If you're thinking of Devil's Garden Bird Park in Hendry County, which is on CR833 aka Government Rd. aka Snake Rd. near the jct. of CR835, then yes I know folks who have been there i.e. the [Fort Myers] Caloosa Bird Club. It's golf cart birding on a ranch for a fee. You will see Crested Caracara, Roseate Spoonbill, Wood Stork, Snail Kite, Sandhill Crane, etc. -- much of the same species you see a little further down CR835 on Blumberg Rd. & STA-5, only not in such great numbers. They have a website. Go here:

Supposedly, there was or still is, a male Vermilion Flycatcher there but I haven't been able to ascertain the validity of that sighting.
