A quiet neighborhood park with playgrounds, courts, and a pond, perfect for stretching your legs between Everglades adventures.
Audubon Park is a low-key neighborhood green space in Homestead, just a short drive from the main entrance to Everglades National Park. It's the kind of place you pull into when you need a break from the car, the kids need to burn some energy, or you just want to sit somewhere quiet for a few minutes.
The playground has separate sections for toddlers and older kids, plus swings and open grass to run around on. A small pond adds a genuinely peaceful vibe, and more than a few visitors mention it as the best part of a quick stop. Bring a blanket and make it a picnic.
Beyond the playground, there are basketball courts, tennis courts, and a bike trail looping through the park. It's nothing elaborate, but it's clean, well-maintained, and free. Dog owners tend to appreciate the walking paths and the calm atmosphere.
If you're spending a few days in Homestead as your base for the Everglades, this is a handy spot to know about. Good for a morning walk before heading into the park, or a relaxed wind-down after a long day on the trails.

We stopped here to kill time before dinner on our vacation. It's a decent park for little kids but my 8 year old was bored. The spiral slide isn't sloped enough and you basically have to crawl down. My younger two had fun however and there swings, a separate section for toddlers, and a pond.

My kids enjoy this park very much, as do I. It has a playground, basketball & tennis court, even a small bike trail. Also, very relaxing, due to the lake.
