Has a decent playground. I wish there were more picnic tables in the shade. The one outside of pavilion in shade needs to have bushes trimmed.

Very nice park but on side of trees where basketball courts are smell very bad. People said there are many dead iguanas there but it stinks a lot. Hopefully it gets taken care of.

Clean park. We come here to practice basketball with our youth teams. Generally, there are good groups of people who come here to practice or simply have. There are three full courts and the light comes on at night which is great.

Beautiful smaller park in Boca. Stopped for a picnic lunch with friends. Sat in the shade and enjoyed the afternoon.

Great courts and nice park! I believe they even have courts for other sports like baseball maybe also a nice area to do a BBQ or hangout. I found it a little inconvenient going to the area where the restrooms are/ water fountain from the main part but otherwise great place! Definitely recommended!
