Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Historic State Park Description

Visitors to this old Florida homestead can walk back in time to 1930s farm life when Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings lived and worked in the tiny community of Cross Creek. Her cracker-style home and farm, where she wrote her Pulitzer prize-winning novel The Yearling and other wonderful works of fiction, has been restored and is preserved as it was when she lived here. The park is open every day and visitors may walk the grounds and peek in through the windows and doors of the farmhouse, but tours inside the farmhouse are not currently available. Be sure to pick up a color brochure of the farmhouse
