Nancy Smith· 2 months agoWe go here to play Disc golf. The construction makes it difficult to know where to go and it would work better if they would number baskets that are so close together. We also enjoy the dog park for our rambunctious 2 or old fur friend.

Brook Jimenez· 4 months agoMany options for the community. Lifetime family membership is super reasonable! Also gets your membership to any Lee County park complex. Some classes/events have their own fees. Other kids sport options use this location. I'm aware of Soccer shots for young kids and baseball fields. Great for kids! 2 different playgrounds, free pavilions with pick-nick table and covered areas (first come, first serve) and BBQ grills,
