Alachua County Cuscowilla Lodge & Pool Renovations

This was an exciting project for Alachua County and BBI Construction Management.  The property, originally named YMCA Camp McConnell, was purchased by Alachua County in 2017. With funding from Wild Spaces Public Places, a renovation was initiated to restore activities at the newly renamed Cuscowilla Nature & Retreat Center. Extensive renovations were performed at the Lodge and South Pool Building, including ADA restroom, building access, and sidewalks. Additional site improvements include refurbished sleeping cabins, resurfaced parking area, and a waterfront dock with paddle craft launch. A nature trail and boardwalk, through the Florida terrain, aptly named The Swamp Walk, was also created. This project brought the original facilities up to code and ready for visitors.
