Ocalas parks are great. This one is pretty small, but it does have a walking path, with activities, a sink hole with cave, and a playground. A perfect place to kill time before or after a movie at the theater across the street, or dinner from one of the restaurants in the two adjacent shopping plazas.
Nice park to take small kids, playground, open trails, and a cool natural rock grotto with a small spring, not for swimming, but has a viewing podium and is cool to look at.
Great free park. Other than being hot it was a fabulous afternoon with the grandkids. Clean and well kept, the walkway to the sink hole was fun. There are large fish and turtles in the water. Its a ways from there to the playground, but the kids didnt mind. Swings, slides, merry-go-round and more. There is a nice picnic area too.
Never knew this hidden gem was there. Very near be place, nice atmosphere safe place to walk and see the caves and turtle that lives there.
This is a former underground lake that caved in thousands of years ago. It is a direct link to the Floridan aquifer. Human activity at this site goes back 8000 years by commonly accepted history. Once badly damaged by illegal artifact digging, it is now a beautiful city park.
Ocala never disappoints when it comes to parks. Visited today with our 2yr old son and he loved the playground. The spring area is very pretty and we has fun feeding the fish. If you are into mountain biking, there is a really cool technical skills area with a variety of custom obstacles. Lots of picnic areas here as well and we will bring something to cookout next tine. Amazing how such an awesome park can be tucked away right in the middle of town.
My family enjoyed our time there.it a good meeting place..half way point. well be back.
Nice quiet park.. nature walk, picnic tables, kids recreation area, clean rest rooms
I love Scott Springs because its unique and someplace free to go on a hot Florida day. This place is great but I do wish they had some vending machines nearby.
Love coming here with my daughter she loves looking at fish and turtles!
Not that crowded and I love the merry go round
So gorgeous! Definitely going back to visit. I cant wait to bring my boyfriend and his daughter. I wish Hailey and Grace could be there more than ever ♡♡♡
Love it its quiet clean has places for kid to play and trials for u to explore
Its a nice, quiet area. Wish it were a little bigger but it is beautiful. They also have a playground for kids and a small area with ramps for bikes.
It is a quit place to walk. You can walk, excerise, jog or enjoy nature. Or even have a pick nick.
Beautiful park. Very well maintained. The spring and cave area is so peaceful. Walking track is very nice. Plenty for children to enjoy and parents. The playground was in excellent shape. Love having the all weather exercise equipment placed around for our use. Bike course looked like fun too!! Great job Ocala!!
Its An Beautifully Quant Little Park With A Beautiful Gorge You Can Fish In, 2 Restrooms, Playground For Little Ones, These Interesting Little Cresent Bridges That Dont Go Over Anything, Pathways For Jogging And A Little Outdoor Workout Area.
Good place. Must see.
He has so much fun here
Lovely little spot to visit whilst we camped in Salt Springs
Cute little gem! My sister told us about this place and took us there for a little walk in the park. The cove with caves was so cool! Unfortunately there were small children there dropping a fishing pole in the water over the railing and it wasnt enjoyable to stand there and take in the view with kids screaming and trying to catch these tiny fish that were in the little pond there in front of the cove. I dont think they were supposed to be doing that; but their parents were nowhere to be found. We just left and walked around the park and then left. But, I wanted to say that it was really cute there! We loved the cave area and cove, and I enjoyed learning about the trees on their history boards.
Beautiful walking trail. Playground was being enjoyed by many kids if various ages. Well shaded and plenty if places to rest n reflect. My dog enjoys walking here as well due to the shade and kids to visit.
It was great! With the exception of 3 beer cans in the spring, it was immaculate. Beautiful healthy fish. The surrounding park was very pleasant as well. Will definitely be going back.
This place is amazing to have a picnic with your loved one the one you love
“Neat little park” is a good description. Cool if you have an urge for trick bicycle moves or some sort of mtb using a sort of mini pump track type set up. A loop trail for walking and lots of parking space
Neat little park...it has quite a few picnic areas, most with grills. There is a playground and a walking trail plus bike trail. Bonus is the sinkhole (with fish) at the bottom of a walkway that is very pretty. We enjoyed our day there very much.
Quiet and tables are plenty spaced out!!!
My toddler really enjoys the playground at the back of the park. The bike trails appear to be well kept and I have to see a full trash can, and there is no trash on the ground. If you are out shopping along SR 200/College Rd, this would be a great place to stop and let you child/children let out some energy.
Beautiful park for all ages, great walking trails down to the springs and lots of shade
Neat little park in town. Would be slightly better if the bathrooms were near the playground, but its not so far to decide against the park. Nice walking and biking paths, too.
Beautiful hidden Gem ! Awesome playground for the kids and room to run ! Very clean, bathrooms to. Picnic tables, water fountain and much more. Loved it !
Really nice kids love this park safe place
Nice walking park with a bike change course.
Its A nice Little hideaway to eat lunch close to many stores but youd swear your in faraway Place This is One of the Great Things about Ocala they have everything with a Rural feel...
Great fun, lots of options for exercise and fun.
Fun playground for the kids and nice walking trail.
Cool place! Nice small park!
We had visitors from out of state and took them to Scott Springs Park. It was clean and a little something for everyone the cave area was awesome.
