Howell Branch Preserve Pavilion

Really well maintained park, playground.
Does not have any athletic grounds like basketball, tennis, etc, but for a nice walk, and get some energy out of a 3 year old, it definitely works.
My only complaint about the park would be the pavilion was really beat up (not that it matters) that was really the only negative for us.
Other than that, this park is pretty solid.

This is a smaller park with a bigger out doors walk through that I define as the highlight of this park. They have a mini board walk with a top that overlooks some forested area. There is a pavilion, bathroom, and playground here. A circuit side walk around a large open grass field hides two downward paths into the forest with some nice trails that are less then a 10 minute walk in total. There are a few hidden spots next to a river for the more adventurous but be careful of snakes, alligators, and mud.

Nice clean park with nice views, a bathroom, water fountain, and Pavillion with shade cover. The play area is good for ages 2 to 9.

Nice smedium sized park with a loop to walk. It seems there is a small dirt trail in the wetland area that you may be able to walk, but I’m not sure since there’s no signage discussing the trail, but the dirt path is easy to see in the trees. There is an open field for playing sports and there is some exercise equipment along the paved walking loop. I would take off a half star because the park is starting to look a tiny bit run down. Trash in plant beds, the wooden door of the mini free library is on the ground, and the park entry door columns could benefit from a fresh coat of paint. I didn’t check the bathrooms.

Ps: as an earlier review mention, one of the slides is till tied off and cannot be used, but there are two other large and small slides to use

Fun park for kids with a large playground structure covered in things to climb, slides etc etc. Great for kids of all ages. Also a pavilion and another covered seating area, plus a huge green to run around in. As a bonus it's almost always quiet when we go there, so you have free reign. It's our go to park with our one year old.

Quiet park with a nice field, playground and a loop to walk with exercise equipment

I LOVE this park for teaching your child to bike ride!! It's not only a clean park w/ample covered picnic tables & decent playground equipment (on astroturf, NOT wood chips) but the ENTIRE park has circular pathways that are perfect for a toddler to ride their bike or tricycle, & every bit of it is fenced in! I'm a Nanny, & I've taken "my children" there numerous times & will do so many more times; SO easy to throw their bikes in the back of my truck & just let them be "FREE" while still being able to keep an eye on the younger ones on the playground equipment!

**Please Note: Way across the park, there is a wooden bridge that leads to a covered pavilion w/picnic tables & there IS a pretty far drop-off into the woods there, so if you do have a child present who may not follow directions to stay on the concrete path, you may need to keep an extra eye on them!**

Nice and cozy park. Very entertaining for the kids and quite suitable for some adult workout too.

A nice well-kept little park. Nice picnic pavilion. It was obvious by the posting that you can reserve the pavilion. Kids playground with equipment. Short walking trail with exercise stations for adults. Class A restrooms. Available parking seems to match the size of the park.I passed this many times and never realized it was there.

My 8 and 4 yr old kids like this park as an alternative to our bigger parks. There is a lot of coming and going because of the bike path, and the shape makes it a little harder to keep eyes on your kids if you aren't a helicopter parent, so it's less relaxing than other parks for me. The kids had a good time for almost 2 hours, so worth trying I'd you've got smaller kids.

The play ground is nice. We had a birthday party there and there was tons of room under the pavilion. There are 6 picnic tables. They play ground is more for older children and there are not swings. There is a big field to play on or have a water ballon fight.

Love this park. Quiet and very well kept and clean. We go often!

Nice to picnic,play soccer,exercise,playground all around great park. If you have under two year old it is pretty high up on the slide with spots that are open and they could possibly fall if you don't keep an eye on them the whole time.

Nice little Park with a play area for kids, pavillion for activities, surrounded by a sidewalk where you can run, skate, etc. With little exercise stops with instructions. My favorite part is going down under the "pier" overlooking the forestry and going through the actual forest where you'll find a little stream/arcarantilla. We saw a little turtle inside the water too and that was cool.

The playground slides can get too hot to use but I like that there is a covered pavilion to sit at and that there is a clean restroom right there.

I never knew this place was here! Kids play area is extensive but watch the slides at noon, they get HOT! There is a nice exercise circuit with work out stops and lots of tree cover on it. Great park!

Great place for the kids to play. We went for a birthday party at the pavilions. Everyone had a great time. Plenty of room and seating for adults and kids. The restrooms were clean and well stocked.

So much to do for the entire family. Walking path with fitness stations to help the novice fitness enthusiasts work on their fitness. With plenty of climbing possibilities for your tiny climber. Also a few options to sit and enjoy a snack with your family.

Love this park and I bring my son to it all the time. Very clean and well shaded..

The perfect size park with a great swing set. There is a fence to keep kids out of the parking lot and the play ground itself has AstroTurf (two pluses in my book).
