Manager's Message
The weather is cooling off and the insects are minimal. It is a perfect time to
rent a canoe or enjoy the park's peace and quiet.
- Benny Woodham, Park Manager
Welcome to Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park
In 1836, the Second Seminole War swept away the prosperous Bulow Plantation
where the Bulow family grew sugar cane, cotton, rice, and indigo. Ruins of the
former plantation-a sugar mill, a unique spring house, several wells, and the
crumbling foundations of the plantation house and slave cabins-show how volatile
the Florida frontier was in the early 19th century. Today, a scenic walking
trail leads visitors to the sugar mill ruins, listed on the National Register of
Historic Sites. The park has picnic facilities and an interpretive center that
tells the plantation's history. A boat ramp provides access for canoes and small
powerboats to scenic Bulow Creek, a designated state canoe trail. Anglers can
fish from the dock or a boat. The park is open 9:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. daily.
Located three miles west of Flagler Beach off County Road 2001(Old King's Road),
between State Road 100 and Old Dixie Highway.
Contact the Florida Park Service Information Center for general inquiries.
