Largo Central Park

It’s a park! Great for kids, families or to just sit and read a book. They have a train kids can ride for free once a month. They have different events throughout the year like touchatruck, fireworks for the 4^th, Halloween events and much more all leading up to Christmas when they decorate so beautifully makes for awesome pictures and timeless memories with the family. They also do a tree lighting every year. I love it here.

It’s well-​kept & easy to access. I do not define it so much as a «park» but more of a «lawn». Parks have trees.

This is a beautiful park with plenty of space for the family, friends and you to enjoy the day. There are trails, playgrounds, open spaces, picnic table and benches to suit your needs. It’s just an excellent place to get outside and enjoy our area!

I love this park. It is a dog friendly park where you will find baggies to pick up your dogs waste. Enjoy your time sitting on a bench. There are speakers overhead that play country music. Beautiful sculptures are all around the park. There is an outdoor fitness area where you can exercise. What makes this park so unique is the public library and a cultural center located within. It’s a great place to visit especially for those art enthusiasts. Don’t forget to bring the kids.

Really great park with trees, a playgrounds and other unique finds like the time vault.
It’s located close to the library and the cultural center too, so it’s easy to view other attractions.
This park seems full when I have visited with lots of happy kids. Great place!

Have shows and events all the time. very scenic and entertaining close to library too

Horrible wanna-​be town. They are very dog unfriendly. Go to Largo Central Park adjacent nature trail and their Stazi will kick you out and threaten to fine/​arrest you for having a 9.5 pound dog on leash.

I love this park! Especially around the Holidays! They do such a wonderful job of lighting up the park with christmas lights. The displays are awesome, and they do it all for free. This year I noticed they set up donation boxes for anyone who wants to donate to keep the lights looking beautiful each year which i think is a great idea. This park is definitely fun for the family and its free so what better thing to do to celebrate the holidays than to go walk the park and look at the lights.

its an okay park but it is always full — OVERLY full no matter what time of the day. I prefer John Taylor Park

This is an AWESOME OARK!!! I love going here whenever I’m in town !!! They have a train you can ride and workout equipment and a huge play area for kids!!! They hold events here all the time too!

Beautiful park. Children’s play area is clean and shady with a variety of structures and obstacles to keep children engaged and entertained. Equipment and grounds are well kept. Great location and very convenient to the library. Looking forward to exploring more of this park!

Nice park to take your kids and enjoy the scenery. I will admit its a beautiful park.
However, this is NOT a nice park to walk/​run the trail. You’re better off going to John S Taylor Park which is a few miles ahead. I went here because of the reviews saying its a great place to run and was disappointed when I got there.

Aside from some of the spelling and grammar, these reviewers have it pretty much spot on. This is a great park. One can spend a day and ride a bike around the commons area, visit the library or rec center, or simply let the kids play at the playground. It’s hard to dislike this park.
If you go to the northern most end, you’ll find twisted walking paths, a memorial with a small pond nearby, and plenty of trees. On the western end there is a small train track that runs, once per month, around for the kids to enjoy. My favorite part is the playground with the sensory slides and the vast expanse of AstroTurf to minimize maintenance and dirt (the sand pit throws that off, some).
With a quick drive to the east, taking East Bay, there is a nature preserve to behold. That part of the park is full of wildlife and boarded walking paths, all in the comfortable shade of a multitude of trees and native plant life.
There is, simply, so much to see here that I have a hard time growing bored with Largo Central Park.

Excellent running park for business travelers staying nearby. It’s built exactly as described, like NYC’s Central Park. It’s quiet in the morning, lots of walkers and dog walkers on the path.
It’s not very big, so you end up doing a few loops to get in 2 – 3 miles, but it’s safe and clean. The playground area is absolutely gorgeous for little kids and the equipment looks brand new.

Daaaaaang, downtown Largo has got it going on!
I had no idea that there was a downtown, and that said downtown is totally lacking in Tampa Bay crack-​head population. This place is clean, like Stepford Wives clean, like scientology clean— there is even immaculate landscaping and a train that runs for children and adults like me.
The park is up against the Largo Cultural Center building. And, thanks to the City of Largo the 2014 Chinese New Year Festival was held in this beautiful park, otherwise I never would have visited. Ample parking and so much space! There are plenty of picnic tables and bench seating.
The playground area looks very new or well kept, and I really like that it is in the shade.

This is a fun place to take the kids to play on the park and it’s also a good spots for adults wanting to take a walk around the path under the big shady trees. The playground is exceptional, lots of stuff for kids to play on. The bathrooms here are fairly well kept for being park bathrooms. I really enjoy coming here to see the annual Christmas lights show that runs through the whole month of December. They put alot of effort into creating a fun environment for families and people of all ages.
I’d probably like this park even more if I had kids to bring here, but as an adult I can still appreciate it being a nice place located centrally in Pinellas. Recommended for families without a doubt

This is a great park if you have children, the playground is amazing. It has everything you could want and more, and is always clean. Once a month (I believe) children and adults can ride a train that goes through the park. This is a perfect location for children’s birthday parties as you can reasonably rent a shelter, and you have the playground right there.
There’s also a library right by the park, and it has a fantastic children’s section. There’s also a very nice café in the library. We’ve spent many weekends here, I would definitely recommend it to any parent.

We love Largo Central Park! The best playground in Pinellas County, for sure. I love to let my kids play (they are older) while I walk laps around the park with our beagle. The facilities always seem very well-​maintained. We love the kids’ workout equipment next to the playground!

MY PLAYGROUND
Once my eyes fell upon this awesome playground – the best I’ve ever seen – I knew I had to make it mine. In order to conquer I quickly built up my Popeye-​esque muscles at the free exercise park nearby then ran into the huge playground with guns (the ones on my arms) blazing. There’s always a lot of darn kids but they were too spread out. There’s rope pyramids and rock walls to climb and lots of spinning things to hang on to. Too much to do! I guess all that simple back-​and-​forth hip swinging at the exercise park wasn’t enough.
RUNNING AROUND
Trees. Trees. Trees. Rec center. Trees. Exercise Park. Playground. Trees… Big field! Railroad tracks! The large field was large enough for me to run secret-​military laps. Occasionally a freakin’ baby train would get in my way – no kidding. There’s a baby train running around the park small enough for you to sit one person per row.
BUT IT LOOKS NICE
Look – there’s even art sculptures scattered everywhere. I’m sure those statues are all dedicated to me. Shamed – this clean, creative park could be the fortress for my upcoming kingdom… but I shall leave it alone.

Went here tonight for Christmas festivities as I had passed by one night and noticed a million Christmas Lights.
This was a treat indeed for my child and I. When I got home, I had the feeling like I bought something wonderful but realized nope, I just had a wonderful time with my little one and that’s worth more than anything I could ever buy.
Yes, the Christmas lights were beautiful but I was noticing that people were parking so we got out. It was nice to walk around, besides the typical christmas lights, there were sparkly lights that were on the sidewalks and on you (like a disco ball affect) that made it more personal somehow. And when we got to the playground area it was filled with excited kids, an eclectic mix of and large arrangement of equipment I haven’t seen at the many, many playgrounds I’ve been to previously. Love the creativity and activity it makes possible.
There were couples there, a parent talking to his adult child and I could really sense the families were connecting with each other; that was really awesome.
I will post pictures of the holiday lights soon, but I think it’s definitely worth a 2^nd or even 3^rd trip!