Such a magickal, peaceful park! It has a health trail, a biking trail, a playground, restroom facilities as well as exercise equipment! I love that this park promotes nature education and mindfulness.
Nice paved walking trails and cleaner than it was before.
So much Serenity and beauty in such a small area!
Beautiful area, nice facilities
Nice scenery and a great little playground for the kids
It was a clean quiet & big playground for the kids to play.
Great place for a kids birthday party, my daughter had one there for both of her children and they turned out great!
Very beautiful. Easy walk. Wheelchair access
Beautiful Place for families to come together, picnic tables, For your kids parties,Paths to walk on, benches to sit on to watch birds, squirrels, or just a place to be out in Nature.An area for kids to ride their bike, a cave, some water down by the cave at times.My Granddaughter Dekotah and I wanted a peaceful place to sit and enjoy our subs / chips from Publix, Sunday February 23rd, 2020. So Scott Springs was our place to be. We watched couples strolling the paths holding hands, families strolling from one area to the next.Some people you will find out for their daily walks and there are some exercise tools I believe further down the park.They do have bathrooms, plus there is a Walmart in walking distance of the park, Publix is about a half mile or so down from the park, pizza, wings, many places to grab a bite to eat before you come to the park or for while you are there. So if you are ever in our area come see a great place for you.
Beautiful park and great play areas
Great place to picnic with many tables, walk on the trail, relax. Bring your bike for the bike ramps. Kid friendly with jungle gym. Convenient restroom facilities and pet friendly.
We had a blast. Very nice. Lots of playground choices and the little walk down to the water is cool.
We love this park sometime we go just to get out house
Wonderful location. Nestled right among the business and restaurants... a beautiful slice of nature and fun!
Beautiful and peaceful. Well done Ocala.
First time after visiting Sholom Park
Nice little park in Ocala. Had a nice playground for children and a lot of picnic tables with grills. The grotto was an unexpected bonus. No entrance fee.
Great place to walk your dogs. Beautiful, right in town and its free.
I love walking around this place with my dog and my husband. They have BBQ grills and picnic areas throughout that you can cook at. its open from sun up to sun down. I have riding skill Trails there to that are neat looking we didnt have a trail riding bicycle but if we did I would take it there. They also had kid area for playgrounds we didnt really go over there much cuz we had the dog and you cant go over to the playground with a dog. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Love the scene of my life!
Great park! Great trails... Clean and small enough to walk about fully.
Nice place to walk my dog.
This Park is so fun. The play area looks like a giant tree. Fun for all to have!
Amazing park!! I would love to go here more often!!
Not much to do here, but it was ok
Such a fun environment
Its ok for a dog walk but other then that im tired of picking up after grown folk who drop trash everywhere like wow
At first glance I was not thrilled, but as I explored more I found nicely paved trails, a great playground for kids, and the beautiful spring and cave area. The bike skills trail is very cool, and the exercise areas available on the paved path are few but excellent. Very unexpected!
Beautiful peaceful park. Has a nice playground but the swings are a bit separated from the main playground area and right next to the entrance, which made me feel uneasy (easy for kids to wander off).
It was just so pretty to walk around and relax
Nice quiet little park. Plenty of exercise equipment and walking mixed in with a pretty cool playground for the kids. Has a small spring to see and a couple caves as well. Worth the experience to come visit
This is a decent park if you have kids. There isnt much to do otherwise.
Nice little quiet, peaceful park and conveniently located close to shopping and plenty of dining options. Kids love it here
Always very pretty and quiet
Nice playground for little kids. Cool little bike course.
Great place to go jogging! Very peaceful and pleasant.
Its a beautiful place to walk your dog
It was an okay spot to stop if you dont plan to spend too much time. Not very impressive. There is a playground for kids, a small pavilion, shallow sink hole with spring water,and a small winding bike trail.
Wonderful park. Lots of shade on paths.
Interesting spot. Glad we stopped.
Really nice quiet park
Great natural spring and recreational park located in the urban Ocala ~ ample parking, trails, water fountains, bathrooms and Linux tables
I think a beautiful place I love the water there
They have a child playground, a few work out items around a looped walkway, and a nice little spot with water that when caught on the right day is a cool view. I believe they put it a bike trail as well, but Im not 100% sure.
Its such a beautiful and peaceful place.
Amazing park with lots of nature to enjoy. Also some playgrounds.
Very nice local park!
Very decent but very small park. Between bike and walking paths is only 1.25 miles. A small area for tricks on your bike, and a couple of body weight exercises are available.
Gorgeous park! Came for a nice afternoon stroll and wished I had a bicycle to hit the trail with! Well maintained, and peaceful
Beautiful park and bike ramps jogging and camping exc. Family park nice
Nice waking trails, bike ramps and playground. I enjoy looking at the spring with tadpoles and the cave at the end of the boardwalk.
God please change the name of this park to cant effen go swimming park. This place blows even for free. Dont waste time if looking to swim.
This is by far one of my favorite parks! Great for a quick walk on my lunch break, or hanging my hammock on a day off... the kids love the park and I cant wait to try out the bike skills trail!
It was very nice great playground and nature trail nice there a was also a mountain bike obstacle course very nice
