So many things to do at Settlers Pond! There is a playground and restrooms, dog park (divided by…read morelarge and small dogs), walking trails, a covered pavilion picnic area, fishing and a kayak launching area. The park is immaculate! There is a golf cart parking lot and wide sidewalks all the way around the lake. You can fish from the shore or from the fishing platform. The kayak launch pad is even wheelchair accessible and has instructions posted. What a wonderful area to spend a few minutes or a few hours with your friends or family!

Mountain bike trails are cleared back and are being kept clear. Nocatee Preserve has approximately…read more5+ miles of wildlife preserve single track trails and an additional 7 miles of double track in the beautiful wooded preserve. Nocatee is a quiet trail where you might see one or two groups of people and mostly wildlife. You will have the trails to yourself and it is a perfect way to wind down on your bike after a long stressed week of work. Come out and enjoy a day away from the rat race.

The Good: Nocatee Preserve has tremendous potential to be a…read moregreat trail. You can hike, jog, mountain bike, run, horseback ride and so much more. Bird watching and even photographing nature's finest is also great here. Large variety of plants and wildlife. The MTB trails here are mostly singletracks. It's well maintained for the most part. Great trails for beginners and for those looking to get better. The Bad: Nocatee Preserve Trail is situated in a swamp or I guess, wetlands. Some areas are low lying. At around Mile 2 or 3, some areas tend to flood or collect water especially after some hard rain, which makes it not suitable to hike nor bike towards. In light of this, expect lots of insect activities. The Ugly: During the hotter months (especially Summer months)... the bugs here can be downright vicious. Yellow flies, Horse flies, Mosquitos, amongst others, are VERY VICIOUS. There's also Ticks (I call them NocaTICKS); they give me the eebie jeebies. So make sure you bring and use Insect Repelents. As a matter of fact, just go ahead and bathe in insect repellents. And there's some Pretty: I would say the best time to come here in my humble Yelp opinion, would be between Nov - Feb, when the temperatures are nice and cool. Happy Trails to You!!!

We come to this park relatively frequently due to many activities…read more It seems like these fields are always crowded. Especially on the weekends. This particular time we came in the middle of the afternoon and it was quite busy. I will say the amount of parking doesn't accommodate all those that come to spectate, so if you're coming for a game or practice, be sure to leave yourself enough time to find a spot and walk. The fields are in good condition.
