    Cool hook on all signage at Easterlin.
    Doug B.

    For the disc golfer, Easterlin Park has plenty of variety for both long open shots, water hazards, and short game through the woods. A solid 4 star for south Florida. So Easterlin Park was the first disc golf park I ever went to when I first moved to south Florida. This south Florida 4 star for disc golf would be a 3 star if it wasn't for the marketplace. Namely, south Florida in general lacks a good solid foundation for disc golf courses aside from a couple of well known outliers. Easterlin opens up on hole 1 with an across the water shot which weaves back and forth into and out of the woods up until about hole 5. A couple of bold across the water shots and a few open terrain shots, Easterlin has no shortage of places where you can lose your disc in the water, woods, plants, or any of the wandering wildlife present at the park. Aside from the technical aspects of the course, it has a solid foundation. All of the holes have signage posted and each hole has one, if not two cemented pads for takeoff. All that said, the course itself could be a wee bit better maintained. Apart from disc golfing, the park is solid for families and sees a lot of traffic for parties, grill, and general festivities. A little shady part of the neighborhood before you get in, but once you arrive a great place to bring friends and the fam. 4/5 (rated for disc golf) because: 1: this place gets a star on handicap, mostly because south Florida has a shortage of good disc golf parks. 2: a good balance of challenge, ease, water traps, and general woodzieness ensures to keep you on your toes when throwing a disc, trying not to lose it. 3: the course itself has a good foundation, proper signage and tee off pads are cemented. 4: the park is in high use, telling that it is of value to the community. 0: losing a star here, because of general messiness of some parts of the park, and it's generally average feel.

    This place is amazing. I love it, I bring my father here often. The campgrounds is immaculate. I think it's hidden gem, it's nestled away on streets where you normally can't even see it.

    I never even knew this county park existed until I passed a sign for it and decided to make a side trip to check it out. What I found was a 46.6 acre park with cypress trees, some of which are over 250 years old! Like other Broward County Parks there is a $1.50 admission charge on the weekends. There is a large lake in the center of the park with the road circling it. The park offers a playground, over 45 camping sites, basket ball court, volleyball, disc golf, a one mile woodland nature trail, picnic shelters, tables, and grills. The park is on the Great Florida Birding & Wildlife Trail so it offers refuge to many kinds of birds. Unfortunately it was pouring rain on my visit but I still managed to see many birds, lizards, and a really large iguana. The rain didn't seem to deter the wildlife or the disc golf players. I was surprised to find so much to do in a park I had never even heard about it. I plan to come back and spend some more time in the future.

    Beautiful park nice path through a woody area and very nice playground!! Watch out for alligators.

    It's too bad the park can't open the automatic gate on-time. up keep of the disc golf course is very poor.

    Overall fun experience. I booked a tour through viator which included hotel pickup. The pickup was…read moreon time and the driver narrated some fun facts about the everglades on the short ride there. We visited on a Saturday so it was busy as expected. There is no shade on the grounds so much of the time was spent standing in the hot sun. Waiting to get into an airboat was a bit chaotic and tiresome. There were shade canopies along the queue but they were not deployed for some reason. Staff seemed a bit disorganized, groups were confused on where to go and given mixed directions from staff members. The experience on the boat was nice and we saw a variety of wildlife. The captain was knowledgeable and spotted alligators quickly. The gator show was fun but short. The host Paul was funny and engaging, the entire audience was captivated. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. Our highlight was getting to hold a baby alligator and knowing that our money was going to one of the only no kill gator rescues!

She gave us some history of the Everglades and was great about finding us gators. The airboats only cover a very small circle portion of the Everglades, which was the only disappointing part. I was hoping there would be more open canals to float/drive down to get more of the airboat experience. The time on the water is about 45 minutes. We also got to stick around to catch the alligator show hosted by the Gator Boys. Our package also came with a pic with a baby alligator which was cool to hold. It did feel a bit like an assembly line, even though it was just our group taking the pics, where we didn't have time to hold the baby gator or ask too many questions about it. Def stop in the back to see the albino gators and other wildlife.

It feels much more relaxed and less crowded than Fort Lauderdale Beach. Right across from the beach, the main strip along Commercial Blvd has a bunch of restaurants, bars, ice cream spots, and small local shops. It's very walkable and has that classic laid-back Florida beach town vibe. We loved just strolling around after the beach, grabbing food, and enjoying the atmosphere. If you want a quieter, charming beach area with plenty to do but without the chaos, this is definitely worth visiting.
