lockhouse, would be interesting.
