My nephew turned one on Saturday so friends & family enjoyed a lovely day at Pavillion 5 celebrating this precious little boy. Considering it was just few days after Eta came through, the park was clear of debris. The Pavillion was clean and perfect for our get-together. The caterer was a bit late but with snacks set out and the bouncy house for the kids all went well. The lake was beautiful l even with the large alligator hiding near the shore.Lots of other folks were enjoying their day picnicking and playing freebie golf.The roads are well maintained however the Pavillions could be identified better. All in all, this is a nice park.

Beautiful park around the big lake in the middle of the block. Can really spread out and find a spot to enjoy nature or a play area for the kids or a trail to zig around, a grill out area, OR better yet enjoy one of the best and most cared for DISC GOLF courses around.Visit every time I come to St Pete.

Very nice little park! This park has a perfect length trail for families with children and seniors. Often see gators! Lots of nature to view here and for those inclined there are exercise stations and disc golf. From the parking lot there is also access to the Pinellas trail.

Went this time looking for the big gator I shot here a few years back. No gator. However the park was as normal well maintained. A lot of shady areas and pavilions to relax with friends and family. Would highly recommend.

Hosted our baby shower here, loved it! It was a hot day, but the trees and the breeze made it perfect for an outdoor party... All but one of the shelters are reservable, the other being on a first come basis... I would definitely recommend this Park for any special gatherings, because my family has been coming here all my life.

Great atmosphere and a great place to bring your pets to roam and play. There are various work out stations and the view is nice. I was amazed at the natural beauty of nature that is displayed here at this park. Definitely a place I will return to with the family and friends. The county has done a great job preserving this area..keep up the good work guys. It looks nice.

Review №24

This park is an excellent place to do intervals, hit holes in one with a disk, refuel with a picnic, play on the playground, or just sit reading a book outside by the water. The bathrooms are a plus and you can always hop on the big trail next to it.

Beautiful park with multiple playgrounds, walking paths, and a good chance youll see some amazing Florida wildlife including all types of birds, turtles, rabbits, alligators, snakes, and fish. Pretty amazing place! Also has a Pinellas Trail entrance right there inside the park where you can safely leave your vehicle while you walk or bike on the trail. Gorgeous scenery and a visit youll really enjoy!

I love Taylor park!! The disco golf course is a lot of fun, not to mention all of the other amenities offered at this park. The only off thing that I might mention are the mosquitoes, but thats quickly remedied by a can of bug spray.

This is a large course with 3 different pin sets for each hole. Which they change every couple of days. Taylor park just recently replaced all the baskets. The park also offers a bike and pedestrian trail that goes all the way around the lake. Pavilions for parties and 2 playgrounds for the little ones. Its kept clean and I enjoy playing disc golf there.

Had my sons birthday party there. Rented shelter #1. It was by a swing set and a rock climb. Had plenty of room to play football and run around. Had pizza delivered from hungry Howies. The shelter was clean and they had personnel driving around emptying trash and recycling bins. Great place for any party really, and had a beautiful view of the lake.

This park is amazing...just Go! The bridge over the sliver of an island has a picnic table on it with a bit of shade to share. Dont see the alligators near here yet. The rest of the trail area is great. They have even carved out a preservation area for turtles. There is so much more you will discover each time...long wooded timbers lining the lake make for great pix.

Great park to go and play a little baseball with my boys, take a nice scenic walk or just to play at the playground. Watch out for gators on the waters edge if you are walking small pets or children. You could easily spend a few hours here and just enjoy nature

A really nice family Park

Review №93

Its alright fairly clean.You know when you have memories of a place its hard to see it go down hill. Apparently its not a priority for the Pinellas County extension to cut all the grass. Especially within a 100 feet of the playground. Much of the work is done by Volunteers. They as usual are the unsung heros working hard to keep places going. Do the volunteers need to load there mowers and cut the grass too. While the County Comissioners do ... Makes ya wonder

Great for a walk, run, or bike ride. Remember your water bottle as there arent many fountains and a lot of the trail isnt shaded. There are two playgrounds with several shelters and an area to play disc golf. Great views too!

Fun place to walk around and get in touch with nature. Just not to much in touch, while walking we saw a alligator hanging out right at the waters edge along side the walking trail. They have parks for the kids to play in and even a baseball field and a volleyball net. Further in they even have a disc golf course that you can use.
