Lakes Park holds a special place in my heart - I grew up spending many days playing and running races at Lakes. Now I enjoy Lakes for daily runs, tossing the frisbee with friends, picnics, biking and rollerblading. Literally, you wouldn't expect such a great getaway in the middle of Fort Myers, but it's awesome! You can enjoy the sunset... More

There is a place where an individual can have a garden. Children can take a train ride through the park. I like this park because each time I go... More

This is an excellent park to spend an hour or the whole day. Nice walking or biking trails and plenty of wildlife viewing. Also great for kayaking or other human-powered watercraft.

Great place to bring family and go kayaking. A lot of waterfront areas with ducks and gators visible too. I recommend the bike rentals, very reasonable

We not only walk Lakes Park daily for exercise, but take the kids there to play in their water features and have also had several of their birthday parties there with Family and Friends...great place to be on any day!

My husband likes to walk, hike, canoe, and bike. This place offers all of this (and more). We walked on our last visit on trails wide enough for both walkers and the 4-person bikes, stopped to watch the pedal boats, all while taking in the wildlife, fish, and gardens. Topped it off with terrific ice cream too! All for a... More
