Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins Historic State Park is a National Register of Historic Places-listed Florida state park located in the city of Homosassa, accessible from Crystal River via US 19. The historic park protects the remains of a sugarcane plantation that was established in the mid-19th century by David Levy Yulee, the first Jewish American to serve in the United States Senate. The plantation, which formerly spanned 5,000 acres throughout the Homosassa region, enslaved more than 1,000 African Americans to produce sugarcane, cotton, and citrus, including byproducts used to create rum. Today, the park preserves the plantation's stonework mill foundation, iron gears, cane press, and other machinery. Day-use picnic sites with barbecue grills are also available for visitor use, along with public restrooms and a picnic pavilion.
