Princess Place Preserve

In an effort to soak up the gorgeous weather we’ve been having, Greyson and I went to explore one of our local treasures, Princess Place Preserve. The 1,100 acre preserve area dates back to the late 1700’s and has the old house/lodge, bath house, caretaker and servant quarters as well as the first in ground concrete swimming pool in Florida!! Greyson liked looking around in the old Livery Stable the most, where he pretended to be a horsey in one of the stalls and was enchanted by the very old horse drawn carriage. He was also pretty intrigued with the swimming pool, but luckily he didn’t decide to take a swim! I personally like rocking in the rocking chairs on the huge back porch looking out over the intracostal waters. All in all, it was a fun morning and I’m glad we had the chance to check it out, we’ll head back for sure!

Here are a few snap shots from the day.
