Thanks to the property for having us out to experience and document this. Such an amazing location! This place is an absolute must visit when in the Fort Myers area! The museum, winter homes, botanical gardens are each worth stopping and visiting. We were taken on a personal guided tour and Alexandria was amazing. She is so knowledgeable and you can tell she has a passion for working there and sharing the history. We highly recommend getting the upgrade to a tour so you don't miss anything!

Take a walk through this mystical landscape full of cypress, palmetto plants, otters, birds, turtles, and alligators living here year round. Located in the Fort Myers area, the park includes over 3,500 acres of wetland ecosystem, a beautiful boardwalk, and interpretive center. There is also a butterfly garden, that you can also enjoy. The cypress slough here acts as a filter while it catches rainwater that is making its way towards Estero Bay. As I walk through this park, I feel an eerie sensation like I’m in a scene from a Harry Potter movie. Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve is an overall wonderful park and I highly recommend it!
