Large quiet area with some history. No restrooms. Partially shaded. Trails are marked and get sandy, so be prepared for a workout.

This is a nature preserve with trails. The trails are not paved but I won't complain about that, unlike some other visitors, because this is a nature preserve. I'm glad Buckingham will have this sliver of nature left after all of the new construction has destroyed most of it.

Trail markers are confusingly set up among all the different routes. We only passed one map. There is not much in the way of shade and the terrain of the trails needs serious maintenance. Much of the Yellow trail is beach-like sand which can exhaust you quickly in the Florida sun. You can take a horse on the various trails but not all. if you are only hiking then I cannot recommend taking the equestrian/hiking hybrid and to only stick to the hiking only trails, shade is plentiful and the ground is a easier to traverse. It's not the worst trail but personally I would feel better if I knew which section I was on with clearer directions. There is quite a bit more that they can do with this to make it a more enjoyable experience. I'll be happy to return if there are some improvements made

Very peaceful place to walk around the nature trails, a fun place to take photos!!!

No Dogs Allowed. Horses are allowed. It apparently doesn’t say on the Lee County Sign but a very small sign on the gate which is almost impossible to see because I didn’t see it either times but the Ranger who was sitting in her truck when I pulled up told me no dogs allowed here. Told her it needs to be on the sign as all other parks show it on the rule sign. The first time I went with my dog there was no one other person at the trail. You go trough the gate that almost looks locked. Large wide grassy trails. Trails were little over grown but wide with some over hang of trails. Park guide maps through out aren’t the greatest but we always use google to map our way around anyways. Seen mama hog and two babies before they ran off. No bathrooms on site

Very well marked trails with signs indicating not only where you are but how far from parking area. Lots of pines and cleared trails, some noise from overhead planes from the Fort Myers regional airport. Horses should have a good time on the trails so marked for horses.

Went to trailhead on Buckingham Road to take a walk with a friend. The grass was very high and wet so we went elsewhere. Is this trail not maintained?

This is a perfect example of off-the-beaten path of Florida experiences. This terrain is called scrub. I love seeing the unique plants and animals. It is a great spot to see gopher tortoises and snakes--especially during spring and early summer. Hiking around this area is a huge plus.

Very nice for playing ball. The reason I go is the dog park. They have two fenced in areas. One for the smaller dogs and the other of the larger one. You also can go on a nice nature walk as well. My dog loves it.

Loved it nice and open lots of places to play in mud or go on trails water is nice to swim in. Overall great place to go to. Will be back for future fun.

(Translated by Google) Excellent place ... looks like Cinaruco. (Original) Excelente lugar... parece Cinaruco.

Great place for walking and relaxing.

I was raised in Buckingham went through these trails daily as a kid never thought after the army left anyone would be back. Now you jump the old train track and trail close to the old gun range.

Nice and dry through most of the preserve when so many locations locally are very wet. Good trail riding location!

Beautiful natural landscapes. Nice trails. Do not go after rainfall, it will be muddy.

An awesome piece of our brief but significant local WWII history! Walking this peaceful area today, you can find remnants of foundations, pilings, railroads, even firing ranges and bunkers. It's mind boggling to think this was part of a sprawling base with hundreds of aircraft, 500+ structures, and thousands of personnel.

Not much to see, but it is a large place and you can walk a long time.

Most of the horses either crib or Pace and they're ok with it. Poor things are trail ridden back to back without a break. Their living conditions are terrible in my opinion I would never go back there.

It was the most peaceful experience. I rode poco (I think that's how you spell his name) it was my first time and I have never been happier in my life. I will be returning soon. Very, very soon.

Great i still go there

Nice people a little expensive

This place is awesome! Camping by a lake which a bunch of cool people, had mudding, and obstacles for my vehicle! Tons of fun and will definitely be back with my friends this month! Finally, super friendly and helpful staff! Dude in the front gave me a military discount which was the cherry on top for me.

Super fun everyone was kind the staff is great. No food there expect just outside there is a BBQ and I think a taco truck. I suggest bringing swimwear too the lakes are fun to jump in and places for every one to swing from and land in the lake. Lots of space and fun for 4 wheeling and a day with the family. Make sure to bring a tent at least there is no where else to hide from the sun.

I love it here but you should k ow there is a quarry basically across the street from it that is free and like just as good.

I have hiked there numerous times in the past but didn't hike any yesterday. I was hoping to ride my fat tire bike there but wasn't sure if it was allowed or not. The trails are quite sandy and I was wondering if it would work with the fat tires, The signs didn't say anything about bikes but the symbols were just for hiking and horses. The only written information said no motor vehicles but didn't mention bikes specifically. There was only 1 vehicle in the parking lot when I was there. It is where the Buckingham Airfield was during WW2, which was used for anti-aircraft gunnery training for the military.

