    Gibson loves this park! We took the foot path walking trail and the shade was fantastic for keeping her cool and the earth path was perfect for dog paws, nose enrichment and joints. Super clean and well maintained path. Great place to walk dogs of all levels and ages. We will be back!

    Went to the park on a whim and glad I did . Nice get away , great trails to get lost and walk around , trails end up at a new sturdy walkway bridge that takes you out to the swamp . Many animals running around to see , great foliage and just a nice clean park . Definitely stop and take a walk Ohh and it is free !!

    Beautiful park. There are several pavilions with well maintained restrooms, a nice dock out over the lake, a three-story observation tower, hiking trails, bike paths, camping. And the trees are phenomenal. Gorgeous views and lots of shade.

    Lots of space! Has accessible paths to tower and boat ramp. Some paved trails. Gorgeous old oak trees in abundance.

    I really enjoy coming here. I live next county over, and initially came along to help because my family members belong to a club for Train Enthusiasts which is located in the park. However, I love the trains and love this park as a whole. The trails, the pavilions, the camping areas, the amphitheater- what a functional beauty! It’s an amazing its location in the woods. I wonder if I can get married here… seriously. I see families with their children, grandparents even great-grandparents with little ones. The playgrounds are very nice and modern, there is a sports fields and plenty of parking all around. Large visible bathroom buildings always clean and no shortage of toilet tissue or soap for hand washing. ( I’m here usually 3 - 5 days in a row every month and I love exploring this wilderness park on foot and while riding my E-bike. Waving at others on bikes, hoverboards, rollerblades, I’m bringing my roller skates next time. An early skate before the park gets busy then an afternoon walk on the trails will be my next adventure here. It really is heart warming to me when I see disabled persons both young and old in a wheelchair or motorized scooter; seeing these people being able to enjoy the experience of nature truly is priceless plus the absolute fun the open air train rides are. Many smiles on many faces. This is what I see when I’m out and about exploring or helping out with the trains. A very beautiful natural wilderness park. Indeed a Gem. 1 of many different cool places Pasco County has to offer its residents and to all who visit. Kudos to the Ranger and his team here.

    Great wilderness park, lots of flora and fauna. Terrific pavilions, and great areas of playgrounds for the kids. Second visit for group picnic and was just as nice as the first visit.

    Beautiful park. Lots of areas to walk and explore, picnic areas too. I miss the three story climbing tower that used to be here. That gave an amazing view of the lake.

    Nice, and peaceful. Drop a pin if you decide to do nature trail. I may of got on a less traveled path.

    Crews Lake is one of a kind for the area. On top of various nature trails, this is a very kid and animal friendly park. Be sure to fully explore the various trails and areas! The train is up and running often as well. The only bittersweet change would be the loss of the tower, but the boardwalk and updated amenities help the park keep its charm.

    This park is located about a mile from the Suncoast Trail, so it's also a good place to take a break or start a ride. Restrooms, a drinking water fountain, pavilions, and plenty of parking and shade make this an excellent park. There's also a fenced in area to let your dog run.

    The pier is the best part in our opinion. Very beautiful and a lot of lily pads. They have a train for the kids. A nice place for huge parties. People brought their dogs and they look happy there. On the down side there isn’t more than that. Their little garden and pond were in bad shape. We left after 45 minutes because we got bored. We went there to hike.

    Beautiful park but the lake is a swamp. Great for walking, hiking and letting your dog stretch their legs.

    This is a beautiful park with a lot to offer. Picnic pavilions galore for family and group enjoyment with built-in grills and access to water at each pavilion. The lake doesn't really exist anymore, but the marsh lands offer a beautiful photo op. I didn't take a 35 digital, but my phone took some nice pics. This park offers primitive camping. The campsites share a community shower and a very large single toilet porta-john. I only rated 4 stars because they no longer provide flyers or maps, so you pretty much have to figure things out on your own.

    If you like a lot of trails and paths through the woods, this is a good spot. Bike paths too.

    The observation tower is no longer there. The peer that juts out into the lake is nice and peaceful. Trails to walk and camping is normally available. Multiple playgrounds, and there is a train hobby club that normally runs on the holidays.

    We usually have the family gatherings here. We had the family reunion here last weekend and my husband ended up finding a tick on him when we got home so just be careful! The park is absolutely beautiful and the pavilions are huge.

  • 5/5 Arcturian V. 3 years ago on Google
    Highly recommend!!!! This is an absolute amazing place to tent camp with beautiful walking trails. The park is very clean & well maintained. There is an outdoor shower with privacy around it. The park ranger David, is extremely welcoming. He even brings you wood for your camp fire rIng. As with any outdoor camping, make sure you put away all your food, even dog food even if it’s in a container. I neglected to bring my styrofoam ice chest & dog food in containers inside my tent or securely put out of sight. Fire went out in the night & raccoons had a feast getting in my styrofoam chest & ate a half dozen eggs, carried the biscuits in a can off with dog food in small containers. Had Emergen C packets on table & they tried to bust them open, but guess they decided they didn’t like them. I actually thought this was pretty funny, so not upset at raccoons at all. Had a great experience at this place. There is a beautiful lake to see, some amazing birds & gorgeous foliage. It is a rather large park. Thank you park ranger David.

    Awesome little park. Great observation tower. In the summer with the lilly pads you cannot even see the lake.

