Tree Tops Park

First time at this park a few days ago. Went during the week for a play date, super clean and quiet. Def. recommend for anyone with little ones!

Seriously, seriously beautiful. Was so relaxing to take the dog for a walk here yesterday afternoon. Loved seeing all the horses, beautiful tree coverings, fresh fruit (oranges! berries!) as we walked along the nature paths. A great fun way to get out of the city and enjoy nature. Can’t wait to go back. :)

Nice trails. Park with toddler area needs to be redone. Zip ties on some of the swings and twist slide. Twist slide unstable, boarded off on top, rocks back and forth. No cover over most of playground and infant swings that get very hot in the sun. Cover over big kid swings.

Very nice place if you want relax, you can go there. Also for children’s there are two parks and is very nice for them.
My baby was very happy.

Tree Tops Park is seriously beautiful. It is one of the only parks in the area that truly lives up to its name. There’s tons of old growth trees and there’s quite a lot of shade which makes the park unique for South Florida, since most parks have been completely cleared and don’t really provide a lot of shade.
TTP hosts a hiking trail, a viewing platform, and open fields. We saw a nice lake and a little elevated walkway near it, truly lovely. There are also pavilions with picnic tables and a playground nestled under some shady trees, so there’s something for everybody. As previously mentioned, I really like the fact that the picnic tables and pavilions aren’t just out in a big open field so you actually have some respite from the South Florida heat. I was here in November, so with all the shade it was really quite pleasant and you could feel a serious temperature difference between the shady areas in the open fields.
I was here for a race, so I didn’t have time to check out the nature trails and the observation tower. However, I will definitely be back to check out the nature trail as this park is included and the Florida birding trail!

It’s a beautiful park. Great park to bring your horses. The trails are beautiful with or without the horses. There’s beautiful views. It’s a lot for dogs if they are not used to walking so much so be cautious. Overall a great experience.

The park is nice but it does get a bit swamp like during the summers. We went early this month (Sept) and I gotta say, the one draw back is the lack of shaded areas. Yes there are gazebos and trees, but you have to really walk to these areas, and they are (at least during our time) loaded with spiders. If that stuff doesn’t really bother you, then it’s a nice park with lush landscapes and horse paths.

It’s a great place for photo shoots

What a beautiful park! You may have to pinch yourself to make sure you’re still in Florida it feels out of this world majestic.
Free weekdays, and 1.50 $ per person on weekends.
Driving in you can see paddleboats for rent on your right, passing by a lake.
There’s a playground for kids with astro turf.
There are different covered pavilions with picnic tables, bbq, sound system for rent, ½ price on a weekday.
There are horses for rent in the weekends offering trail rides.
Really old oak trees with ferns, moss and everything growing on it. They say there may have 400 species living on an Oak tree.
A walking and biking trail goes through the woods and comes to a marsh with covered benches and there’s a viewing tower on the trail that kids love to climb.
There are plenty of turtles (also saw a Giant snapping one), Dragon flies, Lily pads, some birds and is very calming.
Come check it out, you just might be back

Love this park! You can bring your horse. Great for birthday parties. Lots of trees very relaxing for me.

Love the park but disappointed that there is no canoes or anything. On their website it states they have them. :/

Out of the few parks I went to in Miami by far this one was one of my favorites. One of the reason being is because it’s not AS crowded as the the other parks I have been to lately. It has a nice variety of actives you can do. There is a nature walk trail and a horse trail to go horse back riding! I saw 3 beautiful horses! What I like about the nature trail and the park it’s self are the beautiful trails that avoid the sun during the unbearable heat. There are pavilions and areas to play volleyball. Very nice quiet and calm park for family time, cook out/​picnic, walking, activities and ect.

I love this park. Beware of alligators and don’t feed the animals or throw food in the water or put your limbs in the water. You don’t want the gators to run after you or bite your hand. If you see a gator run away fast in a straight line, they probably just want you off their turf. There are lynks, bobcats, and foxes. But don’t be afraid, I’ve never seen any of these, not even the gators. So much to discover. Don’t go on the treks alone and beware of the snake pits, there are some by the cactus. The playgrounds are clean and so are the bathrooms. People always picnic in the clearings.

It’s ok. I really enjoy the horse rides, that I really love, but my rating is based on the overall park. It’s not the worst or the best. Would I return… yes the price for the horse rides is great compared to other places.

