The gated entry/leash area is large and makes it easy to get leash on/off prior to entering the park. There are lots of hoses and water stations for the pups. There is also a lot of shade throughout. I went with my lab Cocoa, my mom, her 7 month old golden Auggie, and two of my kids. When I realized how many dogs were present I decided not to go into the actual dog park because my dog is overwhelmed in that situation, and I didn't think bringing small children inside was a fantastic idea. My mom's pup got some great energy out playing with all the big dogs. My kids, Cocoa, and I walked around the remainder of the park. There is a giant Ficus tree providing tons of shade (great picnic spot). We followed the path around the lake, which was also very nicely shaded. Parking was easy to find.

Haney Creek Trail is actually two trails. The trails are primarily used by dog walkers, people…read morelooking to exercise, bird watchers, and nature photographers. Some of the wildlife that had been seen along the trail include foxes, turtles, black indigo snakes, and butterflies. Some of th plants you will find here are sweetbay magnolias, dahoon hollies with red berries, white water lily, and tarflowers. Amenities at the trail include restrooms, pavilions with picnic tables, water fountains, and trail maps. The north track is a 1.1 mile loop trail that goes through scrub habitat around wetlands and through sandy pine trails. This is the trail that takes you to the dog park. In 2017 Stuart completed a water restoration project involving 153 acres of wetlands that created a fresh water and tidal wetland that cleans storm water run off and improves water quality in the St. Lucie estuary. It improves the health of the ecosystem. The water in the ponds remove pollutants and provide a habitat for wildlife. The project also added 1/3 of a mile to the nature trails. The southern trail requires you to cross over roads and is not very clearly marked. This trail goes through a pine woods habitat. I only had time to visit the north trail and had a pleasant walk. If I lived nearby I would be a regular visitor. I applaud Stuart for working to preserve the wetlands to ensure the health of the nearby St. Lucie River.

I'm determined to try every walking/hiking trail around Martin County. I had to ask around to find…read morethis one. There are two trails, the North Trail and the South Trail. The North Trail, in my opinion is better. There isn't a lot of shade and most of it is sugar sand, but the sand isn't super soft so it's not that bad to walk on. It's impossible to get lost here. There are numbered markers everywhere along the walking path. There's also a small dog park near the parking lot with different sections for large and small dogs. Now, the South Trail is just bizarre. The first part of it runs along a busy road. Then you have to cross a busy street. Kinda strange, no? Then it loops around and you're in back of someone's house. There's also a lot of glass bottles people have thrown so be careful if you bring your dog here. Guess what? After that there's a SECOND busy road you have to cross. Well now I was just annoyed but the trail got better after that. If that section was longer, I would have enjoyed this trail more but it was wasn't long at all. All in all, I think the North Trail is a lot better, it's quieter and you don't have to cross any streets during your walk.

This is the only dog friendly beach in St. Lucie County. Walton Rocks Beach Park was created so canines can enjoy the beach too and play in the sand and surf. Dogs may be off leash unless they bother someone. I enjoyed meeting Duncan on the beach who was having the time of his life along with his other canine friends. This park also has free parking, a restroom and picnic pavilion but it is not lifeguarded. Walton Rocks Beach is also an area of archeological importance. More than 1,200 fossils including prehistoric horse teeth dating to 12,000 years ago and older have been found along the shores of this beach. Whether you are here to hunt fossils or just enjoy a day out with your best four legged friend, Walton Rocks Beach natural beauty, soft sand, and gentle waves is sure to delight.

The park takes its name from the Lyngate neighborhood built in the 70's and 80's and which is made up of a mix of open neighborhoods, gated and ungated subdivisions with community amenities such as clubhouses and tennis courts, condos, and single family homes. Lyngate Park amenities include a 3/4 acre dog park with separate fenced-in areas for large, medium and small dogs along with shade structure and water fountain, a 36'x40' pavilion with lights, electric, water, two grills and eight 8' tables, a 24'x24' pavilion with four 10' tables, one grill, lights, and electric, two baseball/softball fields, two lighted tennis courts, basketball court with lights, four racquetball courts with lights, restrooms, sand volleyball court, and lighted playground for ages 2 to 12.

The abundance of shade trees is an especially welcome feature during the hotter months of the year. This park is a welcoming and peaceful environment that truly enhances the community spirit of Port St. Lucie. With its wide variety of amenities there is something to appeal to everyone.

Aside from a couple of jungle gyms and a small rock climbing feature, this park has courts and a dog area, ample parking on at least two sides of the park that I saw, and clean restrooms centrally located. We met a few friendly people on our visit and everyone we encountered seemed to be enjoying the park. Beware of signage warning about alligators in the woods on the edge of the park, but there's plenty of distance over a grass lawn between the park and the woods. My daughter made some friends along the way and I was delighted to strike up conversations with some of the parents as well. Great park if you're in the area.

From 2007 to 2012, Port St. Lucie leased the property that is now Winterlakes Park to the St. Lucie…read moreSchool District for the purpose of constructing a temporary school site. The District paid to prepare the land for construction and built the playground. In 2012, the School District allowed the lease agreement to expire and the Port St. Lucie Parks and Recreation Department assumed maintenance responsibilities for the 28 acre property. After holding meetings with the public the city decided to turn the land into a park. Winterlakes Park opened on January 23, 2021 becoming the largest park in Port St. Lucie. Today Winterlakes Park is a well designed park with many popular recreational amenities for residents and visitors of the Winterlakes neighborhood and the Torino area. During my visit I was impressed by how much this park has to offer. There is a baseball field, covered basketball court, dog park with sections for small and large dogs, a paved exercise walkway with fitness stations, picnic pavilions with tables, pickleball court, shade covered playground, soccer field, softball field, tennis court, sand volleyball court, fishing deck on the lake, and restrooms. All of the facilities in the park are meticulously maintained and the park still looks brand new. As I walked the park on the exercise trail I noticed a summer camp using the playground, pups playing in the dog park, and a large number of people enjoying the shaded basketball court. There is so much to do in this park, there is truly something for everyone to enjoy.

Located at the end of Winterlakes Park, a new community park in northern Port St. Lucie, FL. Lots of parking very close to the dog park areas, so you don't have to wander through the whole community park to find the dog area. Fences are high, and the gate lock is also high, so small children cannot get in and out at will. The parks have seating areas for pet owners, and some are under cover, so that's nice when there's a lot of sunshine. The parks seem well well-maintained and are not crowded, possibly because there isn't a lot of publicity about them yet.

The small dog park is just basically one corner of the big dog park. Walking the interior of the fence line is rather simple as it is very flat. There are plenty of old growth trees as well as interesting items like half buried pipes for your dogs to entertain themselves with. There are a few places to sit and there is plenty of shade!

The park is completely surrounded by water providing stunning views and access to water based recreation. The boat ramp is one of the busiest in Martin County and is the closest access to the St. Lucie Inlet. There is a boardwalk that circles the perimeter of the park for fishing, walking, running, and biking. Other park amenities include a playground, outdoor fitness equipment, restrooms, finger piers for fishing, and pavilions available for rental for parties and events as well as personal picnics. This was the first park I have seen with open playground and fitness equipment since the shut down. The proximity to the water makes this a great place to view birds like seagulls, herons, pelicans, crows, and even parrots. During the year the city holds different events here like nights with movies and food trucks. This park is a great example of why I love Martin County. It is the perfect place to put your feet up and just watch the boats sail by. Beauty abounds with access to the waterways and recreational activities. Renew your spirit at Sandsprit.
