They have plenty of places for you to take a break from skating and spectate from the side lines. it's a really great value!! For a few bucks you can skate until10 pm. They have a Summer camp for kids 14 and under.

Independence Park was very quiet when my grandson and I visited. There was very little shade and…read morethe play equipment seemed limited. There is an adult workout station with "how to' instructions next to the kids portion of the park. It looked like you could get in a good workout while supervising your children on the playground. There is also a dog park and a skateboarding area. The dog seemed very popular with several owners coming and going during our visit. The skateboarding area looked like it had potential

My son also plays t-ball on the fields here and loves it! Don't miss the skate part on the opposite side of the building from the playground. There is a little free library at the entrance! It would be nice if the outside doors into the bathrooms, closer to the splash pad, weren't always locked. It sucks to walk all the way around and through the building with wet kids. Only bad experiences we've had have been a couple times when teachers bring their daycare kids to the playground and they overrun it. Have had issues with older kids cussing and speaking inappropriately -the caregivers pay very little attention to them. They seem to come out at the end of the day while waiting for pickup.

Well, at least it's by the water and I guess where they had land! Because it's Sphon Ranch-designed, we're talking about a generous, $800,000 outdoor skateboarding facility here and what's more, unlike the Sphon Ranch park in Gainesville, this one has night lighting and thus is open to around ten at night. The variety and quality of skate terrain is impressive, there's a decent-sized bowl, handrails, stairs--good stuff all around. The local kids are pretty impressive too, really--you'll meet some skaters here who really rip. Check out TJ Gaskill's video on YouTube to see what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FnE8w7jEPk To me, this is a great park but what really makes it is the night lighting and fact you can skate it after dark: it really extends the hours, especially in the summer.

The park is always…read moresuper clean and well maintained, and it's one of the better parks around Orlando for both families and adults. There's a huge playground, splash pad, walking paths, sports courts, skate park, dog park, and plenty of open space to just relax. What I like most is that it never feels overly crowded or chaotic even when there are a lot of people there. It has a really laid back atmosphere and there's something for everyone whether you're bringing kids, skating, walking your dog, or just trying to get outside for a bit. The shaded areas and lake views make it even better, especially during sunset. Definitely one of the best public parks in Orlando and a spot I'll keep coming back to