  • 5/5 Michael A. 4 months ago on Google β€’ 43 reviews
    Really great , helpful staff, after registration I stopped by to check in, met Bill, one of the staff. Campsite is away from parking and Bill helped load my gear on his all terrain vehicle right to my site. Great playground for the kids, basketball court, nature trails, the amphitheatre is so cool. Overall fantastic experience

  • 5/5 Liliia K. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is a unity with nature. Entrance to the park is free. Old trees fascinate with their beauty. From the pier there is a view of the lake, it is all covered with water lilies. Today I managed to hear the roar of alligators. At this time of the year, males call females with a wild cry.

  • 5/5 Robert J. 3 years ago on Google
    Had a wonderful day with family. Very clean park with majestic Oaks. Lots of shade.

  • 5/5 Jessica J. 3 years ago on Google
    Fun place, been going there my whole life, saw a gator the other day just chilling in the water lol

  • 5/5 Loving_Lioness 4 months ago on Google
    Nice Park! Sadly the lake water line is incredibly low but that's just across the state right now. Not specific to this park. Lots of paths to escape from humans! And if you stay quiet you will definitely observe wildlife! PS. Please don't be the douchebag to throw trash into the lake from the dock. (Yes there are a few pieces there) If you enjoy nature enough to visit this park why would you pollute it at the same time?

  • 5/5 Larissa A. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a hidden gem in shady hills. A beautiful park to take your dog. Have a lovely picnic. Plenty of shade, nice walking trails and biking ones too

  • 5/5 srt_life 8. 3 years ago on Google
    Bring my family here all the time great place to be clean fun safe and every so often you can catch a real train ride πŸš‚

  • 5/5 Michelle H. 1 year ago on Google
    We've driven by here several times since we moved to Florida in 2022. We finally went for the Earth Day Celebration. We didn't see much of the park besides where the Celebration was held and driving in and out. We did see they have trails so we definitely want to go back and walk those sometime. What we did see looked nice so im rating it 5 stars without walking around more. There's a few picnic tables, a pavilion and playground equipment. They were doing train rides that day but we didn't see where it was. I spotted a family of Sandhill Cranes closer to the lake. That was exciting πŸ˜„

  • 5/5 Lori L. 1 year ago on Google
    What a beautiful park! Spent the whole day with family and I couldn't have had a better day. The tranquility and the bird's! They have nice trails to venture out on. Definitely worth checking out.

  • 5/5 Sarah D. 10 months ago on Google
    5 year Olds dream place with lots of shade and trails, parks, train ride, playground, nature walks with little areas for shows etc. Super cool place for a few hours. All free with $1 donations asked for the train per person. Awesome. Awesome. Awesome.

  • 5/5 Edward B. 3 years ago on Google
    Been going here for over 20 years now. Great park

  • 3/5 Shane D. 3 years ago on Google
    Huge park with lots to do: many trails, good size lake, the list goes on. What was disappointing was lack of trail maintenance, poor signage and out of date maps. I would gladly pay an entry fee to go toward the potential awesomeness this park has. If I lived closer, I would volunteer. Still, it's a great place to get outside, have a picnic and see some of the beauty of FL nature.

  • 5/5 Reid E. 3 years ago on Google
    Very peaceful and scenic.

  • 5/5 Daniel W. 3 years ago on Google
    Hidden Gem. Wonderful place to get some outdoors in your life. Take the whole family for hikes and even camping. If you plan to fish, bring a small canoe or boat πŸš£β€β™€οΈ. Lakeshore fishing difficult because of lilly pads, but big fish are in it!

  • 5/5 Mike V. 3 years ago on Google
    This place NEVER fails to impress!!! Aside from the distant noise of the expressway nearby......Crews lake has got it going on!!! PLENTY of nature trails, camp sites are well maintained...lots of pavilions for personal get togethers, and even has a few play areas for the little ones! Soccer/football field's! ...andcare you ready for this?......A TRAIN!!!!......THAT YOU AND YOUR FAMILY CAN RIDE ON!!!!!!!! How amazing is that!?!?!? The ONLY two things I would say that could possibly be , remotely negative, is the tower! It burnt down a while ago.....so bring it back! Gorgeous views of theclake are SURELY missed by ALL the locals. There's plenty of space, maybe add a few more playgrounds so the one larger one they have isn't so bombarded!

  • 5/5 Rich B. 3 years ago on Google
    Quiet and well maintained trails. Peaceful and tranquil. Will return.

  • 5/5 Alicia R. 3 years ago on Google
    It is so beautiful there. I wish they would build another tower!

  • 5/5 Lisa S. 3 years ago on Google
    Peaceful. Had a picnic lunch. Restrooms were available. Good walking trails

  • 5/5 Joshua A. 3 years ago on Google
    We have rented the cabin here on two different occasions, over the last 3 years, with the most recent being the weekend of the 13th through the 15th... And we love it! It's not expensive at all, the kids love it too... The only thing I would suggest is renting it in the cooler parts of the year, as there is no AC unit(s) (our first time it was so hot it was not pleasant to sleep in)... Other than that, this place is amazing!

  • 5/5 Christopher H. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 TeamOf L. 3 years ago on Google
    Love this place. Really nice trails and a great lake

  • 4/5 Warren W. 3 years ago on Google
    We've been to this park many times, saw Santa there even. The kids like it, there are swings and playground stuff and quite a few trails through the woods and they have a train that runs through the park also. Don't know what the hours are for the train though. All in all a nice place to take the kids.

  • 5/5 dan V. 3 years ago on Google
    Great place to take the dogs for a walk. Nice and quiet when i go. I have seen many boats out there fishing as well. Give it a try.

  • 4/5 Supun B A. 3 years ago on Google
    The place is well maintained. There is no fee to park or enter. Nothing much to see but a serene place to visit to calm your nerves and embrace the nature. A office is there at the park for any queries. Public toilet is there at the site. An ok place to go for a change.
