    One of the best parks in Brevard County. Has beautiful views, shade from various trees, ample benches to lounge on, and not to forget that there are several different kinds of courts to play on in this wonderful park.

    This park is very popular! I feel like different events are going on here each week. There is a cute little park for the kids to play, there is a lot of different horseshoe areas, volleyball nets, ponds, and covered shelter areas. I've seen a lot of people go there for parties. They even had a bounce house delivered there.

    What a nice park. The reviews said the rangers were not so nice, but the ranger we bumped into looked to be on his lunch break, but he was so nice to help us with directions. We came for the Blueberry Festival and it was so nice to see everyone getting back to normal. It was such a nice day outside, too. The land is huge and there's a big pavilion to hold events. Parking was FREE it said with the flyer, but I think it was free anyways.

    We came to Wickham Park to experience the Brevard Renaissance Fair at the end of January 2021. I have not been to a Renaissance event for a while and looked forward to seeing what they had to offer. The 391-acre park is a perfect location for an event of this grandeur. Covid-19 measures are in place; however, there is plenty of room to move about and away from crowds to take a mask break. Be sure to review the event program provided upon entry. The program includes the storyline for the event (The King is Here), the event theme (changes each weekend: Pirate, Fantasy, Hero's realm, and Celtic), times and places to see shows (glassblowing, fighting, forging, juggling, etc.), the vendor list (glassware, clothing, leather, metalwork, etc.), where to find ATM's, the information booth, and lost & found. Ticket prices: - Pub Crawl (separate from admission): $35 - Adult: $23 - Student: $20 - Child: $17 - Leashed Pet: $12 - Children under 4: Free Activity and entertainment are endless as long as you can forget the outside world for a while and just enjoy the festivities. We loved strolling through the shops to admire the well-made clothing and jewelry. I consider many of the items for purchase affordably priced; however, most of the Renaissance-themed clothing, boots, and jackets were way out of my price range (hundreds of dollars). Regardless, I can appreciate the quality of materials needed to create these beautiful products. There is a beer & wine vendor with a minimal selection of adult beverages ranging from $6 to $9. When you're ready for a snack, there is a picnic area where pizza, subs, scotch eggs, shepherd's pie, fish-n-chips, soft drinks, ice cream, burgers, corn dogs, and more can be purchased. Our favorite festivities included: Fire Whips and Swords, The CRAIC show, Valkyrik, The Lady Victoria, Johnny Phoenix, Knightwings, and the Joust. We also had a blast hanging out with the camel, goats, monkey, and boar at the petting zoo. We had a blast at this event! The staff and vendors evoke an authentic environment that encourages guests to participate in the festivities. Renaissance lovers travel from near and far to be part of this event, and many of them are dressed to the Renaissance nines, which makes for great photo ops. If you have never given the Brevard Renaissance fair a chance, definitely plan to stop in to check it out next season. It makes for a fun day out with friends and family, plus it's a beautiful time of year to be outside in Florida.

    Such a cool experience. We went here for a taco festival and enjoyed the park very much. They have horse stalls and a lot of open field area for events. There is also a lot of outdoor activities for you to do with your family. We had so much fun!

    Nice pavilions and such, but the trails are great. Decided to try out the trails on the Western side. Beautiful white sand and a variety of flora. There is some litter in the area. A few short sections are a bit boggy.

    Nice park. Plenty to do. There's trails, a dog play area, picnic areas, ponds etc. They have events from food truck days, renaissance fair, x-mas lights, cultural festivals & more. The park is pretty well maintained. They could update the kids' play area. They have a bathroom so you don't have to use porter potties. Great location.

    I was at this park yesterday checking it out for an event I'm doing I'm March of 2022. The park ranger, John, is a great guy, also a Retired Navy Veteran.... John showed me the camping area and the grounds. I was impressed by the cleanliness of the park. Plenty of facilities and power for the event. There's an Amphitheater with a stage large enough to hold a full scale concert. Can't wait to go back in a few months to start The planning for the event.

    We love this park! It's huge with tons of things to do. They have a camp ground , dog park, fishing pond ,playground and horse shoes. There Is always something going on there.

    Dog park has 2 separate sections for small and large dogs. Has chairs for the owners, a toy box and water bowl .right outside the dog park is a pet washing station and a paved walking path that goes around the park. The paved walking trail around the park is 1.5 miles, its nice and clean, has doggy bag stations and plenty of trash cans along the way. On the east side of the park there are additional paths that lead into natural trails. These paths are not paved. Only thing i dont like is there are no maps to keep you on the the trail, considering the trail has alot of other trails that lead to a camp site, natural trails and so on.

    Very nice park...with lots of open space. There is a huge sidewalk around the whole park, dog park, pavilions, etc. There is a lot to do there with a wide variety. They have a great Christmas light show as well.

    Parked in the shade just before the entrance of a beautiful walking trail, looking out towards the playground area and swimming lake.

We saw a few gators too . It does get loud so they offer ear protection but I really liked taking in the whole experience! By the time we got back basically all of the tables were taken and the live music had started. Some people like there so much they even take their own chairs to enjoy, which is probably what we'll be doing if we decide to go back!

