It's a very lowkey park with less than 10 parking spaces in front. I went about 3x and each time, saw people going for a walk around the pathway or playing basketball on the court. The trees are beautiful, there's 2 covered areas to sit at and 1 bench that's closest to the playground. I enjoyed my brief 30 minutes here each time I stopped by, it was never too crowded and I always found parking. Definitely a good spot to go to if you're nearby and want to walk your food off haha!

Keeping…read moretheir gates open Monday-Sunday with great hours, it's been an amazing addition to Cooper City since it opened in 2019. Whether you're looking to kick or toss a ball on the field, get some steps in on a trail, do some fishing, or let your kids run around on a sizable playground you can do it here. Most notably, it's free for everyone to visit! The main star of the show here are the 4 turf fields that offer hundreds of yards of space to play sports on. It's not hard to miss just how nicely done it is also. Being mainly for soccer, there's nets of all sizes to utilize. I'd think a complex like this would be only available to teams but it's awesome to see it's treated like the other sports complexes in the area. If running around on a field isn't your thing there's also a paved trail that gives you a nice view of the lake & wetlands area. While it isn't a big trail, I always appreciate things that promote exercising & being around nature. Want to hang outside without burning in the sun? There's also pavilions that offer plenty of shade with tables to sit at underneath. There's multiple water fountains, a concessions stand & vending machine at the center. Parking isn't an issue as there's a massive lot out front, they've done it all right here. I'm glad this complex is right down the road because I've made it a regular spot of mine. I have nothing but good things to say & suggest you stopping by if you're in the area.

This park in east Miramar was named in honor of former Miramar City Commissioner A. Joseph Forzano…read moreand his wife Mary Forzano who also served as City Commissioner. The couple moved to Miramar in 1967. Joseph passed away in 1975 and upon his death Mary ran for and won the seat of her husband on Miramar's City Council. Mary passed away in 2019. Forzano Park feels like two parks. On one side is fields for soccer and football with a restroom and concession stands. The restroom was very clean and even had Dyson airblades to dry your hands which is a nice upgrade. On the other side is six sand volleyball courts, a playground, and shelter pavilion. The park isn't very exciting unless you come to play sports. The playground could really use an update but a new $400,000 multi purpose recreational facility is about to open in the park. Forza\no Park is best suited for the Miramar youth athletic leagues.

Driftwood Estates was built from 1960-1979 and consists of 2 to 4 bedroom single-story homes. In 2020 Driftwood Estates Park received $200,000 worth of improvements. Today it has a baseball/ softball field, basketball court, covered playground, restrooms, outdoor fitness stations, a large shelter which can be rented, and a tennis court. My favorite part of the park was the exercise path that runs along the perimeter of the park. As I was walking around I discovered an adorable burrowing owl checking me out. Burrowing owls are considered endangered, threatened or of special concern in nine U.S. states. Unlike other owls they are not strictly nocturnal and are active during the day. They make their nests in underground burrows, which are dug out by ground squirrels and they prefer open grasslands. Burrowing owls are protected by the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act so you have to leave them alone. It was a treat to see this owl and quickly leave him in peace.

This is the same airport that was in the news in March when a plane taking off from the airport tragically crashed into an SUV killing a four year old boy riding in it and two people in the plane. In 1989 Kennedy Park which was named after President Kennedy was renamed in memory of Paul J. Maxwell, who served 12 years on the City Commission from the 1970's until 1986. He served terms as mayor and vice mayor and he volunteered with the youth in the community as a coach and little league official. Mr. Maxwell died of a heart attack on Feb. 6, 1988, at the age of 46. Paul J. Maxwell Park is primarily an active sports park. There are 3 lighted baseball/softball fields, two batting cages, 4 racquetball courts, eight lighted tennis courts, a pavilion, and a sand playground. What makes this park stand out to me is how close it is to the airport. I sat on the bleachers and watched the planes take off and land. This park is best for sports teams, tennis players, child play, and plane enthusiasts.

Luckily there are two restaurants as well as a corner store less than 200 yards from the park(I would go to riverside market so you can grab a bottle of water for the rest of your time at the park). The sidewalk that loops around the park is the only sidewalk in the neighborhood so you will also see people from the neighborhood walking their dogs around the perimeter of the park as a bonus.

The park is located in a beautiful neighborhood, right across the street from the library, making it a perfect spot for families.

Whether you're there for a picnic, to let the kids burn off some energy, or just to enjoy the outdoors, there's more than enough to keep everyone happy. The park does close on Wednesday mornings for landscaping but reopens at noon. On weekends, it definitely gets more traffic, but it never feels overwhelming thanks to the space and layout.
