That said, realize that Island Grove is a peaceful little place that time forgot when US301 as almost abandoned by travelers due to the construction of Interstate highways! But now, it’s a destination worthy of the drive from Gainesville and it’s a great way to sample the mostly-blueberry-related products of the company’s farm just to the east. And by-the-way, make your trip more enjoyable by a visit to the Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Home followed by a meal at the famous Yearling Restaurant, both in Cross Creek!
