Nice little park on the north west side of town. The gravel trail is completely flat and exactly a 1/2 mile around the water...A great place to go for a non-hilly jog in Tallahassee! I only gave it 4 stars because it could use an actual bathroom, as well as some shade. However, I love this little park, regardless. Be mindful of alligators when walking the trail, especially if bringing children or pets. Keep your dogs leashed. I stumbled upon this little gator on the grass beside the trail today. Prior to that, I'd only seen them in the water at this park.

It’s an “imagination” park, there aren’t slides or swings but if you can meet up with other parents who have kids it would be a good spot for MULTIPLE kids to play, maybe a good picnic spot. Has a little “pond” (it’s dried up as of rn 11/20/25) you can walk around which is pretty nice but this spot doubles as a dog park so maybe don’t bring kids who aren’t walking yet. The only bathroom is a portapotty and it was clean when we went

This is a nice little park, out of the way. It's quiet, has a nice playground, one small shelter house for picnic perhaps, a nice little trail great for walking or walking a dog.

This is hands-down one of the cutest sensory parks for kids of all developmental stages and ages. We also got to see an alligator and tortoise. The walking trail is filled with fauna, fresh blackberries, and natural habitat.

Nice playground and covered picnic tables. The loop around the park is just under .5 mile. Nice, quiet place to jog or walk your dog.
