Fanning Springs State Park - Fanning Springs

Beautifully maintained area. One of our favorite places to picnic and swim

Boat cruise with great friends. Great river to kayak,tube,swim,fish. A great time to be outdoors & enjoy the natural beauty Florida has.

Wonderful perk for living in the Rainbow Estates County Club. Must own a home here to have access. HOA fees are just 20 per month total in the country club. Right next door to the state park and if you live here you never get turned away for over capacity like the state parks have to do.

Had the best time. All the guys here are super sweet and knowledgeable. Launch and pick up were a breeze. Also a HUGE plus, you’re allowed to bring your pup! Would definitely recommend and also rebook with them! :)

It's a 4.5-5 mile trek down the Rainbow River in a kayak. Definitely worth it! Me and my 8 year old son will definitely be doing it again. We both thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience! Just make sure you show up by 1 pm to ensure you can traverse the river and get back in time to get picked up. If you want to stop off at Swampy's restaurant then get there by 11:30-12 to make sure you have enough time. I definitely recommend doing it!!

My folks live in Dunnellon and kayaking the Rainbow River is one of the only things I look forward to doing everytime I visit. The water is crystal clear, there are turtles and birds everywhere. If you’re lucky you’ll spot a gator! I will say that this trip kayaking was a little different because of the water levels post hurricanes. This has no reflect on Rainbow River Kayak Adventures. The employees were super friendly and very quick with the shuttle at the end of the trip.

Beautiful experience swimming in the emerald spring water and going for a hike in the lushes rich green forest.

A nice place to have a picnic with family and friends. Beautiful waterfalls and hiking trails. Tubing, swimming hole and kayaking. Bathrooms, Shop, and eatery. In July the cost is only $1.00 per

Love visiting this place. Very relaxing and plenty of walking trails. The spring water colors are beautiful. And for only a $2.00 admittance fee, you can't beat that!

Paved trail that follows the water. It seems to be part of a bike path network. There also seem to be non-paved trails through the woods. Blue Run has a ramp for tubing and kayaking. If you follow the main trail it takes you to a bridge overlooking the Withlacoochee River.

Absolutely beautiful park. Amazing trails and views of nature. Hidden gem is an understatement! (Marion County's nickname)

Been here many times before with my twin boys . Being a single dad I don't get much time for just me -- but this day I was alone and able to just walk along the paved trails and look at the wildlife and water . I walked further than I ever had at once on the tail . Very peaceful and serene on the edge of town

This business makes recreation on the Rainbow River really easy. The staff is friendly and makes sure you know where to go. I kayaked once solo and once with my dog. There's excellent birding and swimming along the way. We even caught a few glimpses of river otters. There's parking at the departure point and transportation via shuttle up the river.

First time kayaking and thoroughly enjoyed spending time on the river. Headed up to Rainbow Springs and then headed south, stopped at KP Hole to stretch our legs, clean restrooms, and friendly customer service. Love the no plastic or paper policy. It helps to keep our rivers and parks clean. Didn't get to see otters as there was a lot of noise from lawn mowers and boats. However, we did see 2 small alligators and a lot of turtles and fish. It was so peaceful and relaxing just to lay back in the kayak and coast. KP Hole is $7 pp, to stop but worth it! Sometimes you have to take a break.

10 out 10! Will be doing again! The works that dropped us off was super nice! It was beautiful!

Amazing service and wonderful pricing. Would recommend over any other place. They were so kind and patient with my two daughters asking them question after question about what they were doing and why.

Derek was amazing, gave very good information, even came out after hours just to help us out. Highly recommend him. Super informative, he is the best.

Septic needed pumped out. Deric was nice and seem very knowledgeable about septic systems. They charged a fair price and came out on time. Thanks to all at Raymond Howard’s Septic.
