bat400 visited on 1st Sep 2009 - their rating: Cond: 1 Amb: 3 Access: 4 The village site is on a spit of land extending into a bay area. You can drive right into the area as a picnic area with shelterhouses is located there. The only visible evidence of the original village are midden mounds all around the perimiter - they are not particularly noticable although some of them are quite large.
The most notable feature is a strange, deteriorating Art Deco sculpture of a sort of pyramid of Indian men. This was once a fountain and pool depicting an "Indian Legand" which may have been entirely fabricated in the 20th century.
Lies within the Tomoka State Park.