We purchased tickets onsite in the gift shop (no online reservations), which is a curiosity in itself. Gator-related paraphernalia, fishing gear, and actual baby gators in a tank (???). The grounds also include a restaurant, observation deck, and outdoor dining area. Bring bug spray for the mosquitoes! Captain Shane was a great guide. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and drives like a pro. I NOW KNOW THAT BOATS CAN DRIFT??? SO COOL. My partner's mom was clinging on for dear life LOL. Saw so many gators!!! Apparently January is one of the best months to see wildlife :D Would definitely recommend and would come back again! NOTE: Remember to bring cash to tip your captain!

    We had a great time at Long point campground! The sites are spacious, and every one comes with a…read morefire pit, picnic bench, and power outlets which made it easy to relax and enjoy the outdoors (while still being able to charge our phones!) We reserved a site with water access. Our site easily fit two large tents, and the overall atmosphere was peaceful and quiet. The bathrooms were as clean as a campground bathroom can be, but the shower water pressure could definitely use some improvement. There's also a small store right at the entrance, which was handy for grabbing snacks or ice. Our only real issue was with the check-in process. We arrived after sunset and, despite waiting twice, there was no one in the front office. Since we'd already paid online, we decided to head to our site and set up. The next morning, we tried again, but still no one was around. Eventually, we flagged down a staff member who was not very welcoming and came off as rude when we asked to check in. Having someone available at the front office, especially after dark, would make the experience smoother for guests.

    We go camping here every Memorial Day with a group of friends. It really is a wonderful campground…read more Almost every site is waterfront and most have access to launch your kayaks directly. The prices are pretty reasonable, about $50 a site for water and electric with a firepit and table at each site. The view is beautiful and we almost always see dolphins and manatees swim by. We usually book our site a year in advance but they recently changed the policy that non-residents can only book 6 months out so we will probably have a little more trouble getting a site. There is not a lot of shade so it can pretty hot and the mosquitos and noseeuns can be very intense even during the day. I ran my thermocells almost non stop this trip. But the view makes it worth it. And no visit to longpoint is complete without a stop at the store at the entrance to get the super delicious fish dip. It's a little pricey but yummy!

I put a call into the county & the Park Ranger, Doug came over quickly & remedyed the problem. Again he was very pleasant. People like those make full time RVing comfortable. The rv sites are sandy & are nicely sized, situated & private. Each one has a fire ring & patio table. Far enough away but close enough to Route 1 & about 15-20 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. Vero Beach is close by as well. It is soothing calming & quiet here, every once in a while a plane flies over & parachuters exits the plane & you see the chutes open & colorful. There are walking trails & a boat a canoe boat launch.

There Is a dock where you can look over the water. I believe there is also a hiking trail. Here you may see some wildlife such as the agressive racoon, the timid squirrel, noisy armadillo, lots of birds chirping away, if you're lucky you might get to see a venomous snake however you're most likely to see black racers and corn snakes. Now you might think the agressive racoon is cute and cuddly animal but don't you dare try to pet him cuddle him or feed him. As a matter of fact the raccoons will show up your campsite during daylight hours but don't be fooled, this is a reconnaissance mission. Once everyone goes to bed, they come back. They revisit the sites that had the best goodies. They will open your coolers and go through your trash.

    I love Florida's deep connection to the space program so I was excited to finally visit Space View…read morePark in Titusville, one of the best places to appreciate the legacy of the space program. Dedicated in July 1994 through a partnership between the City of Titusville and the U.S. Space Walk of Fame Foundation, the 2.63 acre park honors not only the astronauts who made history but also the thousands of engineers, technicians, and support personnel whose work made the nation's space program possible. Space View Park is located on the Indian River, less than 15 miles directly across from the launch pads at Kennedy Space Center. This gives the park outstanding views of rocket launches while serving as an outdoor museum celebrating the achievements of the U.S. space program. It is the only park where you can walk through the entire history of the manned missions that launched from nearby Kennedy Space Center. The idea for the Space Walk of Fame began in 1988 when a local physician proposed creating a project to preserve the history of America's space program. That vision led to the formation of the Space Walk of Fame Foundation and eventually to the creation of Space View Park as the centerpiece of the memorial. Over the years, the park has grown with the addition of several large monuments. The Mercury Monument, featuring the astronauts' handprints, was dedicated in 1995, followed by the Gemini Monument in 1997. The Space Shuttle Monument was added in 2002 to recognize the workers who supported the shuttle program, and after eight years of planning and construction, the Apollo Monument was completed and dedicated in 2007. In addition to the monuments there is a restroom, boardwalk, picnic pavilions, benches, and a 85 foot pier for fishing. The park was also designed to treat stormwater. Runoff from the surrounding 114 acres of commercial property is captured in a wet detention pond that prevents sediment and floating trash from entering the Indian River Lagoon. It also removes nutrient that would harm the ecosystem of the lagoon. The park has free street parking but no shade so try not to come on a day when it is 105 degrees out like I did. The Gemini monument requires a short walk and it is much easier when it is not so hot out. Space View Park adjoins Veterans Memorial Park on the Indian River waterfront, where you can often find manatees in the colder months. I found this park to be a meaningful place to reflect on the remarkable accomplishments of America's space program while enjoying one of the area's most scenic waterfront settings. The handprints were especially poignant reminders of some of the astronauts no longer with us.

    The park sits on a finger canal that leads directly to the Indian River Lagoon. There are…read more monuments scattered throughout the park for Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, and space shuttle programs, with the 'In the Line of Duty' memorial for fallen astronauts. People gather at this park not only to gather historic data, but to view the Kennedy Space Center rocket launches something that is on my bucket list. No public restrooms here and vagrants linger in the area.
