Zephyr Park & Waterplay

Busy park in Zephyrhills.
Walking trail, water park area, and a playground for the kids.
There is a fitness walk with strength training stations, using your body as resistance.
Lots of trees, some benches, and even a wooden swing.
A walk through manufactured home neighborhood.
Not sure if Zephyrhills has a lot of parks, but this one seems well utilized.

Very nice Park with plenty to do. The ponds attract seagulls and ducks which are fun to feed. They also have several small playgrounds for kids, as well as adult work out equipment dispersed around the walkways. Nice place to walk or jog. Enough grass area to throw a football with friends. It was clean for the most part. Would have been 5 stars of things were a little bit updated.

I’m not sure why there isn’t a separate listing for the park, but this review is for both the park and the waterplay area. The waterplay area is for mostly younger children, as it’s fairly small with not a lot for older kids to do. It’s a splashpad, with plenty of different spigots and fountains for your child to play in. There are also lots of benches in the shade for the adults to sit on. Beware of creepers: we had several really shady characters hanging around watching the kids play in the water. Someone called the cops on one occasion. But alas, this IS Zephyrhills.
The park itself is beautiful. Designed with two playgrounds, several pavillions, and a large lake in the center, it can accommodate a lot of people without feeling crowded. Parking is a breeze, and the sidewalk around the lake provides a relaxing place to walk or ride your bike in peace. I do wish more of the sidewalk was covered by the beautiful live oaks, but they are mostly on the front side of the park. There are various exercise equipment stations along the path, but many are in disrepair.
The kids love coming here to feed the ducks. Make sure to bring your stale bread! I’ve even seen people feeding peanuts to the squirrels. Lots of wildlife to watch and a great place to sit back and relax.

Great place to bring your children. It’s free and plenty of open space.
