A small park in Hollywood, across the tracks from Yellow Green Farmers Market…read more I stumbled (or my fingers did on Yelp) across this park while trying to find a place to do a HIIT workout with a friend. We originally planned to go to TY Park but it was closed off for COVID/Vaccine appointments only. A quick Yelp search later, we decided on Charles F. Vollman Park. This spot is very hidden and most people wouldn't know it was here. It sits in front of an apartment complex and has a sidewalk "trail" that winds across it in different directions. Large trees span the park and offer great shade during any workouts or picnics here. There were a few people walking their dogs and running. We ended up doing our HIIT workout in a little dead end part of the lot which was the perfect spot for it. You can see Yellow Green Farmers Market right across the tracks from this park. I would note that there aren't too many parking spots like other South Florida parks. Still a great place to be one with nature if you find yourself in the area!

This awesome little park is tucked away off one of Davie's backroads & is something that any true…read morelocal would know about. Stretching across only a modest 50-acres, it's the perfect place to unwind within some beautiful nature & it makes you feel as if the city isn't only a stones throw away. Offering free entry, as well, it's a great place to get outside & enjoy your day. Whether you want to walk, fish, exercise or relax, this park is the place to go. It only has one trail but it's sizable. The trail wraps entirely around the crystal clear lake & then some. There's an area with a decent incline/decline in elevation which is about as good as you're going to get in FL. I especially love the massive Australian pine trees that are throughout the entire park. Not only does it provide beautiful scenery & a home for the wildlife, it offers shade as you're on the trail. Keep in mind there's some areas that are totally clear of trees so it definitely gets hot during midday. For the most part, however, I'd say a good 3/4 of the park has some sort of cover/shade you can utilize. This park has been a part of my childhood & I still visit to this day so that speaks for itself. It's always been well maintained which is something I truly appreciate. Guests, for the most part, do a great job at being mindful of their belongings & not leaving trash. The city employees are good about staying on top of it, as well. Overall, I have nothing but great things to say about Wolf Lake & I love coming. Do yourself a favor & find an awesome local park like this one to get outside.

Wolf Lake Park is off the beaten path in Davie . There are a few picnic tables. There is a…read morecovered pavilion with a grill. There were several people walking along the gravel path around the lake during my visit. There was even someone in a motorized wheelchair able to navigate the path. The path is very shaded. There were people fishing. If you're in the area, it's worth a stop for a short visit however it's not really worth going out of your way for.

As such, it has very little shaded areas aside from the covered shelters, playgrounds & amphitheater. I come here couple times a week for the boys soccer events and practice. The lawns are usually well kept and even. It's great for many types of workouts, walks, etc. It's a great spot to catch a sunset on a clear day as well. The bathroom facilities were ok, sparsely located for this sized park.

He got to pet the farm animals, he loved the pony ride, he got to groom the horses, feed donkeys, play with chickens, and ended with some time playing in the playground with friends.

Aside from this super fun event, the ranch offers riding lessons for kids and adults, you can host parties, they offer summer camp for kids, and other special events such as a yoga with horses!

Cute little petting area, clean restrooms, friendly staff.

They all sorts of ducks and geese and fun little animals here that really bonded and love each other horseback riding is a blast here make sure you're clear of what you want because there are a lot of options for horse riding.

I try alot of parks in the area to burn off some calories walking before the summer heat hits hard. This morning it was very cool outside but had to walk along the wet grass through the park since there were no walking paths. Also noticed a small murky canal on the far west side with a posted beware of alligators sign - so no fishing or swimming. Also I would not bring your dogs to this park plus they are prohibited anyways. A small portion of the grass area is burnt but enough fresh green grass to play frisbee. Most of the park is well kept. There is kiddie monkey bars and a few picnic tables but no covered pavilions except for alot of large tree shade. No parking anywhere at the park so good luck with finding a legit spot. No bathrooms here either. Really not a people friendly park, but did burn a few calories walking.

Tara Park is located in the Plantation Acres South neighborhood between Hiatus Road and Flamingo…read moreRoad between the North New River Canal and NW 28th Court. Construction of the neighborhood began in the 1960's and is still ongoing today. Most of the homes are single family one acre lots. Many of the homeowners who live out here own horses. Tara Park also known as Plantation Acres South Park is a large neighborhood park with a lot of trees and open green space. The back of the park borders the Hiatus Greenway so you can see people on horses and bikes as they ride by. Park amenities include swings, a playground with climbing equipment, picnic tables, and benches. It is the perfect spot to fly a kite, exercise, take the lids to play, or have a picnic. There are no restrooms so it is primarily used by neighborhood residents There also is no dedicated parking lot so if you come by car you have to pull off to the side of the road.

I was able to take my time, relax, and actually enjoy being out in nature without feeling rushed. I explored the lakeside, mud flats, and part of the South Trail, and the views from the tower were excellent. I also saw a few different bird species and some butterflies along the way. There's also an exhibit showing a model for a new aquarium that's supposed to open in 2028, which was interesting to see. As a longtime Hollywood resident, I can't believe this was my first visit but it definitely won't be my last.

This small, passive park along the New River recently had its name changed from New City Park to…read moreAbiaka Park in honor of Sam Jones (Abiaka). He was a Seminole-Miccosukee chief, warrior, and shaman. Abiaka became the principal chief of the Seminoles in 1837 during the Seminole Wars. Sam Jones/ Abiaka is famous for leading the remaining 200 or so members of his tribe to safety in the Pine Island Ridge, the highest natural elevation in Broward County. After the Second Seminole War they were able to hide out from the US Government who were trying to send them on the Trail of Tears to Oklahoma under the Indian removal policy. There is a Sam Jones Statue in Tree Tops Park that depicts him leading his people to safety. There is also an identical statue located at the entrance of the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum. Abiaka Park is located in historic Riverside, a stop made by the Seminoles in the 1800's as they traded down the New River. Today the park serves as the paddleboard launch for Sup Pup Paddleboard, a company which offers paddleboard rentals and tours. You can book on their website. The park also has a sand volleyball court, picnic tables, and a couple of benches that provide a view of the water. Other Native American archaeological sites are nearby.
