About this Spring
A second-magnitude spring with three vents on private property along the Suwannee's west bank, the main pool is about 126 by 84 feet with a visible boil, known for its unusual coppery coloration caused by iron-rich groundwater staining vegetation and roots, with a run flowing roughly 500 feet to the river.
