The Thursby House located at Blue Spring State Park in Orange City, Florida, was constructed in 1872.

The house was once a two-story structure built from three kinds of center-cut pine that had been milled in Savannah, Georgia, and transported by boat to the site.

Louis P. Thursby and his family settled on the inlet to Blue Springs, located on the St. Johns River, in 1856.

Shortly after arriving, he constructed one of the first steamboat landings and planted one of the earliest orange groves on the upper St. Johns River.
