About Worthington Springs
Sitting along the Santa Fe River right on the border of Union and Alachua counties, Worthington Springs is a quiet, rural town of fewer than 300 residents. Over a century ago, it was actually one of the region's top summer getaways. Visitors would ride special excursion trains in from Jacksonville to swim in the local mineral springs, stay at the resort hotel, and celebrate lively Fourth of July weekends by the water.
The bustling resort era eventually faded, and today Worthington Springs offers a relaxed, slow-paced lifestyle. Daily life centers around country roads, quiet neighborhoods, and time spent outdoors along the river, which is great for fishing and paddling. For anyone looking to relocate, it provides plenty of open space, privacy, and small-town charm while keeping you within an easy drive of Gainesville and Lake Butler.
