Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We’ve been to garlic festivals and expected to see a garlic festival. We paid $20 to park and $12 per person to enter and besides the signs there wasn’t garlic! We saw all of the vendors that display their wares at our local crafts and farmers markets. There were tee shirts for sale that said garlic festival but the shirts didn’t look like the festival.
We could’ve bought jewelry, T-shirts, soap, hot sauces, Time shares, oils, jerky, pasta…. There was garlic ice cream and nothing else garlic! The usual slices of pizza, arepas, sliders, beer, sugary awful margaritas for $10 each.
There were some activities for children such as face painting, carnival rides, temporary tattoos, soccer ... for an additional fee.
We could’ve gone to downtown Delray or Clematis Street any weekend, for free, And seen a better collection of food and crafts than the junk that was here. Disappointing!

This park has had a large family appeal for its playgrounds, large free tennis courts, playing flields and large expanse of trails. Over the past years an encampment of homeless and newly arrived nportherners have been squatters in makeshift tents. Crime escalated. restrooms were not safe as they were the bathrooms and shelter for roaming homeless.
Palm beach county is moving out all the homeless to shelters near the South County Fairgrounds. Daytime tennis returns. Family frisbee returns the county is returning this vast greenspace to its citizens.

I walk here daily with my dog. Tree lined beautiful lake with great blue herons, great while herons, peaceful fishing and water sports. Sadly, our representatives are now trying to give this wonderful park to the Alanta Braves for a stadium. Please write, call and protect this great park with a long history in our county. Tell the Lake Worth City Commission and the County to not give away our best assets to satisfy their special interest donors. Keep Palm Beach Beautiful!!

Often visit to go through the jogging trail or stroll. It could be kept cleaner, plus many visitors do not follow the rules; I guess it is a Central American thing. A golf course and driving range nearby, but this park is not on par.

Well over 700 acres includes kids water park, dog park, miles of paved walking and biking trails along the lake, baseball fields, tennis and basketball courts, playgrounds, golf learning center, campgrounds, soccer, and even a cricket field.
Bring your own water gadgets for the large lake. There is a boat ramp for jet skis, ski boats, fresh water fishing boats.
There are many water birds that inhabit the park. And,of course, there are the amazing sunsets!

My daughter had some volunteer walk she had to do for school and when we were there I noticed that the park has some beautiful nature areas, but I wouldn't jog by myself or take a walk. I've seen some dicey people around.

From camping, fishing and boating to running, skating and cycling, this park provides it against the backdrop of beautiful Lake Osborne. There are exercise equipment circuits, tennis courts, a golf course, water playgrounds and fields for soccer games. Some of the best sunsets I've ever seen occur over this lake. An abundance of water fowl, Ibis and even a pair of Pelicans call this park home.

Is this a good place to go kayaking? Is there a kayak launch?
Written 24 March 2019
I don't believe so. Perhaps by the trailer camp area.
