This is one of my favorite trails In central Florida. There are miles and miles of trails with different paths so you can never get bored. There isn't a bathroom at this trailhead so make sure you empty yourself before you arrive. There is plenty of parking and lots of friendly people on the trail. I usually go alone and I've always felt safe.

quiet little place lovely little place great for long-term residence there and even the campers are…read moreall nice. The owner is wonderful and big papa is great. He helps around at the park.

These people scam ya. A master class of how to take money with no service could be taught here…read more no toilet paper in bathrooms no paper towels no shower curtain everyone gets a code to the bathroom to the ladies bath but there's no lock inside so if ya want to be trafficked come here! They put the light on a timer so to hurry you up however for the paying customer it stinks you get in, start a shower after trying to figure out that glass door that covers all the things you need and the lights go off. good luck not falling.... cheap cheap cheap. Dog poop everywhere we had to clean our site before setting up They charge you extra if you check in on Sunday even if you book on a Sunday and pay in full it's on top, fine I can see how we may have missed that however on top of everything else it felt like a scam. they have a ridiculous "window" to check in and out, hour wise, but don't worry they won't be available anyways. You call they say don't call, text us, you text and no response anyways. Everyone walks through the sites and we could not pick where our site was so youre playing campsite roulette when you check in. The on site owners are snarky and will charge you for ANYTHING they can think of. WiFi isn't included, can't hook into 110 think worst nightmare, money pit and this is the location. The pics on their website don't even match the location. Good luck, if you want to shred your money and have a crappy stay you picked the right spot. I've noticed the reviews after we stayed wished I checked google and other RV places before just their website, you can see how their responses are even snarky and how people tell you to run. I'd have to agree with those reviews run not worth it. Nothing like the smell of Dog poop in the morning to wake up....

If you remember watching "The Parent Trap" as a kid and thinking that's the kind of camp you want…read moreto go to, then Mah-Kah-Wee is for you. It is a rustic, outdoorsy camp, no cell phones allowed here! Camp Mah-Kah-Wee is a Girl Scout camp. They offer programs throughout they year for girls and have overnight camps during the summer. I have been to Mah-Kah-Wee many times over the years with my daughters, and I really appreciate that we have a facility like this so close to home. The camp surrounds a lake so there are many water activities like canoeing and kayaking available during the summer. There is also a swimming pool. They offer all of the standard camp activities like archery and crafts and they also have an obstacle course. My kids love this place. During the summer the week-long camps are themed so you can find something to match your child's interests. As for the facilities, the best place to stay is in the cabins. They have air conditioning! In Florida you NEED air conditioning in the summer. I've also chaperoned overnights in the tents, which aren't so bad, and a building they call the Eco Center, which is a bit more like a enclosed porch... no AC there. Overall, it's a great place. I highly recommend it. The prices for overnight camp are very good and the kids have a great time.

In the late 1800's and early 1900's, settlers used a cattle trail to reach the 29 acre Red Bug Lake…read moreto water their cattle. Unfortunately for them, the area was plagued by chiggers, small biting insects that would irritate the cattle and the cowboys tending them. The lake and the road leading to it became known as Red Bug Lake and Red Bug Lake Road because of the abundance of the biting red bugs. Thankfully there is no longer any sign of the biting red bugs. Today Red Bug Lake is the site of a popular park with a variety of recreational amenities. These include a restroom, playground, baseball field, sand volleyball court, outdoor exercise equipment, tennis courts, fishing pier, and boardwalk. Adult softball leagues and adult and youth tennis programs are offered in the park. This park is clean and well maintained. I especially enjoyed taking in nature and wildlife on the .9 mile paved walking trail that circles the lake. I was able to spot several birds. It is ideal for joggers, walkers, and anyone looking to participate in gentle exercise. The park also has a picnic area with tables and grill for family gatherings and cookouts. This park is a great recreational spot for relaxing, exercising, and enjoying family time.

A friend and I decided to try a new park for a walking adventure…read more Unfortunately, it looks like the walking paths that she remembered were under construction as it was nothing more than a muddy pathway and unwalkable. Otherwise, it seems like a nice park with plenty of parking, some covered pavilions, tennis course and fields for sports. It also does have a little bit of a nice lake view so that could be awesome for relaxing and/or bird watching. I have not had the opportunity to interact with any staff or make any reservations, if needed, so I can't speak to that.

Love this park! It's the cleanest I've been to in winter springs. During the week it's not crowded…read moreat all. There's 2 parking lots. The splash pad is great and gated in. There's restrooms and a little bridge to walk plus a smaller walking trail. There's plenty of places to eat at if you bring food.

Our friends have their Rock Super Bowl at this park each year, they have been holding this event…read moreannually so it's their Rock Super Bowl IX. We had a blast! Basically, a battle of the local rock and roll bands - a variety of different members from different bands come together on two teams for one day with a purpose to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Tickets are only $5, bring a foldup chair, 10x10 tent, a cooler and it's a great time watching all of our friends compete with one another on the field. Torcaso Cove Park is a great place to hold this event. There is a spacious field with plenty of space on the sidelines for fans. There are several parking areas available making parking easy for large events. There was plenty of space for a half-time show with live music right by the field. There were also a BBQ vendor and several other vendors on site selling food, jewelry, and other items. The park has a public restroom, a playground, splash park, sand pits, plenty of paved walking areas, a picnic area with tables, large pavilion, a beautiful bridge that crosses the heart shaped cove, the park has a bunch of Muscovy ducks waddling around and is dog friendly, what else can you ask for. Nancy and I really enjoyed our time at the park, we will definitely be back to bring our dog and take a nice walk. I just have to mention that it was a bit muddy on the field, even on a hot sunny day. So be sure to wear something you don't care about getting dirty.

Blue Jacket Park is definitely one of my favorite parks to visit. It is spacious with many…read moreopportunities to engage in various activities, from working out, biking, jogging/running, walking, picnicking, yoga - you name it, you can do it. While it is a lively park and can get busy from time to time, especially on the days the run/walk clubs are there, it is usually a nice park to visit solo and enjoy the peace of the surroundings offered. There is more than enough open green space and a good amount of seating throughout the park. The park also maintains various courts/area for various sporting events like baseball, volleyball, soccer, and various other outdoor activities. As far as proximity to other areas, this park is also located a short distance from the shopping and food eateries in Baldwin Park. So, after enjoying a great workout or just strolling through the park, you can pop over to Baldwin Park for some food and beverages. The only challenge, at times, is parking. Parking in this area (in general) is just tricky; however, there is street parking throughout the neighborhood near the park as well as a designated parking lot for the park itself. However, you can also park throughout the Baldwin Park area and just walk to the park from there. Before I close this out, I've gone to numerous events in this park as well, so it is great for hosting various community events (of course, with the proper permits, etc.). All in all, Blue Jacket Park is really just a great park.

I've been coming here since I was a kid, and I still love walking around this park to this day…read more I used to come here to play tennis as a kid. The park is also pretty fun. I can still use the swings at least! One of my favorite things to do here is to walk around the park though. It's great exercise! It used to be a Navy base long ago, with a ship for training! Now it's a park with recently added plaques and statues to honor its past.
