One of the nicer parks in Winterhaven. Great splash pad for the kiddos with automatic shut ups when nobody splashing. Lots of picnic tables for gatherings and parties. Well-maintained. Relatively new playground equipment. Only exception is they need to replace the swings that are currently missing.
Bathrooms were a wreck and all the stalls were without toilet paper. But I appreciate that they lock the bathrooms at dusk to discourage the transient population.
Beware that there are no gates, or fences, around this park and this park connects with Martin Luther King Jr park and Silver Lake via pathways. So if you have an eloper, keep your eye on them. Also, beware at dusk, the transient population starts to circle. You can see some transient homes in the bushes next to the park.

This little Park was really nice lot of things to do for the kids they were swings slides little playgrounds and there was also a little water area where the kids play and they can refresh from the heat and it was little areas where it was covered so the parents can wait and they have little picnic areas small little and really awesome a lot of things to do a lot of places on the kids have fun get tired out and go home and go to sleep haha it was a really nice and that was here in Winter Haven. Well this is Johnny from adventures with the Riveras until my next adventure

Fantastic playground! City of Winter Haven has hit it out of the ballpark on thus one! Well maintained and clean. Best part is that the entire playground area is covered either in thick Astroturf or padded playground foam. No rocks, dirt, mud or grass stains. Police patrol in golf carts during the day. Lots of covered picnic tables for kids and adults. Water splash park wasn't operating the day we were there buts it looks nice. Great job Winter Haven!!!

This place was a lot of fun but make sure your kids are seriously aware that the splash pad is super slippery. My children wore their water shoes and that really helped but there were children slipping and sliding all around taking spills and someone could be seriously injured. Also be aware that children jump back and forth between the park area and the splash pad so slides, swings, and stairs are often wet.

Absolutely gorgeous venue for my October wedding, and the event coordinator Anaeli is so sweet and wonderful to work with! (However, we did have MULTIPLE random parties filter in and out of the venue the day of the wedding while we were trying to set up and my bridal party as well as myself had to ask them to leave, so there needs to be closed for private event signs put up at the front gate, or at least a closed to the public announcement on their social media pages upon event bookings!) But aside from that, BOOK THIS PLACE! There's no other venue in the general area with the same scenic beauty and classic, vintage charm.

Cute place for weddings. Attended a friends wedding here a few months ago - lots of mosquitos (being by the lake outdoors), but a beautiful property nonetheless. If you are coming for a stroll, i’d recommend coming before sunset as the bugs will be out in full force after sunset. Huge property with lots of cute antique touches - supposedly it has a whopping 112 acres of land (can’t verify that lol).
Plenty of rooms for bridal parties and large area with beautiful vine background for ceremony. Ice machine didn’t work when we went but unsure of bridal party’s prior arrangements with the venue.

A truly beautiful and serene location, a gorgeous Gem is Mackay Gardens near Winterhaven Florida, in Polk County, which has over 500 lakes. Visitors may stroll on numerous paths through the woods, admiring native flora and fauna, walking dogs, and just relaxing. A stunning old home is on the property which the Mackay family lived in, that may be rented for celebrations as well as a pergola area for weddings Views are breathtaking in many places and there is a lovely Demonstration Garden tended by a team of loyal volunteers.

A nice place but not well maintained. There are a lot of branches in the trail that are not disposed of properly. We had fun walking around though, I just think it needs more TLC. We also found fruits here but I don't know if they are edible, they look pretty and delicious lol 😂 If you know they are edible please comment so I can taste them next time. Haha!

The trails are very well shaded by the trees. Very comfortable and beautiful. We got a bit confused following the map, even though it looks easy. The trails are marked, but not that well. Most color marks are painted on trees that are not easy to spot. Overall, I will go again.
