Effective November 22, 2010, there is a $2.00 charge to park at this facility.  To pay the $2.00 fee at the park, there will be a fee collection pay station located in the park (follow directional signs) with an envelope giving instructions to place your money in the envelope and drop it into the pay station and hang the perforated part on your rear view mirror.  Please have exact change as there will not be any staff available to make change for you.

If you prefer, you can save money and purchase an Annual Park Pass for $60.00 and is valid for a full 12 months of use.  The pass is good through the last day of the month, one year from the date of purchase.  This pass can be used at all eleven county parks that require this new user fee.  You can purchase the pass at our Parks and Recreation Administration Office located at 4111 Land O' Lakes Blvd., Suite 202, Land O' Lakes, 34639 or you can download an Annual Pass Application from our website and mail it to our office to receive your annual pass via mail.  If you have any questions, please contact our office at (813) 929-2760.

We thank you for supporting our Parks and Recreation Department!

This neighborhood park consists of 6.65 acres of property with a huge lake.  There is small boat ramp that can be used to launch canoes and kayaks as well as small powered engine boats.  There are two shelters and plenty of picnic tables and grills throughout the park.  It is in the middle of the Moon Lake neighborhood yet it is so peaceful and soothing to sit out and watch the wild birds and ducks at the lake with the reflection of the sun glistening off the middle of the lake.  We hope you enjoy your visit to this park.

Bring the family down for a cozy picnic or host a special birthday party outdoors.  There is a large playground area for the children to play that includes a merry-go-round, slides, swings, spring toys and a large climber with two slides. 

Shelters:  No reservations are necessary for the shelters.  They are available on a first-come first-served basis. 

Lake Access:  There is a beach area designated for swimming, however, there are no lifeguards on duty and you must swim at your own risk.   Fishing access is allowed at the lake where posted.  You can launch your canoe or kayak from the boat ramp area or to the right of the beach area.  Please obey all safety signs posted at the park.  For the convenience of all boaters, there are 10 paved boat trailer parking spaces to park your boat trailers.

Outdoor Activities:  There is a multi-purpose court (30'x40') and a basketball hoop for the public to use.  We have a bicycle rack if you care to ride your bicycle to the park.  There is also a water fountain and a single-head shower, payphone and benches so you can sit back and relax.
