About General Coffee

Named for politician and military leader General John E. Coffee, this 1,511-acre park protects rare and endangered species in the blackwater cypress swamps along the Seventeen Mile River. Boardwalks wind through mysterious tupelo and cypress forests where pitcher plants, indigo snakes, and gopher tortoises thrive. The park offers exceptional birding with woodpeckers, owls, hawks, and songbirds.
