Don’t let the landscape of the long driveway fool you, the gardens are beautiful. We had a great time! Definite recommend. We hit up the gardens the week they closed and were able to experience some great fall colors.

We bought our souther Florida pass here and spent a few hours exploring. We watched an imax movie about dinosaurs, and did the playroom area, but that we decided was for younger kids if say 6 and below. There were a couple exhibits that were down, but otherwise a great place to visit.
We got there on a weekday in the summer and didn’t expect too many kids but there were a couple summer school programs visiting. Once the morning group left an afternoon group arrived. The center has the capacity to handle a bunch of kids though so there was no issue.

We had a great time at the park and lucked out to be able to get the shade right next to the sandy beach. Bathrooms are there and have room to change, bottle filler, a pebble playground (shoes are needed). I recommend!

Such a great park with paved and no. Paved trails, A ropes course, a lake, they hold orienteering meets here and a permanent course exists too. This park is fantastic.

Love the trails and nature in the park in addition to the playground for the kids
