Reviews
"I love this place and the trails around the nature center, during the week is so quiet and relaxing. We always see animals. The deers observation deck is awesome."
"This is an outstanding place to visit. It’s located at the northern end of Okeeheelee Park, which is a large Palm Beach County park offering all types of activities. I’ve only been to the Nature Center three times and this was the first time the Nature Center was open. On our latest visit, my wife and I took my mother there to go inside the center and walk on the paths behind the Nature Center The Nature Center itself is great for both kids and adults. Walking in we were greeted by a volunteer who was very friendly and gave us a quick overview of the Nature Center. As other people entered she would greet each group giving them a quick overview and handing out maps and the event schedule. She was eager to answer questions and give us advice on what to do. We happened to be there at feeding time for their owl. The naturalist was also friendly and informative. She spent time telling us about the owl and what else she does at the center. Behind the Nature Center there are a couple of miles of paths and trails. The main paths are paved making easy access for people with walkers, wheelchairs or baby carriages. Benches are located along the path. There are also wooded paths which are never busy. The wooded paths are easy to walk on with trail signs at every intersection. I’ll be back to the Nature Center many times."
"Great experience. We did the guided nature tour with Alex. She was terrific. All of the folks were extremely friendly and there are lots of trails to explore on tour own. Definitely something to check out with the family on a nice weather day."
"A beautiful place to decompress among nature and animals. Great walking trails, bird watching, and deer enclosure. The team at the Nature Center are exceptional: knowledgeable, friendly, committed to the conservation of the Florida ecosystem. The Okeeheelee Park surrounding the center is massive with lots of activity options. It's a great place to hold a picnic, let your kids run around, boat, golf, or sit someplace quiet with a book."
