Bonnet Springs Park

This is a truly special place anytime of the day. With no shortage of shade, there is always a place to cool off. There are many areas for the children to enjoy. The paths are a beautiful way to enjoy nature.

Went here a bit before noon on a Saturday and it was such a great surprise. It's really spread out with some great walking paths. Lots of places to stop and look at cool views. Had a decent number of people there but still peaceful. The raised walkway was pretty epic. Saw some gators. Tiny little nature center with some displays. Def recommend a visit.

Love this place! Great place to walk around, longboard around, bike around, stroller around, tons of trails and areas to explore. I went once when I was pregnant a couple years back and I remember seeing the cutest playground that I knew a young toddler would enjoy. Upon returning today, I did a ton of google searching and could not find the name of the area I wanted. Today I found the little play area and am attaching photos!! This kiddo area is perfect for little ones who aren't quite big enough for the big playgrounds but still want to be involved. My son is 19 months and we spent about an hour in this one area, Rodda Family Playground

This place is absolutely beautiful and perfect for families. The grounds are peaceful and well-maintained, with a great mix of nature, art, and interactive spaces for kids. The treehouse area is a huge hit—unique, shaded, and thoughtfully designed—while the playground installations are creative and different from anything you usually see. We loved walking along the boardwalk by the water and spotting wildlife along the way. The sculptures and art displays are engaging and educational without feeling stuffy, and everything feels very intentional and inviting. There’s plenty of space for kids to explore while adults can relax and enjoy the scenery. It’s a great spot for photos, a casual stroll, or letting kids burn off energy in a safe, clean environment. Whether you’re local or visiting the area, this is definitely worth stopping by. A really well-done space that blends nature, play, and art beautifully.

We finally got around to go to Bonnett Springs Park. It was absolutely beautiful. From the tree hammock to the walking paths. Also, the Watson Gallery was spectacular. The train history display was wonderful & so enlightening. Every person who worked on any part of this Park did a wonderful job. By the way there are refillable water stations throughout the park. I would recommend it anytime.
