Reiter Park is located next to the fire department in Longwood, Florida. It is a n extremely pleasant park that is well-maintained and attractive. There is room for events here and the city has utilized it for such events. Our communities need parks as a place to gather and enjoy the simple pleasures of just being outside on a beautiful day. Reiter Park is a great park and I definitely recommend here. read more

This is a nice relaxing spot to come to for events or just for some outdoorsy time. I recently came for there food truck Carribean kick off. I didnt get to stay long enough to hear all the good Jams they had playing but stood for some and it was cool and vibey. The food was on point too. Hope to see many more things playing out here in the future because it's a nice little local park. read more

Reiter Park, hosts a lot of great events and activities in the Longwood area. We stop here several times during the year to meet up with friends and have a blast. We have attended the Independence Day Celebration, the Pirate Seafood Festival, the Food Truck Battle, the Memorial Day Celebration, the Concert in the Park, and several other events I can't remember at the moment; regardless, they are all a blast. My most recent visit was for their Independence Day Celebration on 6/29/24. We arrived around 7:30 pm and were only a few minutes walk from the park, fireworks started around 9:00pm. This year, the City hired SWITCH, one of our favorite local bands to perform several sets for guests while we enjoyed the festivities. Switch always brings their A-game and gets the crowd dancing. The park has a large grassy area that is on a slight slope, so you can see the stage from pretty much anywhere. 10x10 pop up tents, coolers, and chairs are permitted. There are plenty food trucks available if you're hankering for something good. You can also purchase beer and mixed drinks if you're feeling frisky. There are plenty of vendors selling jewelry, artwork, crafts, knick knacks and other odds and ends that keep you occupied while the band is on break. The city does a great job withthis event and there is no expense spared especially on the Police, they have a heavy presence but not in a bad way. On a celebration like Independence Day you just need to CYA. The fire works were amazing just as in years previous. If you ever have an opportunity to go I highly recommended coming for Independence Day since they usually schedule it the weekend or several days before July 4th. read more

My first time at this park was pretty fun! I came out for an event to support autism awareness and check out the farmers market. It was so nice to see everyone come out and support a cause. There were Disney princesses I a small parade, and cool cars designed after marvel and DC characters! The park is a pretty nice size and has a covered pavilion area which would be great for events during the summer time! I'll be sure to check this park out more since it's not a far drive from me! read more

Great park for the kids to play, you can reserve the pavilions thru the city for party's Well kept and very clean even the bathrooms are always well maintained. If you like walking for exercise or playing basketball this is the place, a full basketball court and tennis court plus a trail that goes around the park to get your exercise for the day. This is an awesome addition to the city of Longwood and the hospital is right next to the park. read more

Great little playground! Happened upon this park by chance, during a farmer's market. We all had a blast! There is lots of space to run around and a hill next to the playground that was a hit! I will say there was no swings, but the covered picnic tables was a plus! read more

Beautiful spacious park. Clean playground with shaded picnic tables. This is located right next to the Longwood Fire Station. There is a basketball court, small walking trail around the park, educational signs you can read about wildlife and exercise stations for your use! My family visited today and it wasn't busy at all (Friday... but first day of Seminole County's spring break). In the back part of the park, there is a large beautiful tree- a great background for photos! There are beautiful flowers here that have been planted where bees and butterflies flourish. Come visit and spend a little time here! read more

This new park is absolutely gorgeous and a wonderful place to visit. They have many different events that you should check out on Facebook. They do weekend concerts at the bandshell and recently I attend the pirate seafood festival. If you want to check it out on a regular day, you can take the kids to play on the splash pad or playground. There's also a hill there that they love to run on and roll down. There are no dogs allowed though, just FYI. read more

Well this is a first for me. Still trying to figure out why this park has no swings, or slide. I've never seen that before in my life I guess it's a Florida thing. read more

The basketball courts at Reiter park are amazing, mostly due to it being open always even into the night. The court has a light that can always be turned on for when you want to play late. But a major problem is when it rains or water gets on the court it very often pools up and stays for a long while, which can be fairly annoying when trying to play basketball. The surrounding park area has a great atmosphere. read more

The splash pad is closed on Monday's Love the area but that was a total mood buster for my kid.

Longwood has done a really good job on this park. It just opened at the end of 2018 and they've already had several events there. The park itself is beautiful with areas to walk, areas for kids to play, a splash pad, a couple of covered pavilions for seating and gatherings, and a stage where concerts and movies are held. There have already been food truck days, a Christmas festival that we went to in December, and the Pirate Seafood Festival that we went to yesterday. They have movies in the park, I believe once a month. And the greatest part is that so far everything has been free to attend. It looks like they're still doing a little more work, the tennis and basketball courts have been demolished and I'm not sure yet what will take their place. There is a small parking lot for the actual park but when they hold events there is free parking at the hospital directly across the street (plenty of spaces) and in a few other locations close by. The police station and the fire station are literally right next to the park and I love that they're super close in case of any emergency. There are no dogs allowed in this particular park. Longwood is really making some great strides in updating the neighborhood and making it a great place for family and friends to gather. read more

Very cute! I love how they redid the park. Cut things to work out and nice place to walk

My family and I would love to enjoy this park more especially with our new baby. The problem is how absolutely against dogs they are. We live nearby and would love to walk/run/bike to the park to play or go to events but with all the big bold signs against dogs it makes it an unattractive place to go. We work hard all week and our dog is in the crate all day that on a Thursday night for food trucks it would be nice to go as a whole family and burn some energy for our dog on the way. Friday night movie sounds great but how can we go after a long day and not bring our dog to an outdoor venue? Farmers markets, Christmas tree lighting, etc... I was super excited about this park opening back up after we moved til we realized how unfriendly it is. I get a lot of people are not dog people but other parks and cities have figured it out to be together and still make the environment stay nice. Our family truly wishes we could enjoy this place more. read more

It is a wonderful park. Great playground (not enough shade, thou effort was put forth. Caution of leg scorching). I'm not sure if this is a new rule implemented... (But it was NO WHERE to be found on their website) NO DOGS! read more
