About

Bidwell Wood House is a preserved 1882 homestead in Sarasota that gives visitors a window into life on the Florida frontier during the 19th century. The house sits within Pioneer Park at 12th Street, alongside the Crocker Memorial Church, which dates to the early 1900s and has served the community for over a century. Both buildings are maintained by the Historical Society of Sarasota County and available for tours as well as private rentals for weddings, celebrations, and gatherings. It's a quiet place to step back into local history and see how early settlers lived in this part of Florida.
