P Phillips Community Park

Love taking my pups to the dog park, everyone there is always nice and the dogs are all great. It’s an awesome park. Very clean.

Have not been here in a about 2 years… I get the $ 1 charge for everyone now no big deal!!! BUT why would you take away the table benches away and replace them with lounge CHAIRS??? This is not a resort pool !! 4 benches to sit at and 15 lounge chairs? sorry but WTF! Parents lounging out watching kids and holding chairs??? Parks and taxes??? GOOD LUCK and NEVER AGAIN!!!

Pretty good splash pad (closes between 2 – 3 for cleaning) but I have been to better. Just could use some more interactive water toys rather than water just running. My 3 yo loved it.
The play ground was great.
It is tucked in behind a subdivision and public school. The address above is for a private pool/​tennis club. Keep driving on the same road and you will see a blue sign.

The best park for the kids and parents around Orlando!
With 2 beach courts, a huge splash pad, barbecue area, restrooms and an awesome playground with a lake view.
My kids are already asking to come back tomorrow again.

Everyone I bring my family to this park I feel so good about the decision to move to west Orlando, the cleanliness and the quality of the people who live in this area is what I have been looking for, now as for the Dr Phillips park I will call it the best hidden secret in our zip code, cute little park but with bunch of activities and all on the lake, volleyball, basketball, fitness trailers, dog park, kids water park and more to offer.

Just a beautifully maintained park. Nice open view of a lake. There is a dog park and trails to jog and cycle
The bathrooms are clean

Love it here! My boyfriend takes his dog here all the time and the dog park is great! They have an area for small dogs and one for big dogs. Some of the dogs can get a little wild, but overall it’s a great place for them. There is also a dog wash station in between the two separate areas, which is nice because dogs definitely get pretty dirty here. The large park also has a splash pad that looks like it’d be pretty fun for kids and lots of space. It sits on a gorgeous lake, making for a great view while you’re there. I

I had been really excited about visiting this park with my toddler. I had heard all about the playground and the splash pad, and today turned out to be the perfect day to try it out.
When we arrived, there was a hand written sign that said splash pad closed for maintenance. I guess the only way to have known that in advance would have been to call, but that’s generally not what people do when visiting a park. There were other families that had also driven a ways looking to play in the splash pad area that were disappointed.
My biggest issue was the playground. There is a good deal of playground equipment, however my daughter could experience none of it because it was scorching hot. There was really no shade available; what was supposed to be a cover didn’t actually provide any coverage over the equipment during the main part of the day. I don’t understand why a playground would be built without adequate coverage in the Florida sun.
We ended up leaving within 10 minutes of arriving and headed over to Shadow Bay park, which was outstanding!

This is an awesome splash pad. It’s definitely our favorite in the area. It’s only a dollar to get in. There’s a great playground and other sports fields available for use. Parking is free. There is a great view of the lake. Looks like it would be a nice place to have a party.

This is my favorite park in Orlando! It is tucked away behind several subdivisions off of Apopka Vineland road. It has everything for everyone! They have a dog park for big and small dogs, several covered pavilions, a playground, soccer field, softball fields, volleyball and basketball courts, and a huge splash pad for the little ones. This well maintained park is ideal for working out and walking, as it has a trail that goes around the park and even a hiking trail. Did I mention the awesome view on the lake? I come out to walk, because it’s never too crowded. My sister held my nieces birthday party there and everyone had a great time. Because of all of the amenities, the kids (all different ages) always had something to do. If you haven’t been here before, you should check it out!

Love this park especially during the week when all the older kids are in school lol.
They have two play areas one for the little kids and the other for the younger kids. I like that idea however you still get the older kids in the younger kids play area. It was a windy day we should’ve brought a kite however there was another mom there that had one and was nice enough to share. You have a perfect view of the Orlando eye and a great place for a picnic. There are several picnic tables great to bring the kids on a cool day or even a hot day and have them go to the splash pad.
It was closed today as they were remodeling it but can’t wait to bring the kids to play there
Amazing park especially when the older kids are in school

That’s a great place to go with dogs or children. But it’s nice to make a family party, it’s a beautiful place with a beautiful view

This park is so beautiful! I love just driving in as the trees and grass is always looking beautiful!
I first visited this park to go to the splash pad. The kids love it! There’s a side that is for the little kids and the other side is for the bigger side, but it always gets mixed. I usually have fun playing through the area with my son too. It’s a nice refresher for a hot day! They have several tables around the splash pad area to put your items down. They have bathrooms next to splash pad, but you don’t have to walk around the outside of the fenced area to get to the restrooms.
Recently we visited and just went to the park area. The only bad thing is that the items they have at the park get very hot if its sunny out, so my son wouldnt go down the slide because it was hot. but they have a seat that I’ve never seen that the child sits in and spins around, and some other play items that I’ve never seen as well.
They also have a sand area with volleyball courts which the kids also have fun playing in.
Their are several small pavillion’s around the park and several tables around the playground area.
The background is a beautiful setting as its by a lake. Its also a beautiful park to take photos as i have done this and have seen some awesome photos taken there too.