This park is adorable but can be super confusing on foot-​let me explain.
If you are coming here to meet someone for a party in a pavilion and know exactly where to go, no big deal. You drive in, park the car and mainly stay in one spot. However-​if you’re a runner or walking with the dog like me and basically doing a 2 mile loop, it’s VERY easy to get lost. Thankfully I had put my Map My Run app on and was able to trace back to the origin dot to find where the car was-​otherwise I don’t think I would have been able to find the car before dark.
There are a ton of side «attractions» here. There is a butterfly garden here supposedly but it has been locked off both times I’ve been here (both saturdays). There is a nature trail that you can go on horseback and on foot, and there is a pier near a marsh (also a dead end-​easy to get lost!!). There are several playgrounds-don’t use this as a parking landmark since there is more than one.
Overall, the park is very clean, has little stations where you can donate bags for doggie bags (which is nice) and has real bathrooms, not port a potties, and even has vending machines near the bathrooms which is a neat change. However, like I said, it’s so easy to get lost that I feel like all they need is a few more signs to make it clearer on foot so you don’t get lost in the woods before dark :(

What a great park! It is hard to believe that this park may not have existed, if not for the county acquiring the land. Initially, it was going to be an apartment building. Tree Tops Park contains 243.4 acres, with 23 acres of marsh. There is a boardwalk, nature trails, and horse trails. There are more than seven miles available for horse riding, a popular activity in Davie, which is known as horse country. They also offer pony rides for kids, or for beginners. You may think that you are losing your mind, hearing a horse whinnying while on the nature trails, but there are actually several horses on the property. People bring their trailers and horses, and camp out in the park, while making a bonfire and cooking food, as I discovered.
One of the best things about the park was the weaving boardwalk. It was very beautiful, and I saw alligators, swamp lilies, and a lovely sunset reflected on the water. Canoe rentals are available, and I can imagine it’d be beautiful to canoe along the marsh and see everything up close. I saw Alligator Flag for the first time, which was just beautiful. The wooden Tree Tops Tower, prior to arriving to the boardwalk, was a fun climb. The place was relatively quiet, and once you get on the trails, it is complete silence. Very nice.
Apart from all these things are the pavilions, and playgrounds for kids. Whether you’re an adult or a child, there is something for everyone here. I am kind of jealous, because there are no nature preserves or marshes where I live. If I had a park like this near my home, I’d go at least once a week to clear my mind, spot the wildlife and shoot pictures.

You’re invited!
Place: Tree Tops Park
At the: Live Oak Pavillion
Bring your walking shoes and party hats! It’s been a while since I’ve been to Tree Tops. When I was little I took some horseback riding lessons here. This weekend I went for a birthday party.
Call in advance to reserve a Pavillion. There may be quite a few of them, but they do get booked up. The day I went they were all taken. So just to be sure there is one available, call or go online ahead of time. There are many other picnic areas available as well for last minute family picnics as well.
Each Pavillion has a grill and hose extension. Just make sure you pay the security deposit in advance. If you don’t one of the park rangers will come and remind you.
The park is beautifully well maintained. Open walkways, equestrian trails, and tot lots all over. No garbage anywhere on the grounds and garbage cans everywhere. The bathrooms are very clean as well.
You can bbq even bring in a petting zoo! Whatever you can think of! It was a great day at the park!

A nearby park that offers relative seclusion from life. Take the short nature trail and head to the marsh. You’re not too far from the road, but it’s pretty quiet out there. It must be a popular marsh to come feed turtles and fish because if you sit underneath the awning for about 5 to 10 minutes, you’ll soon see many turtles and fish move towards you. I’ve seen soft shell turtles, red-​eared sliders, map turtles, catfish, and more.

Me and my pug Bruce Willis love it here. This park is great for pets and kids and nature lovers there are playgrounds and there are big open fields for active dogs to run and trails to walk or ride your bike

There really is a lot to do at this park.
They have a ton of walking paths through the trees. The scenery is great, though I’d recommend bringing some big spray. There’s a little marshy area you can walk out over that was cool. The observation tower was closed when we went there. I’m not sure if that’s permanent but if it’s not it looks pretty neat.
They have a couple different playgrounds, a garden and tons of fields.
It’s free in weekdays, a great place to spend an afternoon.
