    I visited again and still think it's a great park. There is a lot of shade along the 1 mile loop walking path. Dogs are allowed in the path. People and dogs are not allowed in the water. There is plenty of parking.

    I love this little park. There's a beautiful lake with a path that you can walk on that circles around the lake. There are also a few separate trails off the main path that are cool to explore. A good portion of the path is shaded which makes the walk around the lake even nicer. The thing I like most is that it's never overly crowded. On a recent visit I saw people picnicking, people lying on a hammock they attached to two trees, people walking and jogging and pet owners with their pups. On a previous visit I even saw some people with their horses in the water! It's a great little place to just go and enjoy the day!

    This is one of my all time favorite parks. It's very dog friendly. You can picnic, lay down or sit under the shade, sightsee the neighbor's cows, walk, jog/run, meditate, and more. There are many trees so it helps keep the park not too hot. The restrooms are clean most of the time I've gone. I love the big lake and wildlife.

    Great views. Nice Sunday nature walk with the family. Plenty of fishing spots. We had hours of fun walking around soaking in nature. Great for small picnics & lunch dates. Bathroom & park is well maintained.

    Such a hidden gem! This trail is about 1.5 miles total ( per my applewatch)--surrounded by beautiful trees that make the whole walk feel peaceful and refreshing. I passed a few other people with their dogs on leashes, which added to the nice community vibe. It's honestly the perfect spot to disconnect and reset. It doesn't even feel like you're in South Florida--. Highly recommend if you're looking for a little nature break.

    Hidden Gem minutes from the hustle and bustle of University Drive. What a pleasant park space to walk and enjoy the outdoors.

    Love this park! Discovered this park while needing to research bugs for my college science program. Such a cool variety of critters if you're interested in looking at them. There is a walking trail around the whole lake, that's about a good 20 minute walk. Sometimes the lake is open to do activities but sometimes it's closed. It's so pretty to just walk around and enjoy the outside. Definitely give it a visit if you like getting fresh air and exploring!

    What a lovely park . I felt like I was in the Pacific Northwest with all the pine trees . This is a great family park . I felt very safe running around the park . The park is about a one mile lap, I went there to run 3 miles and I was easily distracted by the beautiful views of the lake and the horses around . It is common that people ride horses around the park so you will run into horse poop. It's a nice park to brings your dogs as well . They have a few picnic tables as well .

    What a lovely place for a run/walk around a giant lake. Bring your dog, they'll enjoy the trail. Watch out for horse poop!! Lots of horse poop, so much. It almost becomes a game to dodge it at one point. The trail itself is beautiful, say hi to the cows. Lots of joggers taking advantage of the shade path due to the large trees. Free parking, great park!!

    This park is my absolute fav!!! It reminds me of North Florida and is almost like my escape from real life. This park is perfect for a casual stroll, walking big dogs, photoshoots, (my sister even got engaged here!), horse riding, or picnic dates with significant others or just friends. Wolf Lake is actually my go to spot for a picnic, and I've brought countless friends here so they can experience the serenity of the lake and the trees. Only caution: Watch out for horse poop. It's on the trails but easily identifiable. If there's any park or lake to check out in South Florida, it's this one!

    I came here to get a few photo shots of my beautiful wife and I was surprised by how nice it was considering it's location. After doing a quick search to find a nearby park, we zipped into this place which we came to find out was a little hidden gem. The park is beautiful with a nice walking trail, picnic tables, fishing area, a playground, and open fields for recreation. The park is also home to (you guessed it) Wolf Lake, which is a large sparkling lake that I briefly witnessed someone fishing. There were other water-based activities available as well. We got a kick out walking with some of the ducks that weren't too scared when we got close haha. The park seems like it provides a peaceful and natural environment for visitors to enjoy. If we were ever in the area again, I wouldn't mind going back. It's a great option to spend a day outdoors with family and friends.

    The park is super serene. It almost felt like you have left Florida for a little bit. The lake is gorgeous but it was closed for water sports today. The 1.1 mile hike was super pretty with picturesque views of the lake as you continue your walk.

    Just looking for a nice park to walk the dog and the boyfriend ;) I came across this park, it's nice and quiet, beautiful walk around a clean lake. Horses and lots of other dogs around. Loved it!

Plenty of parking to start your adventure and be ready to explore and be amazed with each step. It offers many trials and paths, paved and unpaved for the adventure seekers. Might see a nice horse rider as well as they have a horse trail through the park. Fully shaded trails allowing you to be engulfed in nature and local wildlife. We saw an armadillo which was cool. Lovely variety of botanical species that's keeps you intrigued. Very peaceful and zen which is great for relaxation and meditation. Welcome center offers a wealth of information and artwork and a history museum allowing you to absorb and increase your knowledge of the area. They also offer indoor rented space for functions. Lovely park for a great hike and walk or for relaxation as you sit in the many rocking chairs staring into the lagoon with tranquility!

No noise except the beautiful sound of birds shirping. Have a sit on one of their benches and enjoy a moment of introspection and thinking. Stroll down the many walkways and trails and enjoy nice lake views and untouched old trees that have branches stretching wide and low with spanish moss hanging. Dreamy almost ghostly like vibe. The visitor's center is big and has a museum exhibition inside about tribal history. Wish it was closer to home otherwise this would be my go to meditation park. Just a peaceful and beautiful place.