I DO have a child. Still no dog. They DO have a nature trail, but you have to hunt for it. Nice playground for the toddler. Nice view of the lake. Still wish they had paddle boats. :-(

I love this park and their splash pad. It’s always very clean, even the bathrooms are clean considering it’s a park, and the grounds are well kept.
There is a large playground, part of which is for smaller children and part geared towards bigger kids. There is a small dog park, several pavilions available to rent, and volleyball, softball, and soccer fields. There is a walking trail around the park, and a nature trail through a wooded area. The trails are not long, but nice for a leisurely stroll. There are many grassy areas to lay a blanket for a picnic or relaxation.
The splash pad is open year round, depending on weather. Except during the summer months, when school is out, there are small numbers of people at the splash pad on any given weekday and it’s free (when admission is charged, it’s only $ 1 per person-​check website for full details). I’ve found summer and weekends to be crowded, but still a lot of fun.
Orlando has a lot of nice parks and this is definitely one of the best.

Beautiful grounds!!+ My 3 dogs and I enjoyed the respite from the busy roads and restaurants while walking the trails. There is a great dog park but we chose not to use it. The waterfront views were pleasant, as were the shaded areas. Nice visit.

I love the splash pad here, very kid friendly and lots of fun. They have places to reserve for parties and stuff. We plan on having our son’s next birthday here at the splash pad

Nice play area with super clean bathrooms and a beautiful lake view. Splash pad closed today and we would have liked to try it. Rubber type flooring on play area which is good, plus lots of climbing for our two active boys.

I recently went to this park with Central Florida French Bulldog Meetup Group.
I never knew this park was tucked back off of Apopka Vineland Road.
It’s very nice. The dog park area is great. They have the double gated entrance and two sides for the dogs, small and large. The day we went our dogs wanted to go on the big dog side. It’s a much larger space. They have lots of room for the dogs to run. There are a few trees, holes and dirt. I liked that they had a wet station. They actually had a kiddie pool for the doggies to play in which is nice during the summer because it can get hot here in Florida. We went early, 9 am but the Frenchies still got over heated. So glad for the hose and pool.
When we were done we walked around the park. The Splash Pad area is way cool! It opens at 10 am and it’s only $ 1 for your kiddie to play there. I think they should make one for dogs! How cool would that be?
They have everything from sports to grills and large open spaces to lay out in the sun. I am surprised that they don’t have lake access though. This park is located on Big Sand Lake. But maybe they couldn’t have lake access in order to build. Not sure.
The LongHorn Steakhouse Loop is a .6 miles of trail meandering through 10 acres of upland habitat.
They are open 7 days a week. 8 am until 8 pm (summer hours) 6 (winter hours)

Love the dog park since there are separate areas for large and small canines. They have ample room that is well maintained, have plastic pools for them to cool off in, and plenty of cool water from the hose. A nice table to sit and chat. Good parking area, along with a play ground, basketball courts, soccer field and water fountain.

We brought our 9 month-​old son to the water park here and he loved it. Great splash ares for kids my son’s age to 12+
Oh, who am I kidding? I’m glad my son was still crawling becasue that gave me an excuse to pick him up and and go do all the watery fun stuff. I left completely soaked and as happy as he!

Very nice dog park with plenty of patrons when we went. The area is nicely fenced in with a water fountain for both small and big dog areas. There are benches with umbrellas for dog owners to sit and watch if they don’t want to be out in the sun.
Additionally, there are basketball courts, pavilions, and a water park for other patrons. Definitely a good place to spend a nice day at.

I love going to the dog park here! There is a huge space for big dogs and it seems to be well kept. The only thing that irks me is that people fill the play pool with water for their dogs so my pup often comes home a muddy smelly mess. I can understand some owners want their dog to have some pool time too bad it just wasn’t in it’s own gated section. It’s kind of hard to find so if you park go to the very back right!

A little off the beaten path, but my dog and I love this park. It’s very clean.
The dog park is sectioned off into 2 sections– under 30 pounds and over 30 pounds. The little dog section is just the right size for my old beagle. There’s always a nice-​sized crowd after 5pm. Everyone is friendly, and they’re all diligent about picking up after their dogs.

Great park for toddlers; good dog park but not the best in town.
Great park overall specially in that side of town.
