But just after one visit we realized what an amazing park this is and often drive from two cities away just to visit. This park is a lovely escape to nature in South Florida. Boosting, many walking paths, bike paths, a dog park, a splash pad, frisbee, golf pitch, fishing areas, boating lake and many other sports areas. Overall, the paths pavement are generally well maintained, however, you do get a little bit of cracking as you do with most paved areas in Florida due to the heat- nothing too extreme, it was still easy to push a stroller. The bathrooms are always clean, yet admittedly, they are quite dated and dark on the inside, even though hygienically they are up to standards . Perhaps adding some better lighting on the inside could help make it feel a little nicer. Today while walking around the park, we visited many of the small playgrounds and our young child enjoyed getting out to play .

I found out online that in 2017 they completed a 2.7 million dollar renovation of Bradley Park. This is one of my favorite kind of parks. It runs at the base of a bridge giving you a fantastic view of the waterway. After visiting the park all I can say is wow! It combines two things I am passionate about, art and history. The 4.4 acre park was the former home of Colonel Bradley as well as the location of his beach club. The Gilded Age buildings were destroyed as were many others during the 1970's. It was why the Preservation Foundation was created, to preserve the historic architecture of the Palm Beaches. All that remains is the Artemis fountain featuring cherubs and the four faces of father time and the historic tea house. Park improvements that were made during refurbishment project include a quarter mile long shell walkway, the restoration of the tea house, and a terrace for the Artemis fountain. Inside the tea house are five informative panels that give the history of Palm Beach. The history begins with the prehistoric legacy of the Native Americans. It then moves to the Palm Beach pioneers, Henry Morrison Flagler, Colonel Bradley, and ends with the Bradley Park Beautification project. The park pathway continues to Lake Trail that was extended to run along the sea wall. Beautiful plants and trees make up the rest of the park. This park had the nicest public bathroom I have ever seen. It was designed to match the tea house. I love how the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach chose to honor their historical legacy in this park. It is beautiful like all of the parks and gardens they manage. It was worth taking the time to take in the beauty of the park while learning about the history in the area.

While looking for place to get a few steps in I stumbled across Mary Brandon Park. It is a small…read moreneighborhood park tucked near the northeast corner of the West Palm Beach Golf Course, just east of Forest Hill High School and the West Palm Beach Country Club. It's named after Mary Brandon, a local politician who served on the city's Parks and Recreation Commission in the 1960s. Established in 1999, this park holds the distinction of being the first dog park in the City of West Palm Beach. It features two separate fenced areas--one for small dogs (25 pounds and under) and another for larger dogs. Amenities include dog-friendly water fountains, play tunnels, as well as plenty of chairs, benches, and tables for owners to relax. In July 2019, the city unveiled a brand-new playground, replacing older equipment with updated, shade-covered slides and climbing structures. In addition to the dog park and playground, the park also offers picnic pavilions, a baseball field, restrooms, and a large open green space that's perfect for running around or getting some exercise. I really appreciate how the city created a space that caters to both kids and dogs. It's a welcoming, versatile park that serves the neighborhood well--perfect for a casual afternoon outdoors. I'd definitely come back, especially if I brought my dog or just wanted a quiet place to unwind outside for a while.

There is a nice playground area with a structure, benches, a softball field, a basketball court, a walking path, and open grass to run around in. For the pet owner, there are two dog "parks"/dog run areas for differing size dogs that are fenced in. When we stopped by, there was only one other car parked in the lot. It was lovely weather so I was surprised that more people were not taking advantage of the first sunny day in a while. There are some large old trees providing shade, too. We'd be here often if we lived in the neighborhood.

The last time I was here the playground was closed after being shut down July 2022 for construction activity related to the Town Center Phase 2 project. It resumed regular operating hours in May of 2023. When I visited the recent Lakeside Market I was delighted to find it filled with happy children playing on the unique and inclusive equipment. Scott's Place Barrier-Free Playground was built in 2010 with a donation made by Wellington residents Del and Barbara Williamson in honor of their son Scott Scott had cerebral palsy and sadly passed away at age of six. The playground is barrier free meaning it was designed to meet the needs of both able-bodied and disabled children. There aren't many playgrounds created to be barrier free so this is a very special play space for all of the children of Wellington to enjoy. As part of this project, Wellington held a community build weekend event where more than 300 volunteers assembled all of Scott's Place playground equipment. This fenced in playground is themed to Wellington's horse culture with a large horse statue, play wagon, and a horse spring rider. There are the traditional climbing equipment and swings that you expect to find at any playground but also special equipment like sensory items, a communication board where non verbal children can point at pictures to let people know their needs, and wheelchair ramps. There is also a reading corner, covered pavilion, benches, and restrooms. Parents can appreciate the safety aspects of this play space while the kids can enjoy creative play that encourages imagination and physical movement. Kudos to Wellington for creating this safe, clean, and inclusive environment for children to play and explore.

This is especially helpful for children with communication challenges, promoting inclusion and self-expression. Love that! The park is well-designed with accessible pathways, sensory play areas, and safe equipment suitable for various ages. My kids love it here. We periodically come after school so they can get some of the energy out before going home. Those who know, know! There are also shaded spots for parents to relax and watch their kids play. Overall, Scott's Place is a welcoming, thoughtful space that encourages social interaction and supports children's emotional well-being through play.

The playground is large and has a lot of climbing equipment, slides, and swings. This area of the park also has a covered pavilion with a picnic tables and a portable restroom. A few days ago a woman and her two daughters were shocked by the metal railing leading to the restroom. The city determined it was due to a leaky air conditioning unit on top of the restroom and they have fixed the issue. i would still caution against touching the railing just to be on the safe side. In the immediate area outside the playground there is even more for families to enjoy like a memorial meditation garden and aquatics center with pool, splash zone, and water slide. A brand new 30 million dollar community center is being built with a refurbished gym, wellness studio, cultural art space, art studios, rooms for STEM programs, new restrooms, and more. With the addition of the new community center this corner of Palm Beach Gardens is going to be an impressive gathering place for the community.
