Plantation Heritage Park is a blessing in my neighborhood. Whenever I have a lot on my mind, I can just come here and walk, jog, or work out to clear my head. Monday through Friday, unless it's a holiday the entrance is free and on the weekends the park charges $2-3 per vehicle for entrance. You can find plenty of parking spaces in different areas of park each marked by a different pavilions. There is a lake in the middle of the park with fountain and it's always worth few minutes of your time to stand and admire it. Breathe in all the problems in your life and let it out with positivity. Like myself today, just take a minute to tell yourself that everything will be okay and this too, will pass and sooner rather than later, it will all be for the better. There are baby owls, ducks, iguanas, and other wild life to be found at this park. Please keep them safe and keep your dogs safe away from them too! If you ever visit this park, please let me know what you thought of it! read more

I come for the disc golf but I do appreciate all this park has to offer. I was new to this part of town when a friend recommended we play the course inside the Plantation Heritage park. I got there as they opened, 8am on the weekends. The course starts on the far end of the park so you get to take in the park on the way there. Ducks and geese love this place. They are all over the place. The lake that takes up the middle of the park is postcard perfect. You can't really blame the birds for liking it. When we play the course it gives you a chance to see alot of the park. The course covers almost everything east to west. One of the really neat things is the burrowing owl really likes this park. They are located at at least 4 spots I have been by. They are unique not just for nesting underground, but that they have alot of attitude. There is one couple of birds that are the 16th tee box who hiss at you while you play. Including the bird encounters, Its a great park, whether disc golfing, or bird spotting. read more

Love this park. Beautiful and windy. Great place to take a quiet walk in plantation. Lots of sun, only thing would be better if there was more trees that provided shade on the walking paths. read more

Very lovely park workers are pretty chill. I live in the neighborhood that this park is in and I'm always riding my bike there. It's beautiful and definitely recommended for parties or taking a nice stroll or bike ride. read more

Plantation Heritage Park - Parks Near Me - Plantation, Florida

Surprisingly unknown large county park near the waterways of Plantation Isles. Perfect place to celebrate by renting a pavilion or throw a tent or blanket down to do your own thing. A handful of good size festivals are held here and different times of the year they do a food truck village for local residents to mingle. Another lesser known fact is the park serves as a sanctuary for a large population of the endangered burrowing owl. If you grew up in this county, you're very familiar with the tiny, judgmental species of owl. Newly built exercise pavilion and remodeled playgrounds. Last but not least, this park houses a full 18-hole disc golf course. If you time it right, you have free roam to play or compete. read more

Super bad experience . read more

Heritage park is a gem nestled in the middle of Plantation.. it's a large park with pavilions that are spread out as well as playground for children. The entry fee is $3. There is a large walking path that is over 3 miles around the property. The park attendants were accessible, making rounds often and were accommodating to our needs. The park was clean and the garbage cans were right at the pavilion and immediately emptied when we were on our way out by the park. The parking was a bit limited but we made do. It was an enjoyable day for a celebration. read more

What better Yelpy way to celebrate Earth Day than reviewing my latest park discovery? Oh, probably adding a picnic with food from a local vegan/vegetarian biz! Honestly, discovering local parks is one of my favorite Broward things to do. There are the bigger Regional parks with most of them having entrance fees on the weekends and then there are smaller parks in the nooks and crannies of our community! Plantation Heritage Park lands somewhere in the middle. There is no entrance fee both at any time. They have pavilions for celebrations or a nature trail (Anne Kolb) so you can celebrate the great outdoors in many ways. The park is laid out with a one way road rounding the whole park. There is a lot of signage to help you know where each pavilion is and parking along the way. I decided to come here to celebrate both Earth day and National Picnic Day dining with my laptop in a pavilion. Working in parks might just be my new favorite thing (thank you Hot Spot!) I'm excited to come back and check out the nature trail next time I stop by. Happy Earth Day! read more

10-23-21 Afternoon Plant Affair First time going to this park for a plant show that my friend read about. Upon entering you pay admission to enter the park so take that into consideration when going to a show here. Several small vendors with plants and maybe just one selling water. So if you go to an event here plan accordingly as the heat of South Florida will dehydrate you quickly. Bought several plants and herbs. Lucky that it is walkable park as I made several trips back to the car with my purchases. There was another plant show held here today 9-10-22 but I passed as I just hit my local nursery yesterday so all good now for plants. Great local park if you live in the area so you can go to a nice green space in town. read more

Heritage Park is a large park in East Plantation. I had never been, but yesterday, I stopped in to explore. I was surprised how large it was and how many pavilions it had. There were people exercising with their dogs and walking, as well as just chilling around the lake, which was quite beautiful. I also noted the park has an outdoor work out area with equipment similar to the one at Treetops. This park would be a good place to ride a bike, or have a picnic or just read a book. Bathrooms were clean as well. Not a ton of shade- similar to CB Smith in that sense but lots of pavilions to sit in to get some shade during the week when they aren't rented. read more

