This park is in a great location, just a couple minutes from the shopping area in Sanford. There’s a ton of area to run and even a place to play volleyball. The slides were, of course, a big hit. And my son loved the play car. While one car was missing the area as a whole looked very well maintained. There’s lots of interactive stuff on the playgrounds as well. This is one of the first parks in the area where I didn’t notice any ants. The only thing I would mention is that, while the play areas are pretty well shaded, the slide in smaller playground is in direct sunlight most of the day.

Fun little park.Has a hill/ track for Derby Car Races so can walk on it when not being used. Not as picturesque as some parks but has nice play grounds, BBQ areas, place to run and more.I find the people there very friendly and often visit to walk my dog. He loves it!

I loved Derby Park mainly because the kids loved it. The bathrooms were clean and there were two playgrounds..one for little kids and the other for bigger kids. They are both covered and out of direct sunlight. Which is awesome since we live in FL. There is plenty of room to run around. My 2 year old and 4 year old both enjoyed the bigger kids playground. They also have 2 cars on bouncy springs.

Nice little park. Mostly go there to play volleyball. Wish they would maintain it a bit better. Ended up hurting my foot on the court because of a root that has made its way onto the court.

My youngest used to race his derby cars here for Boy Scouts. Hence the name. I like going to picnics here. It’s out of the way and always empty. It’s a really cute park.

Nice clean park. I bring my dog on a long leash and let him play catch. At dog parks he tends to stay close to me here in Sanders off ahead of me on his leash and enjoys himself. There is a covered pavilion, a small exercise course, playground equipment and volleyball court.

Review №51

A very nice, well maintained park. Modern and safe equipment for kids of all ages. Honestly, my only complaint, and the reason for only 4 out of 5 stars, is that is right next to an elementary school, so there is usually a crowd of people there. It made it a little difficult for my 2 year old to play without getting pushed around, but we still had a good time.
