I would come out here with friends on the weekends many years ago and take a boat out onto East Lake Tohopekaliga. My friends would bring their children out, and we would spend all day out here. Everyone had a great time, and the kids loved it! Tubing, fishing, swimming, or just lying out on the beach working on a tan. There is even a playground for the little ones. Pavilions with picnic tables and grills are available, and there are restrooms that are kept really clean. Come to think about it, the whole park is kept up nicely. A ball field and volleyball court are on the grounds as well. You can bring the dogs out. Although they are not allowed on the beach, there is plenty of green space for them to walk around. The park is open from dawn to dusk, and no motorized vehicles such as go carts or ATVs' are allowed. And dogs must be on a leash. Ralph V. Chisholm Regional Park is great to visit if you love boating or just taking a canoe out. Or if you want to bring the kids out to the playground. As for me, I can sit out here with a lunch and watch the world go by. Or all of the cranes and other birds, for that matter.

When we moved out this way, I had a friend tell me how wonderful "the big playground behind the…read morechurch" was. Took a year or two to realize this is the place she meant. We've had multiple birthday parties for our kids here and attended others. The covered Pavillion with bathrooms is excellent. They had plugs for the crock pots full of food we brought. It's maintained daily, something I found out the time I arrived at 7am to sweep and blow leaves away and clean the tables. A lady showed up after I was done to do all that and thanked me instead. Oops! Oh yeah, then there's the huge playground. My kids have loved this place and all the wooden things to run around, through, up, and over for ages!

This is for sure in our top three favorite parks now!…read more It's tucked back behind Sky Zone, so it's quiet and has plenty of trees to shade it perfectly and allow for a nice breeze. The play structure is huge and offers so much to engage with and use imaginative play. There are multiple slides, as well as a few different areas with plenty of swings. We easily spent a few hours and didn't know the time had passed. Lots of space to run, jump, and climb. It is all very sturdy and safe, as well as clean.

Me having a large family of 5 daughters we have frequented Disney world a few times and when visiting magic kingdom you have to Ride splash mountain. Splash mountain has height restrictions so we always do a parent swap. Thai little park beneath the ride is a fun and cool way to spend that wait during a parent swap. Well shaded and has cute little slides and play place designed for toddlers. All my girls at one point have played on this and they always have a great time. Makes the wait for the parent swap go by much quicker than just sitting in the heat at other attractions. Overall very cool and hidden gem located at the Disney world parks. Wish more rides had parent swap areas like this.

There is a little playhouse and a slide, which it says is for ages 2-5 but our kindergartener still had a blast. What I like best isn't so much what it is, as where--it is fully in the shade, in a self-contained area with seating for the parents. It's a great break from the sun for both parents and kids, even if it isn't air conditioned.

The level of difficulty was just fine for us and the kids, even with my limping. We loved the informative Boy Scouts markers showing the animals that were in the wilderness. Sadly but lucky for us. The sign mentioned bobcats, otters, deer, wild hogs, coyotes, rabbits, opossum, skunk, raccoons, and armadillo. Also there was a bridge made by a Boy Scout as his eagle project. It was done so well. We didn't actually see the animals but we did see very tall birds and the prettiest color of dragon flys. We saw, red, orange, and a tiger patterned wig one. We also saw plenty locusts grasshoppers, and anole lizards. Unfortunately the information center was closed due to covid but the lady working did come out and talk to us. She was supper friendly. Sadly our trip was cut short because of the rain. However if you like the outdoors and love free activities, put this place on your list.

One of our favorite parks in the neighborhood!…read more This park is a fantastic addition to the Summerlake community -- there's truly something for everyone here. Walking trails, outdoor gym equipment, a volleyball court, picnic tables with a grill, and a big playground that's great for all ages. The playground itself is excellent: big slides and little slides, interactive features like drums and bells that our 21-month-old loves, plus a few swings. It's semi shaded with lots of trees around, which helps on those hot Florida afternoons. It's a very popular spot -- and for good reason. We love bringing our son here, and being right next to Summerlake Elementary makes it super convenient for families in the area. If you're in Summerlake and haven't been yet, you're missing out. Highly recommend!

It has a pirate ship theme which I thought was very cute. There is a section with instruments to play. There's a balance beam (haven't seen that at a playground nearby before). And there are two swings, one of which is a parent/child combo swing! So much fun for me too. Everything is fenced in, which is definitely a plus. It kept my child very entertained. My only comment is that, while there are shade canopies overhead, they don't do much to keep the sun out, so there aren't many shaded areas and things got hot and uncomfortable fast. It also made the play structure and slides a bit hot. We could have spent more time here but the sun was a killer. This is a better playground in fall and winter months.
