Michael Hernandez· 5 years agoThis is a review for the Space Coast Lightfest 2020. It was really well done. There was plenty to see. I even went through twice! I did not at the Santa's Village, but it did seem like a cute stop for Cocoa and pictures. The price is $15 per car load, and that is well worth it. I'm sure a lot of hours were put in to set this up. The pictures do not do it justice, I recommend seeing it for yourself!
Abdul Hakim· 7 years agoBig park, several lakes and ponds,some for swimming and others for fishing. Don’t really need a fishing license, but it is the law, so keep that in mind. Park does host many events and their is a ranger office for maps information, and registration for the campgrounds which I believe is $20 a day. They do have playgrounds and dog parks also. There are a few regulars who pack on the grass, underneath trees everyday all day like clockwork, so there’s that.
Peggy Bryson· 2 months agoA great place for all kinds of activities! Zumba with Maggie and Mary (M&M Show) and Kelley (Star Lotus) is Exceptional!!!
Christi Jay· 9 months agoThe testing proctors are extremely rude. I didn’t wanna be there just as much as they did but were not helpful at all and even threw my test in front of me. Very aggressive and rude.
Dan Cureton· a year agoGreat facility. Clean and well managed. I have been to the Community Center for several different events. It is always clean and organized. The staff is helpful and polite. I mostly come here for running events. In this case the restrooms are very important and their restrooms are always clean and stocked. Thank you for all that you do.
