Reviews
- ★★★★★over 1 year agoBeautiful 3mile trail around the lake. Lots of birds and other wildlife. Even saw a turtle laying eggs today. Free parking next to the country club
- ★★★★★over 2 years agoAbsolutely love this area! 3 mile paved walkway perfect for running, walking, rollerblading, and biking! Large variety of birds and ducks you can walk by and they pay no attention to you. Plus you just might catch the water skiing show!
- ★★★★★almost 4 years agoGoogle maps is great! I didn't know if there was any parking along the lake but the satellite view shows plenty of parking by the Lakeland County club. The walk around the lake is a little less than 3 miles. There are many water birds to watch. Occasionally there is a bench to sit on. There were 3 or 4 places with water fountains for people and pets. Unfortunately the only restrooms near the lake are the portables near the parking lot.
- ★★★★★almost 3 years agoThis is my favorite place in Lakeland for a peaceful walk. During the summer it gets busier, but understandably so. The winter months here are still beautiful and even more peaceful with fewer people. The grassy areas are clean and well kept. There is adequate walking space and benches along the lake, with many more being on the college side. I sometimes worry about parking, but I’ve never had an issue. The neighborhood alone is gorgeous, the lake is the icing on the cake.
- ★★★★★almost 8 years agoGreat place to enjoy a walk or hammock in the trees or snap a sunset photo of the wildlife with our beautiful town of Lakeland in the backdrop. Highly recommend just to find your special area of ambiance around the water...
