I have passed to place on many occasions and never stopped. Nice dog area and has a great playground for the kiddo. Also has tennis courts. I will for sure go back and bring the doggy. Right off the main road. Be careful of the traffic.

Once you entree the area you can turn left to park your boats or turn right and have fun in the park. There's plenty of parking space, but it does not have a big parking lot. To the left area there are 2 dog parks- one for big dogs and one for small dogs. Both areas are fenced in, have plenty of space for the dogs to run around and are clean. Before you enter both parks you will see the rules to follow. To the right side is the children's park. There are 2 pavilion you can rent to have parties or gatherings. Each pavilion has at least 4 picnic tables and a grill. The small park is great for the little ones. The big park has a 2 story playing area, rock climbing and swings. In this area you will also see a tennis court for free!! Lastly, the bathroom is clean and roomy.

Young Pine Community Park is a nice little find that somehow I have never noticed and all the years…read morethat I have lived here in Orlando. When I pulled in on this early Saturday morning, the parking lot were already filled with people to play on the spirt field. However, I was here to walk around the conservation area. Anyway, Young Pine Community Park also has a children's playground, a dog park (actually two parks, one for larger dogs and one for smaller dogs), a canoe and kayak launch and much more. The Conservation Area had signs spaced regularly throughout instructing that no loitering was allowed. I'm assuming this is more to keep the homeless out from camping here. I mean, is it a park about supposed to be hanging out? Getting close to nature? Again, I am guessing that this is an attempt to keep the homeless from establishing tents in a wooded area. All In all, this is an enjoyable little park. The sporting Fields seem to be the biggest draw, but I enjoyed the little walk around the lake and all.

If you've ever been to Orlando, you likely came across the name Dr. Phillips. From roads and…read moreneighborhoods to schools and cultural venues, his legacy is stamped throughout Central Florida. Dr. Philip Phillips (January 27, 1874 - April 18, 1959), known as "Doc," was a pioneering citrus grower, businessman, and philanthropist. During the 1920s and 1930s, he built the world's largest citrus growing and processing operation. At one point, he owned more than 5,000 acres of citrus groves. His former groves and worker housing eventually evolved into today's community of Dr. Phillips. For more than a century, the Dr. Phillips name has been equated with generosity and community investment. Through Dr. Phillips Charities, which includes Dr. Phillips, Inc. and The Dr. P. Phillips Foundation, the organization has awarded more than $220 million in grants, pledges, and program related investments, supporting countless educational, cultural, health, and community initiatives throughout Central Florida. In 2007 Orange County honored Dr. Phillips philanthropic legacy with Dr. P. Phillips Community Park, a beautiful 43 acre park on Big Sand Lake. Nestled along the scenic Sand Lake Chain of Lakes, the park was developed by Orange County Parks and Recreation to provide green space, recreation, and public lake access to the rapidly growing surrounding communities. Today, the park offers something for everyone. The splash pad looked like an especially inviting place to cool off on this hot summer day. There is also a dog park, basketball and volleyball courts, playgrounds, and the LongHorn Steakhouse Loop Trail where I hiked a half mile trail through 10 acres of sand pine scrub. Along the way I enjoyed peaceful views of Big Sand Lake. This park is perfect for a family outing, a morning walk, or as a place to enjoy the outdoors. It is a fitting tribute to one of Central Florida's most influential and generous members.

This place is such a great neighborhood staple for dog lovers!!…read more The atmosphere is welcoming and social. It's easy to strike up conversations with other dog owners, the staff is very friendly, and management is thoughtful, responsive, and focused on customer service. The dogs have plenty of room to play (both in the big dog area and small dog area), there's someone supervising to keep interactions safe, it's very clean, and there are lots of ways for everyone to cool off.... The misting fans are great, and I love that dogs are welcome inside the air-conditioned restaurant when they (or we) need a break from the FL heat! We tried the pizza this visit and it was definitely better than your typical bar food! The dough was especially delicious. The little details (like the cute restroom signs) are a great touch ....You can tell a lot of thought went into making the place fun and comfortable for both people and their pups. If you're looking for a place where your dog can play while you relax, grab a bite, and meet other dog lovers, BarkHaven is absolutely worth checking out. Thank you, BarkHaven -- we'll definitely be back!!
