Wish I could give this park more stars than just 5! This park should be the standard of all parks!…read moreIf this park wasn't almost an hour from me, I would be here every single day. The playground is huge and has different sections of the playground with slides and monkey bars and this cool seat that you get on and you can move it so it shakes, a see-saw, and some water stuff to play with! There are fun smiley faces on the floor. There is also a place to have a birthday party and a trail to walk with a amazing view of the lake. You could go fishing here if you wanted. I just love this park!

There is a tennis court, a pickleball court, a basketball court, two playgrounds, and a set of swings, plug a large gazebo in the center. There are also plenty of picnic tables throughout. It's not fenced in and there are no bathrooms. I also found that the playground was a bit dirty and there were SO many bugs everywhere. The slides were covered in those tiny mosquito-like gnats. It was kind of gross. As it got a bit later in the morning they went away somewhat, and my son still had a blast on the playground.

Next to the park is a community center that can be rented out as a venue for special occasions. The playground has a great rock climbing wall with different degrees of difficulty to inspire a wide range of ages. There is a huge rope web that allows for lots of crazy climbing. My grandson had lots of fun maneuvering up, down and side to side within the structure. The main area has a couple of slides and other options for play. There is a row of swings for both infant and older children.

You cannot expect people who bring their dogs here to have any reasonable training nor management of their dog(s). I have been about to enter when a man was chatting with another actually said he,"gave up on the whole idea of training when he couldn't get his dogs to come to him." His dogs were in the park at that moment. We currently have a rescue dog who was abused by other dogs and has an aggression level of Patrick Starfish. I only take him in if no other dogs are inside. A few days ago, he was running his Chariots of Fire, run when a lady came in with three cattle dogs. They immediately chased my dog who ran away to the farthest end of the park and tried to get out the back gate. I told the lady that my dog was scared of other dogs. She literally did nothing. I had to leave my dog's poop and go rescue him. Two of her dogs left bothering him, but one chased him back to the gate when he started to run to me. He was SO panicked we could not walk the sidewalk along the park back to the car (he weighs as much as me and wasn't having it). Yesterday, we found it empty again and he began his happy run and suddenly a big huge black dog was standing there about 15 yards away. His owner told him to leave it & he ignored us and went on about sniffing around the park. I was able to get the leash back on and get out the nearest gate without incident. My dog was scared, but not tormented at all. A long walk and he was back to himself and calm. Thank You to the owner of that big beautiful, well behaved black dog!!

Kind of surprising given how beautiful the park is. They have areas for walking, basketball, beach volleyball, playgrounds, soccer, tennis, baseball, and exercising. The bathrooms and facilities are all clean. My one complaint is that the picnic pavilions are a far distance from the parking lot if you are lugging around heavy coolers and such. Would go back if we lived closer!

One is .5 mile up to a high point and the other is a 1.6 loop. No dogs are allowed in the park or in the trails for their safety. Bathrooms are available at the entrance. The playground area is separated into two sections. The sections are age appropriate and super challenging and fun for children. The equipment is clean and has the appearance of being well maintained. The park is not shaded so I don't recommend coming in the middle of the summer. Fall, winter and spring will provide lots of fun.

I'm a sucker for a good nature preserve and this place is no different. I loved my experience here…read morethe trails were fantastic and the wildlife and trees were incredible. This place has a good trail system encompassing about two and a half miles with multiple cutbacks and side trails and they've even got a water access for fishing. The scrub forest was fantastic and this park is at a higher elevation than most area around it so the views were pretty cool especially looking down onto Lake Apopka. I loved my experience here, and they've got nice clean bathrooms in the parking lot available for your use.

Lake Midget is small, geologically older sinkhole pond. It collects water runoff from the surrounding area preventing flooding. The land between the lake and surrounding neighborhood of single family homes is a one acre passive park. In the park around the lake are benches and a walking path. There is no dedicated parking. If you live in the neighborhood this is a pretty spot for a picnic, photography, dog walking, or birdwatching. I love any spot of nature and the trees and water make this a picturesque place to relax and enjoy the outdoors however amenities are limited here and there are better parks with playgrounds to take the kids to play nearby.

The Christmas decorations gave the whole place a warm lift, especially the lit tree glowing through the mist. With the bandshell looking sharp and the grounds in excellent shape, it was easy to settle into the rhythm of the wide, smooth walking paths and just enjoy the quiet. You can tell the lake views are usually the star here, and on a clear day the sweep of that massive water must be something to take in. Today wasn't that day, but the park itself carried the moment just fine, offering space, light, and a bit of holiday charm to brighten the morning of my Eustis exploration.
