This is a beautiful park along the lake. Plenty of unique birds to see. Even saw a bald eagle. The unique Monument of States and near the park.

I recently had a wonderful solo trip to Lakefront Park in Kissimmee, Florida. The park was so tranquil and peaceful, with stunning views of the lake. I was able to take a leisurely stroll along the lakefront path, admiring the beautiful scenery and the wildlife. The park was well-maintained and had plenty of amenities, including picnic tables and benches to sit and relax. The sunset was breathtaking and I was able to take some amazing photos of the lake and the surrounding area. I felt so relaxed and refreshed after my visit and would definitely recommend Lakefront Park to anyone looking for a tranquil evening solo trip.

We have been visiting this part of Florida for almost 35 years and hadn’t been here before. Beautiful park with walk ways, children play areas, picnic areas all on the lake front. It was very hot but we still walked round and saw a limpkin with an apple snail, plus baby birds.
There is a veteran memorial and a monument to the states all worth seeing. You are a short walk from old town Kissimmee which is worth walking round.
We had a slushy at the cafe in the park which was most welcome as we were so hot.

My husband and I (we are from the UK) have just returned from holiday in Orlando. Because of the COVID situation, we were looking to keep outdoors and explore nature reserves and parks, and to photograph the wildlife.
We visited Kissimmee Lakefront Park 3 times, and found parking really easy, and we loved the leisurely walk on the lakefront from Neptune Road to the Marina.
On each occasion we saw alligators, they are easy to spot, just keep looking, and the variety of birds we saw and photographed was amazing. We saw Great Blue Heron, Egrets, Blue Heron, Limpkin, Anhinga, and the beautiful and elusive Green Heron. The Grackle birds were chatty and the red winged Blackbirds were gorgeous.
The walk to the Lighthouse gives great views of the lake.
The park was never busy, and we walked to the historic Main Street and had coffee and cake there.
We would not hesitate to recommend a visit here, it seems many miles away from all the traffic on the 192.

We parked at the Big Toho Marina and went on the bike path that led to Neptune Road. On Neptune Road you travel on a sidewalk and can ride all the way to St. Cloud. The bike route was very scenic, particularly around the lake. The park area around the Marina is great, especially for children. There are several play areas, and you can even have a picnic here. I recommend trying this bike path.

Wonderful Park to visit if you want some quiet time. We saw many birds, the walkways are wonderful; there’s a small very nice spray park for children and a playground. We brought our dog and he just loved walking thru the park.

This place is an absolute gem in an area of tourist traps and noise. We visited and enjoyed the lake front sidewalks, many benches to sit, covered areas, close to town to pick up food or drinks, or one of the park cafes.Birds are abundant and we did see a few alligators. Area very pet friendly. By far worth the visit.

We had a very nice walk here. The sidewalk is not very shady, but there are several shelters, benches and a few trees. Nice little downtown park. Nice to look out over Lake Toho.

Good place for you to walk, run, have a picnic time with friends. The park itself does not have many attractions (yet) but it is close to a sold mall city where you can have an enjoyable time. There is a pier and you can see and maybe interact with the wild nature.
Positive: picnic tables that remind me of Vancouver, Canada.
Negative: Not many picnic tables and only one little covered spot.

I see a lot of pictures of alligators. Is there a separation or a barrier between where you can walk and where they are?

The question you should have asked is how many gator attacks against people have been reported at the lake, that would give you an idea of how safe it is. My estimation from experience is zero for the number of attacks that occurred out of the lake's water line.

Hi, not sure about the movies but there is a couple of basic cafes one at the marina and another about halfway along the lake front. fishing is free but you will need the relevant rod license. For shops your only a short distance from Old Town which has a good array of bars, cafes and shops.
