The trail is well maintained. There are a lot of road crossings and this in general is poor for road biking with only a few sections that are decent in length without interruption. For those using tri bikes there is essentially nowhere I felt comfortable in the aerobars. This is better suited for more leisurely activities.
Terrific trail along Lake Monroe. Fresh and smooth surface (mostly) and a relaxing ride. Only 4.5 miles long however, but does connect to Cross Seminole trail, albiet at the end with lots of traffic.
Paved path runs parallel to the road the whole time. Park in lot at Walgreen’s because there’s no lot at trail head. It was ok.
As of 11/24, there was a roughly a1000 foot section of the trail adjacent to the lake that is still closed due to past hurricane flooding. You will have to go on the road to get around it. No longer flooded, just covered with debris which will hopefully be cleaned up soon.
Parked off a dirt lot about the midway point of the trail. Rode west, enjoyed a view of the gulf at the endpoint, then turned around, and road the 6+ miles to the other end. If I had a complaint, it would be that the trail didn't go further.
I’ve done this trail three times now on different skates. It’s on of my favorite trails on the Coast to Coast Trail & also just in general in Central Florida. It’s smooth. It’s beautiful and peaceful. Never too crowded. Currently open and only a small wet spot but manageable for skaters of quads and in-lines.
Not the trail you want to do for you first ride. It was amazing. Did about 21 miles of it. Now other trails are going to be hard to match this one. Saw a lot of wildlife, friendly ebike riders and it was beautiful. Lots of curves, tree covers trails and places to stop. I highly recommend riding this trail
The Good Neighbor Trail was completed thru Brooksville several months ago. It passes thru Tom Varn park (water, restrooms, shelter) and connects to the SR 50 trail going to Weeki Wachee. SR 50 trail also connects to the Suncoast Trail. It has opened up many possibilities for long rides. For example you could start at Blue Run park in Dunellon (Marion County) and ride south 80+ miles, one-way, connecting to the Withlacooche, Good Neighbor, SR 50, Suncoast and Upper Tampa Bay trails, all the way into northern Hillsborough County.
Nice trail to start the coast 2 coast across the state.
Trail closed, drove to get here and found out with signs up at all the crossings in our area.

I’ve ridden this trail several times. The trail itself is awesome. Not too many busy crossings lots of shade. I really like riding this trail. The one thing that takes away from the experiences too many bike riders who are very rude riding for too fast for this trail, walkers, people, walking, dogs, pushing strollers, etc., also passing in spots where they shouldn’t be running stop signs it’s getting to be where it’s almost dangerous
