Located just east of I-4 in Volusia County, the Southern Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp Historic District contains 65 historic buildings and two objects. The current town plat was implemented in 1902 and is characterized with a grid pattern of streets and city blocks. An earlier 1895 plat that was never developed, featured curvilinear streets, large parks and green spaces. Here is a brief photograph tour of Cassadaga.
