Sofia Ferrin· 11 months agoI know this may sound exaggerated but I am impressed with this park, it’s literally the only park with a shaded playground and a shaded splash pad and I still had to drive 20 minutes to get here. Also I have to express my disappointment for most of the other parks because the summer here in Florida is almost unbearable, I’ve tried taking my child to parks close to home a couple times we couldn’t even stay because the playground was so hot and even though the splash pads are alright it’s hard to stand or sit under the hot sun, the seats and picnic tables are usually so hot can’t even use them.
Snow Lam· 4 years agoThis is a small but shady playground with clean restrooms. Small but fun for all ages. My 3 & 7 YO kids enjoyed the playground. The splash pad was closed when we came. (If you are coming from Orlando with your kids to pick up fruit trees from Leaph Michaelson, this is a good nearby park to stop by to let the littles get their wiggles out.)
SaRasta· 2 years agoThis is a great park layout with a lot to offer the splash pad is great nice outdoor workout area recreation center
Cal Collins· a month agoWent there to play pickellball with a friend. The facility was clean and cool, and managed very well by Louis.
Jenna West· 4 years agoNice park - splash pad was closed with no reopening date. Also, there were large construction vehicles going across the park while it was open. I’m sure the drivers were being safe, but doesn’t seem like a great idea while small children are running around
