Welcome Enterprise, Florida

          ONCE the premier tourist destination in the 1800s for notables and celebrities from all over the world… traveling on elegant steamboats down the St. Johns River to bathe in the healing mineral springs and enjoy a “hunting and fishing paradise. ”History and hearts have united the citizens of this now threatened community in a mission to “Save Enterprise” from annexations and irresponsible development, and the Enterprise Preservation Society is dedicated to this goal. Through the efforts of this organization and the community, the town of Enterprise will not slip quietly into the past, and its rich history, culture, and environment will not perish.
