“In the heart of the forest.”
Worth the drive on twisty roads through Daniel Boone National Forest to stop into the smallest Post Office in the USA and send a postcard home :)
FLORIDA has the smallest post office. The Ochopee Post Office in the Everglades is the smallest in the United States. The building, 8 feet 4 inches deep and about 7 feet wide, once was a shed to store tools and tomatoes. Now it’s a full-fledged post office with room for only a single clerk. It has 40 P.O. boxes and sends a carrier out six days a week on a 170-mile route to serve 300 patrons who dwell mostly in the middle of nowhere.
You’ll find the post office about 65 miles west of Miami or 35 miles east of Naples on U.S. 41, also known as the Tamiami Trail. Be alert, the tiny post office is easy to miss.
Yeah, just don’t. We were actually a little nervous to get out of our car for a quick photo op. It looks like it’s in someone’s driveway, there was trash everywhere, and the whole thing was kind of depressing.
From what I can tell, you can't actually enter the building. There is a postal box across from the building that you can put mail in.
I can now take this off my bucket list! That's all I can say.