Plantation Heritage Park is 88.5 acres that was once an agricultural experimentation station. You can still see the rare fruit trees from Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean in the tropical fruit grove. There is also duck ponds and lakes. My favorite part of the park was watching all of the remote control sailboats on the lake. I also met two geese who were not shy. Apparently they are used to being pampered because the minute I stopped to take a picture they came running up to me. The expected to be fed for their modeling fee. Also in the park is the Anne Kolb Memorial Trail named after former Broward County Commissioner and environmental champion, Anne Kolb, The trail has a tropical hardwood hammock, pine flatwoods, and a coastal strand forest. I was looking forward to hiking the trail but unfortunately it was closed. Other park amenities include a 1.25 mile fitness trail, 18 hole disc golf course, fishing pier, gazebo, marina with paddle boat rental, picnic pavilions, 2 playgrounds, and the fountain room that can be rented for events and meetings. There is so much recreation in this park. The normal weekend entrance is $1.50 but the fee is currently waived due to the closure of some of the amenities. There is still plenty to enjoy here though. read more

This was a convenient and quiet park near multiple restaurants so I was able to stop for a quick relaxing lunch break. It has an exercising station with tons of fixed exercise equipment, it has shelters you can rent for special occasions, they have it has a playground area, and golf course. There are also a special designated areas where you are not allowed to go that are taped off to protect the owl population, a quick trail that you can walk around for exercise, lmultiple benches and picnic areas. There are also birdhouses perch up high and a beautiful lake with a water feature. And let's not forget plenty of trees to keep shaded from the hot Florida sun. It was a nice visit. read more

Had my sons 1st birthday party here and shelter 6 was a total hit. It was right in front of a play ground which was perfect because I Did not have a bouncy house but ALL the kids of ALL ages were entertained with the park. They do have strict rules and one of them Was a bummer. I wanted to have a music teacher come out but their rules are no bands. So she couldn't sing nor use a guitar. So I couldn't do that. But other than that the place was great. Clean and beautiful park. You do have to pay $1.50 pp. to get in They also offer military discount. read more

We went to a picnic held at Plantation Heritage Park. Clyde and I stopped at the entrance to pay the entrance fee. They charge on weekends and holidays. We didn't know which shelter our group was at. Since we were meeting a large group I thought the attendant at the entrance might know where our group was. Not any help there. I was told they didn't know and we would have to look for them. Didn't they have to reserve their shelter in advance? We drove around the picnic area until we spotted a large group of people. We pulled over and recognized a few people we knew. Parking was not a problem. The covered shelter had wood benches and wood picnic tables. A few people had brought their own chairs. In the back hot dogs and hamburgers were being barbecued on the grill. They smelled so good. One of the picnic tables was set up with salads, side dishes, desserts, and much more. The picnic area was very nice. Grounds appeared to be clean and well maintained. There were several trails for walking and biking. I didn't get to see everything, but I'm told that there's a lake, a gazebo, rare tropical fruit trees, and a playground. A big plus is that this park is pet friendly. read more

First time I discovered this park was during the food truck event. It's a neighborhood park with a lake, fitness trail (1.25 miles), and two playgrounds. It is huge enough for a few dozen food trucks. There's plenty of parking onsite. It sits on 88.5 acres and has a tropical fruit grove; what does that mean? It has tropical fruit trees from all over the world but you can't pick them. There's disc golf and picnic shelters for throwing a party. There's also a fountain room that you could rent for special events; it's an air conditioned building that fits 100 people. This is a great spot to throw a birthday party outside and a wedding in the fountain room. The park is meticulously maintained by Broward County. It's really a great spot to bring the family and get some outdoor time with them. It's also spacious and has lots of grass to work on your fitness. There are alligators and other wildlife so be aware of that. It's definitely one of my favorite parks in the Broward area. read more

This was our first time attending this food truck round up. I've seen it advertised in the past but finally got the opportunity to visit. It had about 8 trucks. My main reason was for HipPops. We always look to see where they are going to pop up. Of course it didn't disappoint. I wish there were more trucks to choose from. We got the corn on the cob and lobster roll. Both very tasty. Will hope to visit this park again on a different occasion to check out other amenities. read more

Heritage Park is a great park for birthday parties, community picnics, family reunions, etc. It has lots of nice pavilions with tables and grills (rental fee on weekends), large open fields for games, conveniently placed restroom facilities, and 3 or 4 good sized canopy-shaded playgrounds. Paddle boats for the large lake at the center of the park can be rented for a reasonable fee. Some of the pavilions have horseshoe pits, and the kids were having a blast using them for soccer when I was there. The park also has a disc golf course, and tons of people were playing this new-to-me game the day I was there. The park has a nice, looped, paved walking/jogging trail, which is why I last visited. I'd guess it's around 2 miles long. Almost none of the trail is shaded, so know that before you go on a hot, sunny day. Don't bother visiting the Ann Kolb nature trail. It's terribly overgrown and the mosquitos are vicious!!! I was there on a cooler, December day and got 20 bites in 3 minutes. No visit to Heritage Park is complete without a visit to "The Duck Pond." This tiny spot across Peters Road from the rest of the park is a Plantation historical site. I first visited it as a kid more than 40 years ago. The gazebo onsite was the Peters' family outdoor kitchen before Plantation was Plantation, when this founding family family lived on what is now Heritage Park. It's the oldest structure in the city. read more