Nice, quiet area where the Buckingham air base used to be. No cost to walk through the Preserve.

Quite nice headset walk time to hang out with my ZIVA MARIA🐾❤

Tiny bit of shade, hiking trail poorly marked. Used a GPS app to orient yourself.

Beautiful Florida trail, great place to take pictures!

Took a drive to check this beauty out only to find the gate chained and locked, and it doesn't seem like the area is up to par. Please update your website or Google page and make it known that it's closed or hours vary so others are aware. Thanks.

A nice scrub trail FL hike. One of my local favorites. Also allows horses!

It's a great place to just get away an walk or ride a horse if you want to, as long as you bring ur own horse. 😁

Cool place for nature and a little WW2 history.

This trail, from a hiker’s perspective, is a snooze. The trails are not clearly marked, so grab one of the 3 water-logged trail maps, if they’re still there. If you put faith in the Green Sign and try to stick to the markers and to the “trail”, best of luck.

good walking trails

Very peaceful

Nice trail to walk

Lovely property, Jeep's tracks and shooting ranges. Flooded during summer season

February 1st. Dry, no wildlife, minimal birds. Okay if you're nearby and want to go for a walk outside, but I wouldn't make it a destination stop.

We did 8 miles 3 hours saw small tort,fox squirrels , pilated wood peckers. Cat birds herons millipeds old railroad shooting range it was cool.

Small trail but nice! It’s not shaded so don’t forget sunscreen and maybe a hat. You circle water so it’s a nice view all around.

Awesome nature trail

Peaceful

Went to go mountain bike trails and was a disappointment ...

Just rough trails

ever in the mood to see real Florida without a tourist based pay day visit here and don't forget your camera and water!

Its out in the middle of no where not much intrest

Its ok.....

Just did the half and hour ride, such a great time. Kids loved it.

I am in LOVE with this barn! The people there treat you like family and all of the horses there are so sweet! They have top quality riding lessons, and the trails are amazing! I am OBSESSED with this place and i recomend everyone to go here. If you ride or not you will find something great there! ❤🐴

This was such a spontaneous and exhilarating experience. My friend and I went to clewiston to try skydiving but the weather forced us to reschedule, we were left wanting to take off something our bucket list and we searched on google for the nearest stable so we decided to go for the first time here today. Our tour guide Brandon and the rest of the staff were AMAZING. They were very caring and knowledgeable. Explained everything in great detail as well as converse with us throughout the whole tour. We will definitely be recommending 5 star stables to our friends and family. Thank you for the great experience!!!

We did a trail ride with Brandon back in April. Loved it. Loved it so much I started taking horsemanship and riding lessons when I got home. I will be down again soon and wanted to know if I can get a lesson while I'm down there?

Did a great job with my son, patient and good teacher. Plan on returning for sure. Edit: I have been bringing my son here for the last 9-10months, he is younger and just enjoys seeing the horses and going for his short "training" lessons. They are always great with him, patient and he is now getting old enough to start learning more. The entire staff is friendly and they run a good operation. If you want to go for a trail ride, learn to ride, have your kiddos learn basics or more advanced, literally any of the above they will go above and beyond to make sure you have a good experience! Also their horses, my son has been on 3 of them and they are all extremely well trained and behaved, seem to be even more so when the horses know a little one is on them. Will continue to go there for the foreseeable future!

We brought a family group on a beautiful Saturday and had a wonderful time. Guides Brandon and Choo-Choo were helpful, friendly, and funny. The horses looked very well taken care of, and the whole atmosphere was relaxing, informative, and entertaining. I'm already strategizing how to make visits here a regular thing for us. Thank you for helping us make a great memory!

I love it!!! Is so much fun, and all the personal is so nice gentil The they can answer any questions about their horses. I can wait to come back. I am in love with the kitties and their dog too ; the they are very friendly😋😋😍😍

My son & I had a great time, Brandon & Jade were awesome. We can't wait to go back!

They were do kind to my daughter and her group of friends when they went on a trail ride. The horses are in BEAUTIFUL shape, they looked well taken care of

Kids horse back lesson is such a great gift idea and we couldn't have picked a better place to take our daughter. She loved it!

Had a great time and staff is wonderful. Highly recommend this ranch!

A great place to go with your family or as a group all around greatness and lots of fun

Had SO much fun riding horses at 5 Star Stables!! We went on the 1 hour trail and the guides were so nice & friendly. Will definetly come again

Great time

Super nice folks here. Did an hour trail ride with Brandon, he was awesome. Horses seemed well taken care of. Happy to give them our business. We will definitely come back next time we're in town

I visited the stables with my family and friends and had the best time! The workers are super welcoming and friendly and super easy to talk to. The horses were beautiful. The overall experience was amazing. 10/10. ✨💓!!!!!

