Clean park. Different age playground. Walk out on dock. Got there about 8:00am left by 10:00 after homeschooling kids came in and were too rowdy, parents off talking under a pavilion. Before that granddaughter was having a blast.

Been here a few times and many more to come. You can lose track of time here easily.
Bathrooms are shockingly clean, great shade, beautiful views, much to do, a LOT of space easily 7+ Pavilions, plenty of parking.
Shade shade and more shade. Never enough shade in FL. Mist sprayers around, seesaw, sway thingy, nature trails, swings, climbing obstacles. Each area has an age posted recommended.
The park is greatly maintained compared to most.
There is a track at the main entrance.
Lots of squirrels, and they have personalities, too. My 3yo tried to chase one, and he would climb up and down almost as if having fun.
You can also bring sidewalk chalk and draw on the sidewalk in the shade. Sadly though they wash it off before the next day lol. (We were hoping to add to it).
They have grills to use also if cooking.
Never seen a gator, seen deer, and rodents.

This beautiful playground is open to public, free to public, but each time I go there, the place is empty, which is absolutely fine with me. I have the whole place to myself with the quiet and the view.
It’s kept really clean with nice walk trails for dog walking, shades, parking lots, rest rooms, etc.

This was a super cute little park, and the kiddos loved it!! It was a great place for them to run out energy before our 10 hour drive home. It had a lot of different things to do and I loved the little stage area it had for them to put on a show. It has really good paths for a nice stroll and it’s very shaded.
