This park is gorgeous with an abundance of Cypress trees . 2228 Loch Lomond entrance has a picnic table, beaches and an exercise trail.My son is going to college this month as a freshman. We spend every Saturday at 11 just talking as I am temporarily disabled. It is so beautiful here and serene. I hope you love it as much as I do!

House has potential... I think 1700 is a great price... The handy work is appalling in itself. You can really tell whoever did work on this house is what they were doing...

Fields are nice, but unfortunately everything is fenced off & locked. So it is great for people who pay to be in organized sports. If you want to show up to a soccer field with friends to kick a ball around, you should be prepared to have to jump a fence to get onto a soccer field. (I remember 10+ years ago when that wasnt the case, and this park was great for all people. Sad that it became privatized.) Basketball Courts, Swingset-type stuff, & Trail are the only things available to the general public.

Pretty little park to walk your dog or play Pokémon Go, lol. Plenty of Poke’ stops and gyms. Parking lot is full of holes and has some drainage problems. But I still live it there and so does the dog.

Clean park, everyone is generally respectful and picks up after themselves.Grass turf is heavily used, has some bald spots, and is very slippery when it’s wet.Bring your own chairs, shade, and drinks!

Wish the fields were open for people who just want to kick the ball around with friends but still a great park and nice place to run or play in a league. Fields are really well maintained

Review №32

This is the perfect example of small town quality. Winter Park is the best small town in Florida and this park offers everything kids and families could want to do. Plus the shade the trees here offer make it bearable in the hotter months. If youve never been, bring your family there soon.

I love how big and beautiful this park is. Love that I can go with my family here and everything and everyone is so friendly and sending out such peaceful vibes. Love being able to walk or ride or just sit and relax. I also love how fresh the drinking water is that is an absolute huge plus in my book

Its great when there are not a dozen baseball games, but that happens more often than not. There are about 13 baseball/softball fields, 4 soccer/football fields, a football stadium with a track, a pool in the connected cady way park, a trail, and 2 playgrounds. However the baseball crowd really struggles to move around and park so its like the mall at Christmas when walking the path through the fields - which its uncomfortable to say that 99% of the path is in between the fields. The parking is an uncomfortable and similar situation, with the city putting cones down the streets in some places so cars can navigate for residents, and down the center of parking lots so cars can safely drive, and cutting into the grassy areas that used to be pedestrian outside the fields for even more parking. I watched as two different elderly people had to walk far to their cars today because there was no close parking and no open handicapped spots (there is barely any) and one almost fell over off the curb while someone almost drove over them in order to not have to slow down while exiting the parking lot. The church next to it is sadly losing their yard to the park for more baseball parking. The baseball crowd routinely opens or breaks the churchs barriers to their lots and front/side yard and use it - its just a rowdy, aggressive crowd. Also, there was a large pedestrian area on the side of the park with native plants and old oaks, and a lot of it was clear cut recently as part of the Ys rebuild - its just moving in that direction. It was repaved with wide paths and the amount of paths were doubled, with some of it just for a design in the paths. They added rocks, sod, and big box store plants with signs to stay off of all of it. There is no room for your kids to run and play! Not unless you can find space and safely navigate the parking lots with kiddos to get to the playgrounds. Its just overrun by those people and has gone downhill. Unfortunately the games cannot be spread out over more days or longer periods of time, apparently to make the park usable by people outside of the baseball groups. Lastly, Winter Park Babe Ruth cooks fresh burgers and hot dogs routinely and lets the fat drain onto the pathways openly, leaving a large spot of slick, dark, pathway - be careful not to slip in it and fall in the fat since they dont clean it up!

I was at Showalter Field for a high school track and field meet. They always do a great job hosting. The only down for the day was an overflowing toilet but with about 300 athletes, parents and coaches this is very understandable.

Excellent little park. Ive been here a couple of times, and although I havent used any of its facilities, its a great place to park your car and use the bike trails that run from Baldwin Park all they way to the Orlando Magic Recreational Center on Aloma Ave. Very peaceful and rarely a lot of people there.

I grew up playing soccer here. Plenty of fields but they are usually in poor condition. They also close off fields with any small amount of precipitation. I wish they would make these fields more accessible and maintain them better