This was my boyfriend and mine first time riding. I will definitely come back it was a great experience! The guide was nice, funny and fun. Would definitely recommend this place they are great.

Love the trail ride. Great family fun!

My little grand daughter started riding here when she was 5 now she goes to competition this place has helped her so much to become the person she is today

Very Friendly

Lots of fun. Had a nice ride. Great place for kids birthday parties.

It was amazing! We had so much fun on the trails, would recommend to everyone!!❤

I'm interested in doing horse back riding, but I've been having difficulty getting someone. The mailbox is full and can't take anymore messages, and their website doesn't exist. I'm hoping someone can reach out to me this way. *fingers crossed*

Excellent experience. Tons of shade.

Great place to have a lesson or trail ride. Great choice of safe horses.

Took my kids on a school field trip. They loved riding the horses. The staff was friendly and they made sure the children were safe.

Brandon was a great guide, staff was very friendly and made it a great experience!

They are very friendly with you and the horses and the facility is clean.

Wonderful trail rides!

Loved it! Great staff and great horses!

We had a great time on our trail ride! The facility is clean, the horses are well taken care of and lovely to ride and the scenery is beautiful!

Great Staff, my twins had their 1st ridding lesson.. it was a great experience, they had so much fun 😍

Friendly staff

Couples Takes Horseback Riding 2018 was EPIC but we couldn't done it without Purple and her amazing team! An AWESOME EXPERIENCE, the horses are so well trained🖤🖤

My daughter did the summer camp there and she loved it! She can't wait for next summer! We also have done trail riding here a couple of times and enjoy riding every time! The staff there are very friendly and patient with first-time riders.

Awesome, knowledgeable staff and experience!

Fun place to take the family to ride, swim and hang around. The staff that hangs/patrols near the zip line and rope swings does a good job of policing riders speeds for safety which is nice. Between the water, rc track, and spaces for ide it's a great time.

Pretty cool place. But be careful, it's a free for all. No kind of rules at all lol.

Spectacular, Fun and relaxing place for the family and friends.

It's a fun place to go for you and your children. One more sing there is a speed limit on all the roads 6 MPH please go that slow before you get a warning!!!!!

Good place for Atv's and dirt bike. You can test your 4wd Suv too. Good place for the family.

Lots of people having fun. Didn't see anything undesirable like some other motorsport parks, no drunks, no fighting no craziness. Just people on all types of off road vehicles having fun. Sun up to sunset, $20 per person, $10.00 per toy.

Our first time there with our new raptor 700r ....what a blast we were there until almost closing. Also met the owner of the park super nice and welcoming. This will be our go to for every weekend we plan on going riding. The 1 hr an 30 min drive is worth it.

Fun👍🏻

(Translated by Google) Good place for family (Original) Buen lugar para la familia

If they put better bathroom I will rate it a 5 star.

One of the most relaxing fun enjoyable places to go with the family. Also the new RC Rockcrawler course is pretty bad a$$

Amazing!!!!!!!

(Translated by Google) A real fun, a day at the beach with barbecue, music and the adrenaline of the 4x4 (Original) Una autentica diversion, un dia de playa con parrillita, musica y la adrenalina del 4x4

I love this place, it's peaceful and perfect for the family. You can do anything here, from camping to fishing and even ride UTV's. Theres UTV rentals and a BBQ place.

Best family mud park in the state

Pretty good place to camp, ride your atvs, and hang out. It has a lake and zip line to enjoy!

Been going there since 1st opened...have had such great times!!! Love you have mud holes dirt bike tracks fishing and camping all in 1. The only 1 around so close to us that makes it even better!! 1 of the owners James is great and keeps it low key so families can enjoy!!

Too expensive for a one day visit: $20.00 per person. There are not services at all. There are not rest rooms. Do not go.

this place always makes me come back. Plenty to do love the slide and swings. plenty to ride around. very nice people around the whole park very nice owner

I love this place

Had a blast!!! Great place... great people!!! Everyone ready to have fun... yet everyone willing to help when someone is broke down or stuck in the mud!

Nice place

Excellent place

Great place for the Jeepin community!! Excellent event Prodigy goes Pink!

Fun place as always

Great Place For Fourwheeling & The Lake Is Awesome to Swim With A Zipline

Great day at Lazy Springs! Lots of things to occupy our whole group, ages 11 to 57. All the 11 year old wanted to do for her birthday today was ride dirt bikes at Lazy Springs! Swimming there was a bonus!

Always a great place to hang with family and go muddling

A lot of fun!

Good

The place is very beautiful and everything but the girl they have at the entrance treated us very badly

So much fun for the whole family! Bring your kayak, paddle board in addition to ATV. Also, don't forget shade unless you want to sit in car...

We love this place the fresh spring is so relaxing

Good times

Good money

Need restrooms

Nice easy walk. Trails were well marked. Nice to see the cattle.
