About the Rob Bradley Conservation Park at Nelson Point
Rob Bradley Conservation Park at Nelson Point, located at 670 Nelson Drive in Orange Park, Florida, is a 10-acre waterfront conservation park on Doctors Lake. Named after Senator Rob Bradley, who played a key role in securing funding to purchase and preserve the land, the park was acquired by Clay County in 2018 and officially opened in 2023. The park offers nature trails, observation areas, and a kayak launch, with ongoing improvements and additions planned.
The history of the park's location dates back to native hunting and trading grounds, as well as British and American colonial periods when it was part of plantations and sawmills. Over the years, the land changed hands and uses, including a fish house that operated on Doctors Lake. In 1948, John Nelson purchased the property and lived there until his passing in 2016.
The park's rich history reflects the story of Orange Park itself, and serves as a reminder of the area's cultural and natural heritage. With its conservation efforts and amenities, Rob Bradley Conservation Park at Nelson Point is a valuable asset to the community, preserving the beauty and history of the land for future generations to enjoy.

Reviews of Rob Bradley Conservation Park at Nelson Point
"Not too much here yet. No restrooms"
"It was closed, but hours say daily until dusk so not sure if it's still open?"
"There is no restroom. Please do not litter as this is a conservation park for area wildlife. It is a nice spot to have a quiet moment and look out at the lake and birds. This is not a playground or a dog park. It is natural. Warning: There are mosquitoes, snakes, and alligators in the area. The ground is unlevel and often muddy. Picnic tables are available courtesy of a local Boy Scout troop. A kayak launch system has recently been added."
"The park is a nice escape and is very quiet. Lots of work still to be done to make it into a perfect Orange Park attraction. If you stick to the walking trail, the going is easier. There are picnic tables but no restrooms. Limited trash receptacles are available, so it is best to pack your trash out with you. Not a lot for kids to do. Lots of space is available for fishing along the bank of Doctors Lake as well as a few places along the slough. If you want to enjoy the lake, bring a chair and enjoy the breeze and gentle lapping of the water. This is a great place to visit and take the dog for a walk. I visited on a Thursday evening for about an hour or so and only saw two local couples walking their dogs."
"Nice area and beautiful view of the lake......this place will look amazing I'm sure once it's completed!"
