Gamble Plantation Historic State Park in Ellenton, FL, offers visitors a glimpse into the past with its stately antebellum mansion, the only surviving plantation house in South Florida. Once home to Major Robert Gamble and later a refuge for Confederate Secretary of State Judah P. Benjamin, the mansion is now furnished in the style of a mid-19th century plantation, providing guided tours six times a day.
Managed by the Gamble Plantation Preservation Alliance, this historic site invites guests to explore the rich history and culture of Florida through its well-preserved grounds, museum, and educational programs. With picnic areas and a visitor center, the park offers a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience the Real Florida.
