Mike Roess Gold Head Branch State Park covers just under 2400 acres of rolling sandhills, marshes, ravines, lakes and scrub in Clay County, six miles north of Keystone Heights on SR 21, midway between Gainesville and Jacksonville. The Civilian Conservation Corps built its cabins and other amenities in the 1930s, and the park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2020.

The park developed in the 1930s when the Civilian Conservation Corps built many structures including cabins during the economic crisis of the Great Depression. These constructions form the backbone of the park's infrastructure today.

The buildings throughout the park showcase National Park Service rustic design using materials that blend naturally with the surroundings. Visitors encounter wood and stone structures in simple forms that reflect the park's early construction era.

The park features four marked hiking trails along with fishing, horseback riding, canoeing, and swimming at different locations throughout the grounds. The varied offerings let visitors explore different sections based on their interests.