This park offers a few amenities including paddle boats, playgrounds and frisbee golf. For the kids I enjoy taking them to the bigger playground as this one seems to be the most updated. We enjoyed going to the dock and watching all the turtles swim around. Also like the open grassy areas as the kids love running around. If you want to get your family out of the house I definitely recommend a park as an option. Can't beat price either at only a $1.50 per person over the age of 6. read more

What we got to see of this park was very nice. I wish it hadn't rained all afternoon, so I could have taken a better looks around. While we were working our way towards the pavilion for the baby shower (there are 10 pavilions), we saw lots of greenery, a nice lake with pedal boats, a covered play area, etc. The road runs one way in a loop around the shelters, so it's easy to find where you're going. Parking is pretty adequate, so nobody had to walk too far in the rain. There were BBQ grills at the pavilions, but they were a bit on the small side. All of the shelters looked to be the same size. You can put 40 people in one, if it's raining, but they aren't going to have much room to move around. It would be nice if they had a couple of shelters that were bigger, to provide for a larger group. I'm also used to parks charging a per car fee when you enter, but not a per person fee, which somehow just didn't seem right. Someday I'd like to go back and check out the walking areas, etc. read more

We hit up this park for Tuesday Night's Food Truck Rally...and you can't beat it. The BEST truck in my humble opinion, is Gastrobite. THEY HAVE THE BEST BURGERS!! The guys who work the truck are also super friendly and efficient. I normally get a triple burger with bacon, egg, cheese and some yummy aioli sauce with fries with a garlic aioli and I like to wash it down with a bottle of Cream Soda...and finish off the date with a Salted Caramel Nutella milk shake... mmmmm mmmmmm mmmmmmm. is it Tuesday yet? read more

This place is awesome to come to for events. My class has set up barbecues here two years in a row and both times (weather negated) we have had no issues. My understanding is that you put a credit card deposit down based on the size and number of shelters you want to rent, and as long as they are properly cleaned up after nothing is charged (a security deposit). They are also equipped to play frisbee golf here. A new concept to me but it seems like a cool idea. A lot of people are usually just running, I walk my dog a lot here. It's free to get in on weekdays and $1.50 a head on weekends. I think that's fair. What's coolest is when they host food truck invasion. There are usually between 15-20 each time and they rotate so you can come every week and not have the same stuff. There's usually a movie playing on a giant screen in the center and they sometimes have entertainment like a magician or moon bounce. Totally family friendly. read more

There are TONS of great amenities at this park, including food truck Tuesdays, frisbee golf, paddle boats, playgrounds, shelters, open clean bathrooms and water fountains, and lots of roads for running (which I do most here, a nice 1.5 mile loop around the outside). My only disappointment (1 star down) is the per-PERSON charge on weekends - it generally makes my family avoid running/biking here unless we have time on a weekday. A per VEHICLE charge would save parking space, encourage car-pooling, AND encourage more locals to walk/bike to the park more often. read more

Our family chose this park for disc golf only. We heard about this park from someone at Kendall Indian Hammocks Park. We did not know what to expect, but we had a great time. There are enough tree and water obstacles to keep you on your toes. The tees were a little difficult to find, but that is usually expected with a new course. It was family friendly enough to push a stroller around the course. Being from Michigan, I've never seen so many banana spiders. Do they only come out at night? read more

Such a well-manicured park and terrific peaceful ambience with plenty of amenities. I am always looking for new places to go for walks with my pups and dad, and came across this gem just recently. There is a full disc golf course beautifully laid out as well which adds a new element of fun. I have not been to the food truck Tuesdays yet but heard through the grapevine that it's successful. I have however attended the Broward County Plant Affair which was first class! read more

've driven past here for decades but finally decided to go into the park. It was well manicured and kept. There is a lake, paths, things to do but what I liked best was it was quiet and peaceful. There are places where you can sit and just relax. A good place to bring a book or an MP3 and enjoy your surroundings. read more

Tuesday night Food Truck invasion was a nice surprise. That is why I'm giving it four stars. It's a nice looking park. Fishing is really, really gross. The water is blue because they add some "safe" chemical to the water for algae or something like that. The ducks had blue on their wings. Also, the water has a thick, matted hair-like substance that gets caught on your lure. Gross. Some unattended kids were throwing sticks at the birds. The Frisbee golf is cool but one of the stops is right next to the water on a hill. It interrupts fishing and is a great place to lose your expensive Frisbees. read more
